BreakfastSalad


Breakfast Salad with Leftover Oatmeal








Ingredients:

  • Stalk of Celery
  • Carrot, scrapped
  • Banana
  • Pear
  • Apple
  • Grapes
  • Berries
  • Walnuts or Almonds
  • Cold Oatmeal, leftover
  • Chunk of ginger


Preparation:
  1. Dice all into bite size pieces
  2. Squeeze the ginger in a garlic press over salad
  3. Mix
  4. Eat
This is one of those no recipe ideas that has become a staple.

Had the leftover oatmeal and started by adding grapefruit sections, celery, walnuts, and ginger. Liked it so much, that now use whatever fruit I have on-hand. The carrot makes it a very filling combination.

Always include the walnuts or almonds for essential oils. The ginger juice is the dressing and adds nutritional zing.

Make it with or without any of the suggested ingredients, including the oatmeal.




This is a sure way to increase the number of servings of fruit and vegetables you eat daily. It is fast to make, portable, and takes a while to eat.

Here is my to-go version minus the oatmeal and ginger juice. It gets me to the big city with something left over to munch on the way back home.
