Oatmeal is nutritious, too! Oats are rich in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, which makes oatmeal a true powerhouse breakfast. Studies have also shown that oats can help lower your cholesterol and improve your blood sugar control. Also, they can help with weight loss because they’re so filling!1
Of course, your add-ins and toppings can add even more nutrition…and/or decadence, depending on your mood! :) Many of these vegan oatmeal recipes are on the sweet side, but there are a few savory options thrown in, which make a fabulous savory breakfast option but can also serve as an easy lunch or dinner.
