Does Your Breakfast Make You Amazing?

10 Mar

Thank you guys for all of your lovely comments on Monday’s Post! :) I absolutely LOVED talking to you guys about YOUR memories of your grandmothers! I am so glad that you guys enjoyed my cookies!!! My Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin Cookies are definitely on the top of my list!!! :D

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! :D And with my College Algebra CLEP Test coming up really soon (I’m taking it THIS Monday!!!!), I know that I will need to have a filling and satisfying breakfast to keep me fueled! :D

I love how with Breakfast, there are so many AMAZING possibilities!!!

A couple examples:

Pizzerts!

A Tropical Pizzert (Chocolate Style) 

Topped with Pineapple, Almond Butter, Dried Cranberries, Mini Chocolate Chips, Sliced Almonds, and Shredded Coconut!

Pizzerts are one of the best accomplishments of mankind! Yes, I mean that seriously! :)

OIAJ!

I had my first OIAJ (Oats In A Jar) the other day!!!! :D

Oats, Cocoa Powder, Cinnamon, Chopped Apple, and some Mini Chocolate Chips, all in an OIAJ-worthy Jar of Peanut Butter! :D

I.am.speechless. It was so good!!! I am most definitely making it again!!! I love how using the jar as a bowl makes sure you get every drop of the precious gold found inside a Jar of Peanut Butter. :)

Fortunately for me, I have an Almond Butter Jar almost ready for some OIAJ action soon. :) WHAT FLAVOR SHOULD I MAKE?

Muffins!

Like these Muffins that are stocked full of Fruits and Vegetables! :D

And Cereal!

Yesterday, I received this lovely gift in the mail!

 

First off, that box is so adorable!!!!! :D I love the little bow on top!!!

Inside I found a treasure:

A mini box of cereal.

You guys know how much I love things mini, so I went crazy when I saw that little guy. :)

Thank you Heather!!! :D I can’t wait to try it! :D

………………………………….

With so many AMAZING breakfast possibilities, it will be hard to choose what I want on Monday. :)

Do you like the word amazing? Amazing is a personal favorite of mine, and you can consistantly catch me red-handed, guilty of AT LEAST one of the following:

1. You may find this on my papers….

2. Or you may find this on my white board….

(Now I wonder how that got there? ;) )

3. Or  you might even find me admiring the side panel of cereal boxes.

But no matter what I decide to have on Monday before my CLEP test, I know that my breakfast will always make me amazing. ;)

Do you agree with the cereal box? Does your breakfast make you amazing??? :)

    Yup, your breakfast makes YOU amazing. Or maybe you’re just amazing anyway. Yup, that’s it.

    You’d still be amazing if you ate cardboard for breakfast. But I’m glad you don’t, because your incredible pizzert flavor variations are much more fun to look at than cardboard!

    OIAJ with almond butter sounds sooo good!! Maybe you could top it with some slivered almonds, coconut and chocolate or carob chips to be like almond joy oats?

    You ARE AMAZING, KAT!!

    And you should make almond, chocolate, banana oats next-just made some today and they rockkkk!

    But actually, my fav flavor for almond butter oats is mixing in a baked sweet potato and some cinnamon. Kinda like a sweet potato pie :)

    Oooh I’ve never put chocolate in my oatmeal but I really do – that OIAJ looks so creamy and delicious! I’d like to think my breakfast makes me amazing too, I stick to whole grains and fruits and I change it up a bit every day to keep me excited about breakfast. I always feel well-fueled after. :)

    I don’t understand why there are people who don’t eat breakfast, for me, the most important dish is breakfast. I would even get up early if I am running out of time to make my breakfast.

    Breakfast is totally my favorite meal of the day, and I can honestly say that when my breakfast sucks, so does the rest of my day!! Maybe its all mental, but I swear a good and delicious breakfast makes my day great. Without it, the day just seems sort of blah!

    I seriously could not live without a good, hearty breakfast!! :D I agree agree that it is the BEST meal!! Especially during finals week! And tomorrow, I’m taking my oatmeal + peanut butter + berries + green tea to school to eat during my chemistry final (I’m taking it early in the morning). I’m SUPER excited! I’m probably the only one at my school who gets excited about taking their breakfast to school ;)

    AMAZING – I use it all the time and, you’re right – it is the perfect word do describe breakfast!! It definitely makes everyone who eats it amazing and especially makes YOU amazing (just like you all ready are :D )

    AMAZING luck to you from me on your CLEP test! I know you will rock it!! :D

    With breakfasts as amazing as yours, your breakfasts definitely make you amazing!! I think breakfast makes me amazing because it starts off my day on a good note.

    Good luck on your CLEP test! I bet pumpkin or apple pie oats would be delicious with almond butter. Pumpkin oats are my favorite!!

    Breakfast is totally amazing! I keep reading about this OIAJ thing! How do I got about prepping this oh-so-delicious looking breakfast? I’m almost at the end of my dark chocolate dreams peanut butter jar, and I need to try these OAIJ. Do you cook the oats and just store them in the jar?

    Reply
    • katshealthcorner March 11, 2011 at 9:52 pm #

      Yah. This is the way I do it.

      (1) I cook my oats. (2) Next, I mix in whatever mix-ins I would like. (3) Then, I transfer my oats from my cooking pan/bowl to my close-to-finished Jar of Peanut Butter. (4) I add toppings of choice and (5) DIG IN!!! :D
