Boost Boring Office Microwave Oatmeal With Banana Bottom
Most offices have snacks, probably bags of microwave oatmeal. These are light meals and breakfasts and you just need a bowl and some water, but they are a little boring. The fix is simple: take a banana. Bring one from home, or maybe it’s in the same pantry.
Instead of slicing the banana into slices to sprinkle on the oatmeal, mash it in the bottom of a bowl and add the oatmeal and water (or milk!) On top. Stir together halfway through microwave cooking so the banana and oats mix evenly. Not only will you get a tastier snack, the banana will add volume that will keep you feeling full, so you can focus on cooking instead of rumbling in your stomach.
Even if your office doesn’t have any snacks at all, just toss a banana in your bag in the morning along with a bag of microwave oatmeal. You can even bring a couple of bananas and a box of oatmeal early in the week. The riper the banana is, the better it will work.
