Weekend Breakfast Blogging (WBB#13)-July
June 28, 2007
This July Weekend Breakfast Blogging (WBB) has come blog hopping to My Foodcourt.
This immensely popular event is a brainchild of our favourite Doc, Dr.Nandita Iyer of Saffron Trail (for those of you who don’t know this yet).Nandita, I am absolutely delighted, that I got this opportunity to host this event (my debut as an event host), thank you.
WBB#13 -Oats
This month let us propagate the goodness of Oats with WBB.Yes that’s our theme for Weekend Breakfast Blogging (WBB#13) for July - Oats.
Oats for breakfast is my latest health food Fad. A bowl of quick oats porridge with some raisins and nuts or a bowl of Muesli makes for a wholesome breakfast- to kick start a long day ahead.
Inspite of the well-known health benefits of these Nutraceuticals, Oats do not enjoy much popularity with ‘hardcore Indian palates (like mine.)’ It took some time for me to become fond of this nutty flavored ‘super grain’ – due to its gooey texture (when cooked) and a comparatively bland taste.
The health benefits of Oats are too many to be ignored. I want you all to come up with some lip-smacking recipes, so that each one of us is tempted to include these ‘wonder grains’ in our regular breakfast.
Quick cooking Oats
You may use Oats in any form – Whole Oats/Oats groats, Oat bran, Steel cut/Irish Oats, Rolled Oats/Old fashioned oats, Quick Oats ,Oat Flour..anything (Pls.let me know if there are any other varieties of Oats)
If you would like to share any other information related to Oats –health benefits, cooking tips, photos of the different varieties etc..you are most welcome.
Most of you are already aware of the WBB rules. For those of you who are new to this event here are the rules:
1. Prepare any recipe featuring Oats, servable for breakfast.
2. Post the recipe on your Blog before 25th July 2007.

5. Non-bloggers -you are welcome to participate. Just mail me your recipe, photo and any other information and I will gladly publish it for you on my blog.

I never gave it a try. May be this time I have to. I need to see how they taste before going to make a recipe out of it. Luckily there is a box of oats in my pantry I will start my trials right from today.
