Oatmeal: Make Healthy Foods Even Healthier!
Good: Instead of using hot water, combine fresh brewed green tea with your oatmeal, and add even more health benefits to your morning.
Better: Instead of purchasing flavored packets of instant oatmeal, purchase a large container of oats (most often the same price for many more servings), and combine Salada Chai Green Tea for a savory 0 calorie additive, or combine Salada Pomegranate Berry Green Tea for a refreshing fruit flavor!
Best: Not only swap your flavored instant oatmeal for freshly prepared oats with green tea, enjoy a relaxing cup of hot tea, or a refreshing cup of Iced tea with your oatmeal.
Tip: To give your meals an added boost,
you can also use green tea in place of water
in any recipes or preparation, including pasta and rice.
