This week’s meal is a seasonal pre-workout packed with carbs and protein to give you that extra kick during your workout. For those of you who love utilizing the flavors of fall, freshly picked apples go perfectly with this quick, 15 minute snack.

Ingredients:

  • 150-180g Apple- typically the size of a medium apple (Whichever kind you prefer)
  • 30g Old Fashioned Oats
  • 150g Danon Greek Yogurt, Vanilla (Feel free to substitute your favorite flavor)
  • Cinnamon to taste
  • Stevia/Truvia to taste

Tools:

  • Small pot
  • 1 bowls
  • Kitchen Scale
  • Spatula
  • Spoon
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife

Directions:

  1. Add oats to small pot. Fill with ~13-12 cup of water (almond milk or milk) or until the top of the oats are covered.
  2. Stir in cinnamon and stevia/Truvia, if desired.
  3. Turn stove to high heat and let the oats/seasonings mixture heat until the oats start to bubble.
  4. Reduce heat to low and stir the oat mixture. This process is similar to cooking oatmeal on the stove.
  5. Chop up the apple into cubes. Feel free to remove the peel, if desired. I leave the peel on for extra crunch.
  6. Mix in 12 of the apples with the oatmeal.
  7. Add 14 of the apples and 12 of the Vanilla Greek Yogurt to the bottom of a heat-safe bowl.
  8. The oatmeal/apples mixture is fully cooked when the apples are soft and 80%+ of the water has been absorbed by the oats.
  9. Pour the oatmeal/apples mixture into the heat-safe bowl.
  10. Top with the remaining 14 apples and 12 of the Vanilla Greek Yogurt.
  11. Sprinkle with cinnamon and stevia/Truvia, if desired.
  12. Let cool and enjoy!
