Good Afternoon!
I started the day off with the best bowl of oats! It is cherry season and they are so good and good for you. Cherries are not only good for you, but they’re also on trend as a “Super Fruit.
Cherries are packed with powerful antioxidants. In fact, they have among the highest levels of antioxidants – containing about the same as blueberries.
I had a great bowl of oats topped with fresh cherries and sliced almonds. Yum! It tasted like a bowl of fruit crisp to me without all the sugar.
Fresh Cherry Almond Oats
1 cup water
1/2 cup rolled oats
Cook for 4-5 minutes or until desired consistency.
Remove from heat and top with:
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
1 tablespoon wheat germ
1/2 cup sliced cherries
1 tablespoon sliced almonds
Drizzle of Amber Agave Nectar
It was a great way to start the day. I then headed off to teach Baby Boot Camp in the garage since there was lightning and thunder and eventually rain. I love the rain! We desperately need it, especially my garden and the rain did eventually come. Yah!
I came home and got a 30 minute run on the treadmill and started baking a Fresh Peach Coffee Cake for one of my clients who just got home from having surgery. She is a real go getter and does not like down time and unfortunately will have to be home with very little activity for the next 4 weeks. She is so cute.... she is already going nuts so we are going to drop off a little treat and pay a visit to her.
