Ingredients
- ⅓ cup steamed cauliflower rice 70 g
- ⅓ cup old fashioned oats 30 g
- ⅔ cups water less if you like it less liquidy
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp stevia more to taste
- Pinch of salt
- 6 Tbsp liquid egg whites 90 g
- ¼ cup cashew milk 60g
- ⅓ scoop favorite protein powder 11 g*
Optional:
- ¼ cup diced fresh peaches 30 g
- 2 Tbsp blueberries 20 g
- 2 tsp chopped toasted almonds 5 g
- ½ tbsp Califia Farms almond milk creamer 7 g**
- Drizzle of my favorite sugar free syrup ***
Instructions
- Steam your cauliflower according to package directions. I like to buy a steamable frozen bag of riced cauliflower and microwave it right in the bag with the corner snipped until nice and soft.
- Add oats, water, cinnamon, stevia, and salt to a bowl and microwave for 60 seconds. Stir well. Add egg whites and steamed cauliflower and microwave on high for another 60 seconds. Stir well and microwave for another 30-60 seconds until liquid is all absorbed. Don’t worry, the egg whites cook quick and easily in there. (But also liquid egg whites are safe to consume raw if you’re worried!)
- Whisk or shake cashew milk with protein powder and pour it over the oats. Add extra stevia if needed. If you have a sugar free syrup that you love, a drizzle of that can be great too.
- Top with whatever oatmeal toppings you love! I’ve got the macros below for the bowl without toppings, or with a few of my favorites, diced peaches, blueberries, toasted almonds, and some Almond milk creamer. Enjoy!
Notes
*Protein: I like the Clean Simple Eats Snickerdoodle or maple donut for this.
**Creamer: I LOVE the Califia Farms almond milk creamer options. All flavors are good!
***Syrup: I like Birch Benders Magic Syrup since it’s sweetened naturally with monk fruit and stevia rather than sucralose like lots are.
I also like this chilled for later. Not “overnight oats” exactly since everything is cooked. But you can still store it in the fridge for the week.
