Tired of oats with (peanut butter, raisins, berries, maple, whatever-you-put-on it)? Oatmeal is my favorite and not the slimy overnight type but honest to goodness cooked stovetop oats that take a few minutes. I have ventured away from time to time just to mix it up and have found some really tasty bowls that (almost) rival my beloved bowl of oats. In some cases switch up how I think of eating oats.
Often bowls are more like lunch or dinner and get called breakfast bowls because there is an egg perched on top. Fair enough. Breakfast for dinner is a thing after all. There are no rules around what to eat when and for the curious open minded eater I have some ideas for you, my friend. You are in good company here.
Let me tell you about them.

This bowl is full of flavor and texture! Once you get all the mix ins you can make many many bowls and the sweet potato base can be prepped to eat all week. Just heat up a portion and top. done!
Seasoned with cinnamon, turmeric, ginger, black pepper, tahini and more makes the base high in flavor. Then top with nuts, greek yogurt, maple syrup and coconut and you will be addicted. I veered from the recipe and also add cardamom because I can’t help myself with cardamom. Either way it’s very cravable!
