Oatmeal. A breakfast staple…especially for multi-day outdoor adventures. But let’s face it: oatmeal can be so boring. To make things worse, many store bought packets lack energy boosting nutrients and are loaded with processed sugars.
Since eating more oatmeal than I’d like to admit, I couldn’t stand the thought of eating another bowl on a trip… That is until I started getting a bit creative and prepping my own oatmeal combos. And now, oatmeal has redeemed itself. It’s made it’s way back into my expedition meal plans.
Notes:
Okay, so saying these oatmeal recipes slap is definitely a bold statement. Let’s be real… we’re talking about oatmeal here.
But I must say, these combos are flavourful and full of proteins, fibre, and healthy fats to keep your stomach full and happy on big adventures.

Note: I found store-bought dried lemon rind to be extremely bitter. Finely shred some lemon rind, place in between 2 sheets of paper towel and keep out to dry for a day or two.
