Feel Good: Review Time! BetterOats Oatmeal

 Every week my sister and I go grocery shopping with each other. We like to view it as our "sisterly bonding" time where we can just hang out for a half hour and talk about one of our favorite things: FOOD! This week I came across something that I have never had before but my sister, Alyssa, has so naturally if she liked it, I figured I'd give it a shot. The verdict: LOVED THIS OATMEAL TO DEATH! I mean, sure it doesn't have those little candy dinosaur eggs in it but hey I'm 21 years old, I've got to grow up in some parts of my life right? Anywho, on with the review!

First off, they come in different types. Obviously I chose the Abundance line in the Apples & Cinnamon Flavor.  I'm sure you can tell the packaging is quite small for an oatmeal box, but don't fret, there are FIVE packages of oatmeal in there! The smaller box is actually so it fits better in your pantry AND it's 100% recyclable! Smart, right? Double DGFG points :)

Nutritional Facts: This stuff is completely natural--- it's made with 100% whole grain oats, dried apples, dried cranberries, brown rice, flaxseed, barley, quinoa, rye, and wheat. 

   

So here's how you make it.

1. First, take out a package and tear off the top along the dotted line and pour the oatmeal into a microwavable bowl.

                                                        (See those fruit pieces? delicious!)

                                       
2. Next, fill the paper bag that the oatmeal came in with water up to the black line, dump it in the bowl, mix it, then pop it in the microwave for 2 minutes and your ready to eat! Of course if you're a sugar baby like me, you may need to add some sugar in the raw or stevia haha:) This stuff gets 5 stars from me!
