Zucchini Bread Oatmeal

(recipe is adapted from the post here!)

I made this oatmeal on a cold night and it was perfect! Nice and warm, it filled me up and was the perfect ending for the day. 

Ingredients
1/3 cup rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (I used Silk)
1/2-1 tsp ground cinnamon
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup packed finely grated zucchini
1 tbsp ground flax
1 tbsp chopped pecans
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp packed brown sugar
A couple of sprays of "I Can't Believe it's Not Butter" spray

Makes 1 serving
PP+ 7 per serving 

In a medium sized pot, heat the oats, almond milk and cinnamon to a boil and then simmer over medium heat for about 4 minutes.
Then add the zucchini, flax, half of the pecans and brown sugar. Continue cooking for 5-6 minutes, adding any extra moisture when needed. Remove from heat then stir in the vanilla. Place the oatmeal in a bowl and add the rest of the pecans on top along with the butter spray. 
Now sit back, put on a snuggie and enjoy this oatmeal from Heaven!
