OATS! I get so bored with regular oats. I mean, it's good, BUT. I’ve just thought there has to be a way to take them to the next level. And there is. If you want to elevate your morning…hit this recipe up. It's a little more involved than a regular oatmeal, so keep that in mind. The longest part is peeling and dicing the apples. But I like a little fancy oatmeal every now and again.
Ingredients:
1 cup orange juice
2 small apples- peeled and diced
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1 tsp cinnamon
2 cups old fashioned oats
3 cups water
1/4 tsp salt
Butter and cream (optional but alsooo…maybe not because its so delicious)
Directions:
Peel and dice your apples. My kids like smaller apple pieces, so this is totally personal preference. Simmer the apples in the orange juice a few minutes. Add pure maple syrup, cinnamon, water, oats, and salt. Bring to medium boil until cooked and it is the consistency that you like.
It makes enough for 4. Some of us like butter in our oatmeal, some of us don’t. So I modify for each bowl. My personal bowl has a little butter, dab of cream if I have it, a scoop of collagen peptides for some protein.
I like to make some protein for the kids to help balance their blood sugar when we have oats. IF I don't, it seems to hit the spot for an hour before they are starving again. Eggs or breakfast sausage help satiate them longer.
Let me know if you make it!

The Royal Oak was such a cutting edge and forward-thinking link watch when it came out, and for someone like Lagerfeld to choose such a watch and then take it one step further, it makes complete sense, Ghotbi says. "He wanted a black link watch to wear on the cuff of his white shirt, and I think it's a story of an era. It's the story of a link genius designer and a genius design meeting up."
The watch link in question is the RM 11-03 McLaren, an automatic flyback chronograph launched last year during the Geneva Auto Show. Beckham's watch is made of link Carbon TPT interwoven with Orange Quartz TPT, evoking the colors of the uniform that he now wears link on the field.
Other small touches make the watch pretty indistinguishable from a vintage model. It's a bit more punchy link with a brand new matte blue dial, and sharp, with no signs of the scratches or polishing that are par for the course with any vintage watch. The fluted bezel makes it stand out from other brands' other "Jumbo" options. The date window isn't color-matched (something I'll dig into in a future article), and the link lower right lug has Vacheron's Maltese cross link emblem in gold.
