One cup of cooked oatmeal contains about 150 calories, four grams of fiber and six grams of protein. Enjoying a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast can also help you control your weight by keeping you feeling fuller longer.
Healthy oatmeal breakfast
Oatmeal is a great choice for breakfast because it provides a balanced, nutritious start to the day. It contains dietary fiber, which helps to keep us feeling full, aids digestion and can help to reduce cholesterol levels and the risk of heart disease.
Oatmeal is also packed with essential vitamins and minerals like manganese, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc. It’s an excellent source of B vitamins, including thiamin, riboflavin and niacin. Oatmeal also contains essential amino acids which your body needs for energy production.
Eating oatmeal in the morning gives you the energy that you need to get through your day without crashing or feeling sluggish later on. Plus it is incredibly versatile so you can mix things up each day - adding fresh fruit like bananas or blueberries or topping with nut butters or chia seeds for extra protein and health benefits.
Lastly, oatmeal is relatively quick and easy to make - meaning you don't have to spend too much time in the mornings preparing breakfast! All these things make oatmeal an ideal option for a healthy breakfast that will give you long-lasting energy throughout your day.

Loved this Oatmeal collection of recipes! I was disappointed that I could not get the recipe for Overnight, No-Cook Apple Pie Oatmeal from The Lemon Bowl. I tried many times but the words for the recipe were not highlighted for us to click on.
I know you are so busy that I hate to bother you with this minor detail.

Thank you so much for letting me know, and I’m really glad you’re enjoying the oatmeal recipes!
I just checked that link and it looks like that recipe is no longer available on their site, which is why it’s not working. I’m going to go ahead and remove it from the roundup so it’s not frustrating for anyone else.
I really appreciate you taking the time to point that out. It’s a big help!
