A special treat

Chocolate and Raspberry Porridge
 This is my all time Favorite porridge. ever. Its the best! I love raspberries  and they'd be great on their own, but combined with a chunk of  lovely dark and bitter chocolate it makes a completely irresistible bowl. I think the cashew nuts look like white chocolate chips too-which isn't a bad idea, why not double chocolate!
 Raspberries are expensive at the best of times, but right now they are 3 pound a punnet :O. Thank goodness for frozen berries! They work just as well, and once microwaved you don't notice the difference really. Normally I'd have this as a treat, but today there was no special reason-but hats no bad thing, sometimes its good to just treat yourself isn't it?!

Recipe

  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 80g/a handful of raspberries
  • cashew nuts/other nut
  • 1-2 squares chocolate
Method
  1. Gently mix together oats, milk, nuts and raspberries.
  2. Microwave for 2-2.5 mins
  3. Add the chocolate and microwave for 20 seconds further  ** the chocolate wont melt fully at first, but it will do once you start eating as the oats heat it up.
  4. Enjoy!
