Otherwise, why eat it? en http://baileycoats5j.friendlinkup.com/2008/11/16/lovely-pomegranate-seeds.html Today’s breakfast featured lovely pomegranate seeds!  I just love the pop of color they add to any meal! Oatmeal, pomegranate seeds I had oatmeal with pomegranate seeds, and oh my goodness, it was sooo good!  I loved the sweet/tart flavor they added!  Definitely a new favorite combo! I only had a little bit of oatmeal - about a 1/4 cup of oatmeal with 1/2 cup of water because of the fact that I was heating it in the microwave as well as didn’t desire it to overflow.  So 2 minutes on medium power- it came out fine but was still a little bit watery.  So I decided to put it back in on behalf of 30 seconds on medium power.  Well, you can guess what happened!  It started overflowing after 12 seconds!  D’oh!  Luckily, I was watching it as well as was able to stop it before the whole thing overflowed!  So I cleaned up up the microwave, as well as then mixed my oatmeal again - it seemed just right.  But… by the time I took pictures of the oatmeal as well as the yogurt combo I made right afterwards, the oatmeal had soaked all of the water up as well as it was kind of dry!  Haha, too funny.  Next time I’ll just stick to 1/4 cup oats, 1/2 cup water, 2 minutes on medium power as well as by the time I’m ready to eat, the oatmeal shall be just perfect!  Plain Chobani yogurt, banana slices, pomegranate seeds So since I needed something else to fill me up, I had a plain Chobani yogurt on the side. I added about two big spoonfuls of strawberry jam to sweeten it up.  And then I also decided to add some banana slices (about half of a small banana) as well as some pomegranate seeds.  Hmmm, I think next time I could probably add one big spoonful or spoonful as well as a half instead since it was a little bit too sweet.  But overall it was good. All in all, a yummy breakfast.  You can bet I’ll be having it again soon!
