Super green porridge

I'll try not to gloat about my oats!

Porridge is one of our favourites to have as a warming winter breakfast and the added spirulina is a great way to boost your immunity at the beginning of the day. Although the temperature is getting a little warmer, we still feel this is a great wholesome recipe which is ideal to keep you healthy during this global pandemic.

Alternatives

*You can use maple syrup instead of honey to make this breakfast vegan.

*I personally like to use oat milk as it is my favourite alternative milk but you can substitute any milk of your choice, including regular dairy milk.

Notes

*The cooking time varies depending on how cooked you like your porridge, I personally like it a little more runny so I cook it for less time.

*These are just a selection of my personal favourite toppings with this porridge but feel free to add whatever you enjoy.
