Blueberry Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal

Start your morning with this easy and satisfying Blueberry Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal! It’s studded with sweet blueberries, sliced banana toasted pecans and a dusting of brown sugar. Vegan and gluten-free!

It was love at first bite.

I was thiiiiiiiiiiiis close to calling it “Breakfast Bread Pudding of My Dreams.” Cuz that’s a normal Google search, right? Calling all cozy fall breakfast lovers!

Seriously though. Don’t you just love when breakfast collides with dessert in that cosmic way where you JUMP out of bed in the morning because you know you have THE most legit breakdessert downstairs waiting for your face?!

Ohhhh the toasty pecan topping. They seriously made the dish! Don’t you skip ’em.

This beauteous blueberry dream breakfast recipe comes from Nature’s Path new e-book, Your Guide to a Vegan Diet! Whether you’re seeking a friend in plants to boost your health, impact the environment, protect animals, or simply try something fun and new, incorporating more plant-based foods into your diet is a stellar idea. And it doesn’t have to be all or nothing!

Better to focus on saying YES to adding more plant-powered goodies like fruits, veggies, tofu, beans, nuts and seeds rather than focusing on what you’re not eating.  Like I always tell my clients, the more plants the merrier. Even if you’re just trying out one meatless meal or day a week, that’s a freaking awesome step in the right direction for your bod and the planet.

Everyone is different and everyone has different dietary needs. Major respect to anyone and everyone that recognizes that for themselves and others! What works for me may not work for you and vice versa. What I do know is that eating more plant foods can make a world of a difference when it comes to boosting your health and that of the environment. The most memorable fact I learned while researching for my graduate thesis on cancer survivors harvesting at an urban garden was that one in three cases of cancer stems from nutrition. Crazy, right?!

I find those powerful little phytochemicals in plants so freaking fascinating. The power they have in preventing and reversing chronic disease is the reason I became so passionate about this topic in the first place.

If you’re interested in learning more about the ins and outs of the plant-based world, you MUST check out Your Guide to a Vegan Diet. It’s packed with solid information on plant-based protein, how to prevent vitamin deficiencies, dairy substitutions, egg substitutes in recipes, advice about plant-based eating, easy printable recipes like this one, and more.

And if you just want to go to town on the best damn baked oatmeal of your life, that’s totes cool, too.

Dig in!
