So the other day I had an epiphany.
Coach’s Oats + Unsweetened Coconut Shreds + Chocolate Chips
Like a ‘Mounds Bar’ for breakfast but healthier!
Or throw in some almond slivers and you got yourself an ‘Almond Joy’!
Easy peasy and totally a treat for Sunday Brunch for the whole family or a weekday pick up!
I made the “Mounds” version yesterday morning then spent the rest of the day on the couch battling a migraine with a dog that had diarrhea. Yep. Such a pleasant day.
But at least my Saturday was amazing! A great run with Fleet Feet’s CREW followed by a healthy breakfast at iHop with some of the ladies from the group. Yes, it can be done. 5 egg whites, dry english muffin and a side of fruit. So much more fun having someone else make eggs 
Then we went to the beach with Madeline and her family.
Yep. You can be jealous that I get to hang out with Emmie. And I’ll see her on Wednesday for 4th of July!
Have a great Monday…. by now our run group will know what their little surprise is!!

Yup, I think you just made my day, and I know what I’ll be having for breakfast soon. I already have all these ingredients, unless my hubby got rid of the coconut! FABULOUS epiphany!
It is so so yummy!!
Yum! Chocolate and coconut flavors are my favorite combo! I’ve thrown it into oats (and pancakes) for breakfast before, and a little bit goes a long way for just the right amount of sweet in the morning!
You are so right, just a little goes a long way! The first day I put too much and it was wayyyyy overloaded!
Get in my belly!! See you Wednesday
LOVE Coachs Oats and that looks yummy with the coconut and choc chips…
and hmmm I just got a new bag of almonds today…guess what’s for breakfast!
PICK ME! PICK ME! I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW whats for breakfast
Yum! I love oatmeal like this. I’ve done something similar before with adding cocoa powder to the oats and topping with coconut. I’ve also used unsweetened coconut almond breeze which makes it divine. Gotta love delicious breakfast that tastes like dessert!
I didn’t think of cocoa powder! So smart!
AMAZING-looking oatmeal recipe! Going in my arsenal!
Great idea!
I’m Canadian and we can’t get Almond Joy or Mounds here. I always treat myself when I’m in the US (except for my last trip, when a friend vilified my choice of favourite candy bar)
Breakfast tomorrow, for sure!
Wait, no Almond Joys or Mounds to our friendly neighbors? Sad times. It is my favorite when Halloween comes around… because we get the mini sizes. Maybe I should ship all the minis up north to you, or at least split them
Just tried the almond joy version of this…SO GOOD!! Genius idea VTB!
So glad you loved it!!
