VERY RASPBERRY PROTEIN OATMEAL {Lean Version}

My mother-in-law has fresh raspberries coming out of her ears this year. Every time I go to her house, she begs and pleads, "Will you please pick some raspberries and take them home with you?" How can I resist! I love fresh raspberries! What makes it even more fun is knowing I can have fresh raspberries in oatmeal the next morning.



VERY RASPBERRY PROTEIN OATMEAL {Lean Version}
Servings: 1
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Bake Time: 30 minutes
Bake Temp: 350 degrees

Ingredients
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup fresh raspberries {you can use frozen too}
1/4 cup fat-free cottage cheese
1/4 tsp baking powder
2 TBS sugar-free Torani Raspberry syrup
2 egg whites
2 Stevia packets
1 cup water

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium size oven safe bowl, mix all of your ingredients together, except for the water. You'll add the water last after you have mixed your ingredients together. I find it easier to mix my ingredients without the water, because the egg whites are sometimes hard to whip in when there is water in the bowl. Once your ingredients are all mixed smoothly together, then add your water.

2. Place in oven at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Pull out of oven once it is done, stir your oatmeal and set aside for 5 minutes to let it cool.

S'MORES PROTEIN OATMEAL {Bulking Version}

Marshmallows. Chocolate. Graham Crackers. Oh my! You can't go wrong with this oatmeal. It literally melts in your mouth and you feel like you're cheating. Ha ha!



S'MORES PROTEIN OATMEAL {Bulking Version}
Servings: 1
Bake: 400 degrees
Bake Time: 30 to 35 minutes

Ingredients
1 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 TBS dark chocolate chips
4 TBS Da Vinci Toasted Marshmallow Sugar-Free Syrup
3 stevia packets
2 egg whites
1/2 cup Fage Total 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
12 Capella Graham Cracker Drops
2 TBS Walden Farm's Calorie-Free Chocolate syrup
4 graham cracker squares, crushed {1 whole graham cracker rectangle}
2 cups water
2 large marshmallows

Directions
Mix all of your ingredients together except for the marshmallows and water. I like to mix all of my ingredients before adding the water, because I can mix the egg whites in better and let the oats soak up the syrups. Once mixed, add your water. Cut your 2 marshmallows into 8 to 10 pieces and drop on top.

Bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Once done, pull out and stir. Let it cool for 5 minutes before eating. It'll be piping hot! Enjoy!

Stephanie's Tips
1. If you plan to make this the night before, add an extra 1/4 cup of water to the mix. Your oatmeal won't be so dry in the morning when you go to reheat it.

2. A great way to crush your graham crackers is to place them into a ziplock bag and roll a rolling pin over the top of them. Crushes them perfectly into a fine powder =)

3. Also too, if you are making it in the morning, a yummy way to ramp up your S'mores oatmeal, is instead of mixing your graham cracker's into the oatmeal. Leave them out along with the marshmallows. Bake as normal and pull out after 30 to 35 minutes. Then set your oven to broil on low and sprinkle your crushed graham cracker's over the top along with your pieces of marshmallow. Broil for 5 to 6 minutes. Super yummy!

BANANA RUM CAKE PROTEIN OATMEAL {Bulking version}

I had some banana's that were starting to look a little old. Usually when that happens, the first thing I do is throw them in my freezer for future banana bread recipes. Instead, I decided to take my old banana {it was still in pretty good condition, but too soft for my liking to just eat it} and put it in my husband's oatmeal. Hmmm...I could do a banana bread oatmeal {recipe for that is coming soon}, but I felt like doing something a little more fun. So, I added rum extract and some other ingredients and my banana rum cake baked oatmeal was born. Say that 3 times real fast!
