Blueberries & Creme Baked Oatmeal {Yogurt Based}

Another! wonderful baked oatmeal recipe!

I THINK I AM THE QUEEN OF BAKED OATMEAL. *-*

It's so good for you...and I love the versatility in these baked oatmeal dishes.

I knew I would HAVE to make this when I saw it at Finding Joy in my Kitchen.

SnoWhite & Frog Prince love to cook together!!

I've tried several of their recipes before with great results.
I have another of their recipes in my drafts that I will share soon -
Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal - single servings!

I love being able to use what I have on hand...quick, 3-minute, or even a 7-grain oat mixture that I find at my local bulk food store.

You can add fruit, flax seed or protein powder. You can use egg substitute.

And I read in the comments at SnoWhite's page, that you can even substitute oat bran for the oatmeal.

It's great to wake up in the morning knowing you'll have this delicious and nutritious breakfast waiting and ready for you!

I also love that you can freeze some of it and heat it up for a quick and healthy breakfast.

It mixes up quickly - by hand!

This is the first one I've tried that has greek yogurt added. YUUUMM!

This is creamy and rich, but low in fat and calories.
