SIMPLE PORRIDGE

SERVES 2

400 CALORIES PER SERVING

Porridge is my go-to fitness food and on cold mornings there’s nothing I like better than this comforting breakfast classic. Loaded with fibre and packed with vitamins and minerals, porridge is great plain or with one of my topping ideas.

80g porridge oats

500ml whole milk

TOPPING

1 tbsp flaked almonds

1 small apple, cored and grated

squeeze of orange juice

1 Put the flaked almonds in a frying pan and toast them gently over a medium heat for 2–3 minutes, tossing them every now and then, until they are lightly browned. Mix the toasted almonds with the rest of the topping ingredients and set aside.

2 Put the oats and milk in a saucepan and place the pan over a medium heat. Slowly bring the milk to the boil, then keep stirring until the oats are cooked and the mixture is thick and creamy.

3 Serve the porridge with the apple and almond mixture – or with one of the toppings here.
