NOatmeal! Yummy comfort food


(Mediterranean Magic! Show me yer...) #1

Delicious!

Super flexible and forgiving recipe:

Couple spoons each of toasted finely chopped coconut and toasted pecans. Toasting and nut choice up to you. I don’t care for the coconut untoasted in this dish, nor big flappy pieces. YMMV.

Toss in small sauce pan or microwaveable bowl depending on how you like to cook.

Add a couple spoons almond meal and equal amount of chia seeds. Add about 1/2 cup water, tea, coconut milk or whatever suits your fancy. For this one I used fresh ginger turmeric tea.

While you bring that to a simmer - don’t boil - freshly grind 2 to 3 spoons flax seed to a coarse meal. Don’t pulverise. Toss into simmering porridge and turn off heat. Stir enthusiastically for about a minute. If it seems too thick, add liquid. Stir in some HWC if yer into that. Cinnamon and other stuff too if you like.

Pour into bowl. You may want to wait a few minutes while it thickens. Or not. I just topped with an assload of butter and a couple twists of fresh ground cinnamon. YUM.

What exactly is an assload of butter. Is there a difference between a metric assload and imperial assload?

Well, for the imperial assload, I generally put a crown on it.

Also, for the record, this is the second time this week I’ve felt compelled to post a bacon crown. Go me.

LOL! I was thinking the EXACT same thing! Great minds. And is there a correlation to a shit ton?

I love noatmeal!! Especially with an “ass load” of butter! However I felt hungry earlier after I ate it. Only have made it once…maybe I should try again?

A buttload is an actual unit of measure. Used in whiskey and wine measurements. 126 gallons or so. An ass load of butter could be 126, I dunno…sticks?

Kinky!

I’ve found that I prefer extra flax seed, and also coconut cream on top when super hungry. However your portion size might be small too?
