I have come to notice that almost all of my recipes are made after I get home from a bike ride and hungry. Well, this one was no different. I came home from my ride and decided on blueberry coconut protein oatmeal. I already had oatmeal for breakfast, but you can never go wrong with oatmeal, even for dinner.
We didn’t have just blueberries at the house, so I had to go through the frozen fruit bag and pick out a bunch of blueberries. It is ironic because I would always get mad at my sister when she would just eat a certain berry out of it, and now I am doing the same thing. But I guess sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
I ended up eating all of the oatmeal that the recipe made, but realistically it makes two good sized servings. My stomach is like a bottomless pit sometimes. Actually, it is a bottomless pit all of the time. Sometimes when I am ordering at a restaurant, the waitress gives me a look that says “You are really going to eat all that?” Every time I make sure to clean my plate. Eating is one thing that I don’t think I will ever have trouble with.
Anyway, enough of my rant about eating. This oatmeal was so delicious and definitely was a good way spruce up oatmeal which can sometimes be painfully boring. The blueberry and coconut flavors together were fantastic. I also added an egg white in during the cooking process. It add some more protein, and gives a much more creamy texture.
I added my vanilla combat powder as well which upped the protein per serving to 20 grams. Then I topped it with more blueberries, shredded coconut, and some vanilla cupcake coconut butter. The crunch from that shredded coconut was delicious!
