hahaha! i was skimming your blog on google reader (it was in my recommended blogs list) and i saw the last picture here and thought that the pistachios were cardamom pods. i thought, “dang, that’s serious business.”

anyhow, thanks for the laugh.

Great use of pistachios in that oatmeal, do they get too soft if they sit too long?

I’ve been snacking on pistachios in-shell and they really moderate my eating. You can see a study about it here:

Ooh, nice! I’m on a steel cut kick at the moment, but have been going the cinnamon, agave, & a pinch of salt route.

Hehe! My post today is the exact opposite of yours! It’s about why I must eat as soon as I wake up….that being said, one thing I’ve never tried is steel cut oats. I’m not sure why, but I know I’d love them. I will definitely buy some soon!

That sounds really good. I often make a big batch of steel cut oats or spelt flakes and eat them for a few days…I really like adding cinnamon or nutmeg, but pistachios, ohhhh!

Your cereal recipe sounds delicious! Like yourself, I stay away from refined sugars and have been using honey to sweeten oatmeal, or some fresh berries (I guess it’s not berry season anymore)…

Another quick and hearty breakfast that is my personal favorite is “Nature Bake” sprouted wheat bread and I make toast with Earth Balance and fruit sweetened jam or honey. It also seconds as my dessert when I get the hankerin’.

I love steel cut oats even more than regular oats. I do cheat and get the quick cooking kind though =)

I love your recipe, the flavors sound so tasty!
