Ingredients

Base

  • 325 ml (1 1/3 cups) large flake oats
  • 180 ml (3/4 cup) textured vegetable protein (TVP)
  • 125 ml (1/2 cup) unsalted pumpkin seeds
  • 125 ml (1/2 cup) ground flax seeds

Optional additions

  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) dried fruit
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) cocoa powder
  • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) cinnamon

For the assembly

  • 125 ml (1/2 cup) unsweetened soy beverage or milk + 15 ml (1 tbsp) to be added after cooking
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) maple syrup  (optional)
  • 125 ml (1/2 cup) fresh fruit  (optional)
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) nut butter  (optional)

Preparation

  1. In 4 airtight containers, distribute the base ingredients: Each serving contains 80 ml (1/3 cup) rolled oats, 45 ml (3 tbsp) PVT, and 30 ml (2 tbsp) each of ground pumpkin seeds and flax seeds. If desired, add dried fruit, cocoa powder and/or cinnamon. Save for later use.
  2. To serve, add soy beverage and maple syrup, if desired. Mix well. At this stage, you can also let the mixture sit overnight in the refrigerator to create an "overnight" oatmeal to be enjoyed cold.
  3. Microwave for 2 to 3 minutes depending on desired texture.
  4. For a creamy texture, add 30 ml (1 tbsp) of soy beverage and mix. Garnish with fresh fruit and nut butter if desired.

Notes

The dry mix can be stored for 3 months in an airtight container at room temperature. Prepared oatmeal can be stored for 3 days in the refrigerator.
