Tiny Tummy's Samoatmeal and Tagaloatmeal

Girl Scout Cookies are probably among my favorite things in the world... so when Girl Scout Season approaches, the temptation is high. I'm pretty sure a box of Samoas or Tagalongs wouldn't last more than a few days in my house, but those things are PACKED with sugar, unhealthy fats, and calories. Needless to say, there are other ways to get the flavor of those delicious cookies without having to eat the cookies themselves, and what better way time to eat them than the very start of your day? Why not turn your morning bowl of oatmeal into a giant girl scout cookie in a bowl in anticipation of the upcoming season? Luckily, I've got two different recipes to make that happen!



To make Tiny Tummy's Samoatmeal, you will need:

1/2 cup of plain, quick cooking oats (or 1 package of instant oatmeal) prepared according to package instructions
1 T shredded coconut (unsweetened)
1 T Walden Farms chocolate dip (or sub 1 t unsweetened cocoa powder + 1 t stevia or 1 T mini dark chocolate chips)
1 T Walden Farms caramel dip
optional: dash of vanilla extract and cinnamon



To make Tiny Tummy's Tagaloatmeal

1/2 cup of plain, quick cooking oats (or 1 package of instant oatmeal) prepared according to package instructions
1 T Walden Farms chocolate dip (or sub 1 t unsweetened cocoa powder + 1 t stevia or 1 T mini dark chocolate chips)
1 T powdered peanut butter (or sub all natural peanut butter)
optional: dash of vanilla extract

To prepare either one, simply combine prepared oats with other ingredients and stir until well combined. If using chocolate chips, stir until they have melted. Then, eat up and enjoy your girl scout cookie in a bowl! Who says you can't have chocolate for breakfast?! Pin It
