Oatmeal is one of those breakfast options that many people love because it’s healthy and easy to prepare. Nevertheless, oatmeal is not a high protein food, so here are a few tasty and creative ways to add more protein to your oatmeal.

Milk

Why prepare oatmeal with water, when you can make it more tasty and nutritious by using milk. You can cook oatmeal with cow milk, oat, or soy milk to make a creamy breakfast that’s rich in protein and very nutritious.

Greek Yogurt

Greek yogurt is rich in protein and is great for digestion. Plain Greek yogurt can be a great addition to your oatmeal and a great way to up your protein intake.

Nuts

Nuts like almonds, walnuts, or cashews are rich in protein and they’ll make your oatmeal crunchy and more delicious.

Nut Or Seed Butter

If you don’t like eating nuts or you don’t have them in the kitchen, nut or seed butter is a great protein-rich alternative. Pumpkin seed butter, peanut butter, and sesame butter are just some of the protein-rich options you can choose if you want to add protein and flavor to your oatmeal.
