Here's a wonderful way to make oatmeal a cenetrpiece at your breakfast or brunch table. Besides the great presentation, there's almost no standing and stirring over the stove involved. The butter and brown sugar topping, melted and crisped under the broiler, is just a flourish, touch, well worth the 5 extra minutes and the calories.
Peach Oats Brulee
Ingredients
4 cups of peach juice or necter
1/2 cup of diced fresh peached or could use canned
2 cups of rolled oats
1/2 tsp salt
1-2 tbs butter
1/3 cup of brown sugar
Directions
Preheat oven 350. Pour juice into sauce pan, cover and bring to boil on high heat. Stir in oats, fruit and salt and return to boil, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
Transfer the oat mixture to a lightly oiled oven proof 2 quart casserole dish that's about 9x6 inches. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes, until liquid is absorbed and oats are tender and golden. Remove from the oven, dot the top with butter, and evenly sprinkle on the brown sugar. Place under the broiler about 3-6 inches from the broiler for 2-3 minutes until sugar is melted and bubbly. Serve hot.
I get a kick out of seeing people have a green juice for the first time, because they are blown away over how good it is and how great it is for their body. We have been drinking many different versions of "Green Smoothie" for years, and almost religiously everyday. My kids hear the juicer start and they come running in for what they call a "healthy drink" and I never have problems to get them to drink it all up. So this morning I am sharing one of our green smoothie recipes with you since it has been a couple of months
Get up and go green smoothie
Directions
Pass the spinach, apples, carrots, oranges, lemon juice and ginger through a juice maker, according to the manufacturer's directions. Pour the juice into 2 ice-filled glasses and serve.
