I should have made a video of this, but I didn’t even think about it until the end because Danelle wanted pictures of the oats. 😂
It’s just me and the three younger kids this morning. We needed to make a grocery store run, but I was dreading going into town, so I improvised with what we already had.
First picture is the oats. Pumpkin spice, some stevia, then I melted some leftover chocolate chips from the cake I found earlier this week into it. For mine, I stirred in a scoop of protein powder.
Then I took all the half-used bags of frozen fruit we had and threw them into a saucepan to simmer down into the fruit mixture you see here.
Super easy. Cleaned out some of the freezer and pantry, saved some money, and avoided a trip to the grocery store.
And I made enough that I don’t have to cook breakfast again this weekend, and maybe not even Monday morning. 😂
I’m not sure how helpful this kind of post is, but I used to do stuff like this all the time. If you go back 10+ years on my old posts, I was constantly sharing meals, recipes, and even doing pricing breakdowns.
Then social media became completely inundated with AI, instant content, and everyone posting the same stuff over and over, so I stopped doing a lot of it.
Recently I’ve realized that a lot of you follow SENT specifically for this kind of stuff, and you didn’t see the things I was sharing 10+ years ago.
So I’m going to try to get back to sharing more of the useful, everyday stuff again.
Not everything needs to be a recipe. Sometimes it’s just figuring out how to feed six people without going to the grocery store. 😂💪
