Healthy eating should be pleasant and light, and oatmeal fits these criteria. It can be brewed in many ways: boil, steam, bake, etc. But today I propose an unusual recipe - lazy oatmeal with apples and spices. This is a cold way to prepare oatmeal. It is unique for several reasons. First, a can of such a volume is used so that the portion is for one person. Second, you can take breakfast straight from the refrigerator with you to work, study or training. The third is a nutritious and healthy dish, as it contains a lot of protein, fiber, calcium and practically no sugar and fat. Fourth - literally one minute is spent on the preparation of the dish.
This type of breakfast is very convenient especially in the summer, because when it's hot outside the window, you don't always want to eat hotter. In addition, such a dish can be enjoyed all year round, and fruits and berries can be used in season. This recipe is quite flexible and allows you to create new variations every day, come up with different options and combine all kinds of ingredients to your liking.

Cooking Lazy Oatmeal with Spiced Apples

5. Next add the ginger powder.
6. Pour cool boiled milk over the food. But not until the end of the container, because more apples will be added. So leave room for them. You can also fill the cereal with ordinary drinking water, juice, fermented baked milk, yogurt, etc.
7. Close the container with a lid and shake or shake well so that all the spices and spices are evenly mixed.
8. Send the jar in the refrigerator, letting it sit overnight, and in the morning the lazy oatmeal will be ready. During this time, the flakes will be saturated with milk, swell, become soft and tender.

11. Close the jar with the lid and shake again to distribute the apples throughout the jar. All the porridge is ready and you can start your meal.
You can store this lazy oatmeal in the refrigerator for 2-4 days, depending on the liquid used. You can also freeze lazy oatmeal for a month. And you should defrost the oatmeal gradually. Move the jar to the refrigerator overnight from the freezer, and by morning, the oatmeal will be ready.
