Curious what flavor or brand lite vinaigrette everyone is using for the quinoa salad. Need some ideas and inspiration

[pholoylwbrkrdParticipant]

1 part vinegar 3 parts oil
Use herbs as you desire for flavor
Salt pepper to taste as you desire
Use emerging blender to cream up

Small teaspoon of mustard amps up the spice and creamy consistency to a homemade dressing

I dont add sugar. I use champagne or apple cider vinegar or go to specialty store that sells flavored vinegars (watch sugars) 😉

For meal 2 option 1 on the off day I tore up the 2 muffins, mixed them in to the yogurt then substituted almond butter for the butter mixing that in as well. I had a little fat and calories to spare so I used 1T almond butter. It didn’t look great but tasted fantastic.

I’ve never been an oatmeal eater. Please share your favorite recipes or the clever ways you prepare/consume oatmeal. Convert me to be an oatmeal eater.

Make pancakes Grind up the oats and use the exchange list to add eggs, and baking powder. Or make french toast using the exchange list.

Klaplante921: I put my oatmeal in a shake. Often times I dont have time to eat in the morning so I make a shake with the following ingredients Yogurt, fruit, protein powder, oatmeal and a little water to get the thickness the way I like it. I mix in my bullet so everything blends well. Hope that helps! Oh, I also add my multi-vitamins to it… I have this thing right now where I gag at the thought of swallowing a pill 😂

I prefer the texture of oat bran to oatmeal. It is smoother, more like cream of wheat. My go to way to flavor is a healthy dose of cinnamon, 1 tsp coconut sugar or a splash of honey, a pinch of salt. If my meal plan calls for a fat I stir in 1 tablespoon peanut butter or almond butter. I’ve also added spice like cardamom, nutmeg, clove. You could add some cocoa powder to make a chocolate version. It isn’t fancy but it satisfies my tastebuds!

I use the Newman’s Own Lite Balsamic Vinagerette. Delicious!

I’m not a cooked oatmeal eater either but I have been putting in a bowl the dry oatmeal, frozen blueberries and cooked ground turkey. I microwave it for just over a minute then add some cinnamon to it and mush it all together. Doesn’t sound appealing but I really like it. I eat the turkey bacon on the side.
