Oatmeal and berries bowl in lemon juice

This oatmeal and berries bowl in lemon juice recipe provides a warm and quick breakfast full of vitamins, using strawberries, blackberries, and raspberries.

Oatmeal reminds me of my friend Giovanni, who used to have it for breakfast every time we would go biking. This complex carbohydrate is easy to digest, and combined with berries you get enough energy for a morning workout. It is part of my list of recipes for workouts.

When I was a kid, my mother would make fruit salads and add lemon juice. She put no oatmeal on them, obviously. Yet, when I combined berries with lemon juice to this oatmeal, I got memories back from these times long gone. Now, I am the parent slicing berries for kids.

Using mixed fruits, by combining strawberries, raspberries and blueberries into one bowl makes for some variety. Together with oatmeal and lemon juice, all ingredients add up their respective anti-inflammatory nutrients, without the addition of milk, not even plant-based milk.

Kids love this breakfast bowl, sometimes with a small amount of extra sweetness by adding a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey. Enjoy this oatmeal and berries bowl in lemon juice!
