Stay Lean and Green with these 6 Everyday Easy-to-fix Oat Recipes

For the umpteenth time, you try and try but just can’t seem to get your diet right.

Plans are made. Oaths are sworn. Motivation quotes are plastered everywhere, but our time-strapped schedules often render our resolve to have a clean diet futile.

Well, no one said it was easy to maintain a clean diet but these 6 simple everyday oat fixes will have you right on track to a lean and green diet easily.

  1. Savoury Oatmeal with Avocado and Poached Egg

If you think all oatmeal is sweet-tasting, you thought wrong. There is a twist to this avocado oatmeal – the umami-filled taste. What’s more, the nutrient-dense avocados are loaded with healthy monounsaturated fats (that keep you lean instead).

Simply whip up this savoury dish with Quaker’s Rolled Oats and some freshly-sliced avocados and a poached egg for some yolk action.

2. Healthy Matcha Green Tea Overnight Oats

This refreshing oat fix can easily be made within minutes using Quaker’s Rolled Oats.

3. Savoury Spinach Cauliflower Oatmeal

You can have the best of both worlds – your morning smoothie and wholesome oats mixed in a hearty bowl of green goodness.

It only takes five minutes to prepare this with Quaker’s Rolled Oats, giving you plenty of time to zip around town for some errand-running.

Spinach oatmeal pancakes are now a thing. You’re just not a pancake lover if you haven’t tried it.

Blend away and you get a decadent-looking – yet not the least bit sinful – lean treat with some Quaker’s Rolled Oats and healthy green spinach.

Now this is one dish Popeyes will be approving.

6. Vanilla Mint Overnight Oatmeal Smoothie

Fuel up for a busy schedule ahead with a zesty touch of mint in your morning spinach oatmeal smoothie.

Spinach is a low-calorie and lean superfood filled with a myriad of essential nutrients such as iron and magnesium. Another super green – kale – is also an ideal substitute, which pairs well with Quaker’s Rolled Oats too.

For once, the idea of a lean and green diet isn’t that distant and unattainable.
