I made Apple Cinnamon (my favorite) crockpot oatmeal for the first time last night and it’s delicious! I love oatmeal, but was skeptical that this would be tasty. It’s not only tasty, but it’s also clean and healthy.
Ingredients:
Grease your crockpot FIRST!!
I used Unsweetened Almond Breeze in place of skim milk and rolled oats instead of steel cut (didn’t have any).
Throw it all in the crockpot, sliced apples last and cook on low for 7 hours. I got up this morning about 7 and put my crockpot on warm. Left it that way until 10 and it was perfect. I added a few packets of Truvia, well because I have a sweet tooth.
Nutritional Info:
3/4 c. serving size – 149cal (that’s using skim milk), 3.6g fat, 27.3g of carbs, 3.9g fiber, 4.9g protein.
Original idea came from here.
Yesterday, my new medicine ball arrived, along with my Gymboss timer. I love them both!! So of course I had to try them out.
WOD: 10 weighted squats – 30lbs, 10 strict push-ups – 5 rounds for time
Used the weight plate for thrusters and the medicine ball for wood chops and more push-ups. Killer workout.
Last thing, if you know me well, you know I LOVE sports. Baseball and football are my two favorites, but I just love competition in general, so I get sucked in to most sports. Last night was VERY bittersweet as a baseball and Atlanta Braves fan. I’ve been a Braves fan my whole life, been to countless games and cheered religiously for them. Chipper Jones was a rare athlete in that he stayed an Atlanta Brave. For as long as I can remember, he has been the face of the Braves. The reason I’ve been a fan. Along with John Smoltz, Chipper has always been my Brave. You know, the one you buy their jerseys, t-shirts, etc… So his last at bat was emotional. I had invested many hours of my life cheering for him and I’m incredibly happy he has retired an Atlanta Brave. Thanks for the 19 seasons, Chipper!! Every minute cheering for you was worth it!!
Awesome idea! I love anything that makes getting out the door in the morning just a bit easier!
