Getting my oats....
I don't know if I have a genuine wheat intolerance since I've never been tested for it but I do know that when I limit wheat products, my word, I feel SO much better! ;o) It has to be said that I do love bread but in the interests of feeling healthier I am trying to keep it at a maneageble level and there's lots of groovy new things to try, oh I love trying new foods and different recipes! ;o) However I'm digressing a little as I'm here to share an oaty post or two on a blog I lurk about on from time to time. Those of you in Scottish climes will have heard of Skirlie, a savory oat dish. I hadn't heard of it but found this post about it on Mostly Eating. I really like the look of it and will be having a go at it this week I think. Also, check out this post on there too, lots of oaty ideas! ;o) Particularly like the look of these fruit, nut and Tahini bars! I have trouble with breakfast ideas at times and I think these would hit the spot perfectly. ;o)

Oooh, off to check out the recipe, because I remember skirlie being cooked with lard round here - a healthier option would be great as it is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI adore oats too, so those links will certainly be checked out!
I love oats too.
ReplyDeleteMy ears itch when I eat too much wheat ... go figure.
I eat WASA crispbreads sometimes ...
as for breakfast, sometimes all i can manage is a protein shake.
i tend to like my oats in the evening before bed with a sprinkling of ground walnuts or almonds, almond milk and maple syrup.
Post more often! :D
and is that really your bum? if it is love that you did that for your profile! it's perfect.
