Clockwise: almonds, organic shredded coconut, low-fat milk, raisins, cacao nibs and of course, rolled oats.
What if breakfast was just a few seconds away?
Without having to chop or use the stove?
Without creating any mess?
All that’s required is mixing all ingredients together and waiting as much – or as little – as 10 minutes. And what’s the best part?
It’s HEALTHY!
Are you yanking my chain?
Nope I’m not. This recipe is insanely EASY which is makes it perfect for you!
Why?
Because mornings are often stressful and rushed. Yes, there are ways to make morning routines easier for everyone, but nothing can beat whipping up breakfast in a flash.
Literally.
Okay, okay, tell me about it already!
Oatmeal on the run is a recipe from Chris Johnson’s On Target Living.
Takes less than 30 seconds to make — and kids will love making their own bowls.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of raisins
- 1/4 cup almond milk (I used low-fat milk)
Procedure:
Mix everything together in a bowl or plastic food container. Place in the fridge overnight or let it sit for 10 minutes before eating. That’s it!!!
Other toppings:
- shredded coconut
- slithered almonds
- cacao nibs
- dried cherries
- other fresh fruits
- whatever you like with oatmeal
Should I try this healthy breakfast recipe for my family?
Most definitely. All you need is to grab the ingredients from the grocery store and you’re all set.
Put ingredients, seal container, pop in the refrigerator. Easy peasy!
Note: A big thank you to the folks at On Target Living for sending me this healthy breakfast. Disclaimer Policy

I sometimes eat it in the car on my way to work – luckily I don’t have to drive.
This sure looks delicious but unfortunately, I recently discovered I am allergic to oats. Anyway, I will try this with my kids if they want this kind of oat preparation.

Really? Did you like oats prior to finding out that you’re allergic? Yeah, hope your kids the preparation; they can even experiment with the topings!
A hands-on fun breakfast that’s easy too?? I do love it.
It’s almost unbelievable haha! Thanks for dropping by, Rosey and hope you’ve tried it already!
Oh we do soaked oatmeal all the time in our house. We use almond, coconut, soy and, if I actually have access, raw cream and put all kinds of fruits into it. We also do this with farro and buckwheat too. Delicious!

This is an answered prayer. Mornings are always crazy, as it’s such a struggle to get my daughter to eat her breakfast in as little time as possible. I’ve never tried oats with my daughter, though. I hope she likes it
. I might substitute the raisins with something else…

It’s a super easy recipe- and it has to be especially since I can actually follow it. Yeah, throw in other “healthy” toppings that your daughter would like.
I’m trying to embrace this recipe, but I think I’ll have to taste it to believe it. I love love love cooked oatmeal, though, so I will step out and give this recipe a go! I love trying new foods wherever I travel, so why not try something new at home?

Not a huge fan. I will have it from time to time. I did just try a different oatmeal recipe I found on pinterest- not good at all.
