PACKED WITH SUPERFOODS
This Blueberry Maple Pecan Baked Oatmeal is packed with superfoods!  Superfoods are foods that are rich in compounds that have the power to positively affect our health, ward off disease, and increase longevity.  
  • Oats are packed with fiber. Fiber helps keep things moving along smoothly in our intestinal tract.  A diet high in fiber also helps reduce cholesterol, regulate blood sugar levels, regulate blood pressure, and lower your risk of heart disease.  Since Oatmeal will help you feel full longer, it can help you lose weight.  
  • Blueberries are superfoods too.  They provide vitamin C, fiber, and powerful disease-fighting antioxidants.  
  • Pecans pack a 1-2-3 punch of protein, healthy fats, and fiber that can help keep you energized and satisfied. Pecans are a good source of calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which help lower blood pressure.  
4 servings (1/2 grain, 1/2 protein and 2 oz. of fruit each; suitable for Bright Line Eating program).
