Hot Chocolate Oatmeal?!?!

When you combine two of your favorite things, its bound to end fabulously. I mean seriously hot chocolate and oatmeal equates to comfort and love. This is a creamy and warming dish that will leave you extremely satisfied. Its also an amazing way to wake up, since sometimes that's a struggle. 😪 Anyhow, I know you guys really just want the recipe, so here it is!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of water
• 3/4 cup of almond milk
• 1 1/2 tbsp of cacao powder
• 5 dates (2-3 medjool dates) chopped
• Pinch of salt (1/8 tsp)
• 1 cup of oats
• 1 tbsp of flax seed

Directions:

1. Add the water, almond milk, cacao powder, dates and salt to a pot and bring the mixture to a boil (If you leave it at this, you got yourself some hot chocolate- for a smoother taste, blend it so all the date pieces are blended). 
2. Once the mixture is boiling, add the oats and flax seeds to the mix.
3. Continuously stir the mixture till the oats have thickened up to your desired consistency. You may add more almond milk if you like it less thick and more creamy. 
4. Now you can add your favorite toppings from peanut butter to berries to banana slices. 

Healthy Creamy Deliciousness 😋

Enjoy!!!
