When switching over to the Paleo diet, you may be used to eating a bowl of oatmeal in the morning. Why is it bad? Oats are a grain and have gliadin, one of the proteins that form gluten. As we try to avoid gluten when eating Paleo, these are obviously verboten. But what about when you really have a craving for a hot bowl of cereal? Mark’s Daily Apple posted a recipe this week for Oat-Free Oatmeal that looks like a great alternative.  The ingredient list could easily be obtained in a single trip to Whole Foods:

• 1 small handful of walnuts
• 1 small handful of pecans
• 2 tablespoons ground flax seed
• 1/2 – 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch of ground nutmeg
• 1 pinch ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon almond butter
• 1 banana, mashed
• 3 eggs
• 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (add more if you prefer it a little runny)
• 2 teaspoons pumpkin seeds
• 1 handful of goji berries or fresh berries

And the end product looks pretty tasty!
