I don't know about you lot, but I love anything "Oaty". You're talkin' flapjacks, hobnobs, porridge, muesli - get in my tummy! Furthermore, oats - when not doused in sugar and butter - are actually incredibly good for us. They are known as one of the best "complex carbohydrates" - meaning it takes longer for the body to release the sugar contained in them. This is great news for us, as we are less prone to sugar cravings this way and you will feel fuller for longer!
They are also cheap as chips. My favourite brand is the one you can get in Aldi - "Kavanaghs Organic Porridge Oats" - €1.69 for a KILO of the stuff. A kilo! Enough to sort you out for breakfast for a month!
