Orange Coconut Breakfast Bowl

Power up with this simple high fiber breakfast bowl with a hearty three grains topped with candied oranges and pecans.

Your morning just got brighter with this simple grain breakfast bowl that you can totally customize to your liking.

I had the pleasure of attending the first Foodie Bootcamp back in October and it was such a blast, amazing hands-on learning experience and overall BEST EVENT ever.

One thing I discovered while making my breakfast is that when your oatmeal boils over and you lose some, you can combine it with a plain leftover grain like quinoa or granola and have a nutritious breakfast bowl. Tripe threat!

Candied oranges and pecans just seemed so “fall” to me but you can use any dried fruit and nut combo.

I love quinoa in general, because of it’s high protein content and oatmeal is just the best breakfast staple.

If you were serving company, it would be fun to have a variety of toppings for a DIY breakfast bowl buffet.

What are you loving for breakfast these days?
