Slow Cooker Pineapple Coconut Oatmeal (yum!)

Recipe:


1 1/2 cups steel cut oats (must be steel cut to withstand slow cook without turning to mush)


3 cups water


1 13.5 oz. can coconut milk, unsweetened


1 20 oz can pineapple chunks, in juice- add the entire can, juice and fruit


1 t. cinnamon


1/4 t. nutmeg (preferably fresh grated)


Put all ingredients in slow cooker (I use liner bags to avoid clean-up problems, but if not using, spray slow cooker with oil), stir to combine, high heat for three-four hours or low heat for six-to-eight hours.


Delicious! Sprinkle with macadamia nuts and brown sugar for extra oomph. You can add a little protein powder if you’re working out a lot. I like a little cream on mine. Extras can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week, easy to reheat in the microwave or on the stove with a little added milk, cream, or water stirred in.

Hello to Kindness with Sarah Ferguson.


Great article! Let’s all try to be kind and more thoughtful online. Also, I love the old picture of Sarah with Diana mid-article.


Meanwhile, I’ve been enjoying the Westminster Dog Show 2019 with these two girls, my corgis Bandit (tricolor) and Pepper (red and white).


Cheers!

Power of Women

I’m honored to find out that I’m one of 1000 women featured in The Republican newspaper’s (not a political affiliation, just the name of the paper) Power of Women book, looking at women from MA and CT who shaped history and made an impact on society. I found out while on a beach in Hawaii for a recent birthday.

Gorgeous beaches, beautiful sunrises and sunsets, great people. Highly recommended if you ever get a chance to go. I stayed at Disney’s Aulani resort and it was fabulous.
