Here’s a lil’ sumptin’ that might help with any breakfast cravings for oatmeal:

1/2 Roasted Acorn Squash, pureed (any other winter squash like Kabocha, Butternut, or Delicata would work too)
1 TBS. Almond Butter
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1-2 TBS. Ground Flax Seeds (grind whole seeds immediately before use)
1/2 tsp.
Pure Maple Syrup - the REAL stuff (if desired…the squash is usually sweet enough, after roasting, on it’s own)

Squish the squash, almond butter, and cinnamon in a bowl.
Sprinkle with flax and drizzle with maple syrup (if using).
Grub.

This would make a great post-workout snack or can be eaten in the morning served with sausage or bacon and eggs.
