It's true what they say: Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. In fact, studies show
that breakfast skippers aren't as successful at weight loss as those
who eat a nutritious morning meal. But don't eat just any old breakfast!
These Hungry Girl breakfasts are as satisfying and simple as they are delicious and diet friendly...
Growing Oatmeal Bowl
What is it? A serving of old-fashioned oatmeal that's been cooked with twice the amount of liquid and for double the amount of time as standard oatmeal. The end result is a huge portion of hot cereal!
Why it's filling: The key is those old-fashioned oats (go, Quaker!), which are wholesome, high in fiber, and seriously satisfying. And since small portions can leave us feeling hungry and deprived, the super-sized serving is a major plus. Dairy milk adds filling protein.
How-to: In a nonstick pot, combine 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats, 1/4 tsp. cinnamon, a dash of salt, 3/4 cup fat-free milk, 1/8 tsp. vanilla extract, and 1 1/4 cups water. Bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer. Cook and stir until thick and creamy, 12 - 15 minutes. Let cool slightly to thicken, and sweeten to taste!
