I've become a big oat experimenter, if you couldn't tell. This weekend, I whipped up a delicious bowl of oats on a whim. I typically always have oatmeal in some form before I go on a big long run. Whether it's baked, stovetop, or from a jar... I find it sticks more, keeps me full, and gives me the energy I need to push through a run. Saturday morning, I woke up with peaches on the brain. Now that I'm down in the South, there's peaches EVERYWHERE. Not to mention they look and smell delicious. What better way to have them than with my breakfast?? Also, I used a special ingredient. I had an extra summer squash hanging out in the fridge that I needed to use. I figured that since I normally use a shredded zucchini to fluff up my oats, I could use the summer squash the same way. IT WAS AWESOME!
