Reader Recipe of the Month- Oxygen Magazine
This recipe will help you enjoy the flavor of pumpkin without having to eat it in pie form!
1 cup water
½ cup canned pure pumpkin- Good source of potassium, vitamin A, vitamin C, and powerful antioxidants. Pumpkin also has anti-inflammatory properties.
½ cup old-fashioned oatmeal- A heart healthy, high fiber grain. Note: Gluten free varieties are available!
1 tbsp cinnamon- Great for blood sugar control!
1 tsp pumpkin pie seasoning- Adds lots of flavor with no sugar or calories.
2 tbsp Stevia, an herbal sweetener that will not raise your blood sugars. It actually can help control them!
1. In a small pot, bring water to boil.
2. Stir in pumpkin and remove from heat; turn to low.
3. Stir in oats and put pot back on burner, gradually increasing heat to medium low – reduce heat if it begins to bubble or splatter.
4. Cook for 7 minutes until oats are cooked and fluffy.
5. Stir in cinnamon, pumpkin pie seasoning and Stevia.
If you are in a hurry, you can also microwave the oats for 90 seconds – 2 minutes.
