Adding some protein to your Oatmeal

Here is a great way to add some healthy fats and protein to your oatmeal..

1/2 cup of rolled oats
1/2 cup of milk (I used water instead)
4 egg whites, beaten
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup raisins or cranberries
slivered almonds and chopped walnuts

Heat oatmeal and milk or water in small saucepan on medium heat about 5 min stirring constantly. Gradually add beaten egg whites whisking them into the oatmeal mixture. Whisk until the eggs are cooked about 3 minutes. You shouldn't see any runny egg whites once the mixture has thickened. Add in the raisin and nuts cook for 1 minute. Sprinkle with cinnamon!
