It looks like winter has finally reared it’s ugly head here in mid-Michigan. I can’t really complain since there has been many years where we’ve had snow on the ground before Thanksgiving. This year we were given a little reprieve and made it until nearly mid-January before the white stuff hit.
Weather like this makes me crave warm and savory comfort foods. The other morning I woke up freezing and couldn’t warm up so I decided to start my morning with a boost with this amazing Berry Oatmeal Bake.
I highly recommend giving this a try, especially for those of you who might not be big oatmeal fans because this may change your mind.. This breakfast kept me full for hours and was the perfect boost to get me moving on a day when I didn’t want to do much but cuddle in blankets on the couch.
