I feel almost guilty after eating this for breakfast. Maybe its better served as dessert? Actually, it would be perfect for a weekend brunch.
Ingredients
1/4 cup nonfat milk
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup rolled oats
1 tsp vanilla essence (be generous)
2 tbsp cream cheese
3/4 cup fresh raspberries
1 tbsp brown sugar
22 Ghiradelli white chocolate chips ( optional, adds about 50 calories to the total)
Total calories: 343 ( including chocolate)
As usual, begin cooking the oats in the milk, water and vanilla. Once it begins to thicken add the brown sugar and cream cheese stirring constantly to ensure it melts evenly. Now add 1/4 cup of the raspberries and allow them to melt giving the oatmeal a dainty pink color. When the oatmeal is done, fold in another 1/4 cup of berries.
Finally, garnish the oats with the remaining berries and the white chocolate.
