Protein Power Oats
When you’re craving oatmeal but know you need some protein! Adding in protein powder is one way to do it, but I find I often don’t love the flavor. Instead, add in an egg or egg whites for the protein boost! You can barely taste it (can’t taste the egg whites at all) and it makes your oatmeal super fluffy! Method is below!
