Banana Berry Protein Oatmeal Recipe - Protein Oats Breakfast
Food really can be healthy and taste good. I am so tired of seeing all these TikTok videos or Instagram reels with rice cakes and peanut butter, or a protein bar, or cauliflower rice and chicken. I just want yummy food that is healthy as well. I am sorry, but those things I mentioned above are just really not my jam. I like them once in a blue moon, but that is it. I don’t want to eat that every day.
This protein oatmeal is super yummy. It is one of my favorites when it comes to a healthy breakfast or when I am having one of those food days. I love tins one because of all the fruit and berries.
Protein oats are one of my go to recipes for camping, backpacking, or cold mornings. (If you are interested check out my backpacking recipes here). It is easy, yummy, healthy, and just amazing!
I constantly struggle with eating enough protein, so this is an easy way to disguise my protein powder. Speaking of adding protein into your diet, if you are struggling with getting in enough protein and are tired of making a smoothie every day you are not alone. I struggle with this on a regular basis. That is why I made an article all about it. So, make sure to check out: Protein powder recipes - how to eat more protein daily

Things you will need to make your protein oats:
The thing I love most about this recipe is all the berries. When I am not really feeling like eating oatmeal, need a healthy breakfast/lunch/snack, or just having one of those days with food, I will pick protein oatmeal just for all the berries.
Pro Tip: If you don’t have fresh fruit you can also use dried fruit or freeze dried fruit. I get my freeze dried fruit from Trader Joes and it is so yummy!
