    Before I share this delicious recipe I just want to thank you again for all of your well wishes.  I am feeling stronger every day and can't wait to be myself again!

    I am very excited to share this delicious blueberry chia oatmeal recipe since I am aware many of you are looking for easy to make, healthy breakfast ideas for your families.

    You will also love this Strawberry Banana Baked Oatmeal, Overnight French Toast Casserole, Mixed Berry French Toast Casserole and definitely this Healthy Breakfast Bowl!

    These would be extra delicious with some Apple Chai Latte, Eggnog Latte, Low Carb Bulletproof Hot Chocolate or even some Spiked Apple Cider!

    Also, my cookbooks are both on sale now and would make a great gift! The Everything Wheat Free Diet Cookbook and The Greek Yogurt Cookbook are both the lowest prices I have seen!

    Ok, now let's dig into this bowl of deliciousness...

    My friend Lee, of Fit Foodie Finds is one of those people that you just can't help but love.  She's adorable, creates the most amazing, healthy recipes, is such a fitness inspiration and has incredible hair.

    Like major hair envy type of incredible.

    Lee made this simple yet scrumptious breakfast for us and I know I can't wait to make it.  I am so into blueberries these days and you already know my love of chia.  The more chia seeds the better!

    Who couldn't use some more fiber and antioxidants in their diet, right?

    Right.

    Why You Should Make This Blueberry Chia Oatmeal

    The best part of this is that I can even make this on a busy school-day morning!  And even though I love blueberries, I bet any fruit would be just as delicious in this.

    Oatmeal is one of the few things that I am consistently eating these days.  My appetite is coming back slowly and luckily my love affair with oatmeal really never left. No joke, I was worried my taste buds would change.

    This blueberry chia oatmeal is so easy to make, loaded with protein and fiber and will help keep you full for the morning.
