By Kathy C.

Counting ALL Joy: "Oh, where have you been all my life? These years have been missing you... sweet, yummy, satisfying goodness! Yes, amazing "Oatmeal" and easy peasy too.
To me it's more like a heavenly porridge, but it is her recipe and I shall give it the name bestowed upon it!
I found this through a great blog who was promoting her friends Grain Free Egg Free Breakfast e-book. Who knew this book would be a great spring board for me towards my own new creations? I am very thankful I found it!

For Trim Healthy Mama this is an S meal! :)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Divide the blueberries and blackberries evenly between two serving bowls and mash them with a fork. (**I use frozen strawberries, and mash just before serving)

2. Combine the chia seed, golden flax meal, unsweetened coconut, and sweetener in a separate bowl.

3. Divide the mixture evenly between the two serving bowls.

4. Pour ½ cup of hot water over each bowl, mix a little with the fork and let sit for 5 minutes.

5. Stir to combine, then add 2 Tbsp of coconut milk to each bowl around the outside. (this makes a nice presentation if you care... and fun for the kids to stir in themselves)

6. Top with fresh blackberries, blueberries or toasted coconut. (optional)
