Whatever Floats Your Oat!

The goal of this book is to get you excited about what is always thought of as the most pedestrian ingredient in the world. Through her passion and knowledge of blending spices and flavors, Laurel uses her favorite food, oatmeal, as something to be "paired" with other high-quality foods; to make something extraordinary out of a hearty staple most of us take for granted. She takes an ordinary, workingman's ingredient and produces inspired, healthy, and delicious creations. From the stovetop to baked cookies, oatmeal is your partner in crime. This versatility makes it incredibly easy to prepare and enjoy a healthy breakfast or snack no matter how busy your schedule. Chuck it in a crockpot on Sunday night and have breakfast ready for the entire week. Make a dozen cookies and grab a couple for an on-the-go snack! Treat your body with respect and love. Prepare in advance, get creative, and don't limit yourself. Embrace the versatility of oats!
