Do you know those really cold and wet winter mornings? Today is one of those and this Turmeric Chai Porridge is my antidote, it is a deliciously warming breakfast to get the day started on a cold and wet weekend. Sometimes you just need something a little special to get your day started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On those cold winters days I love to find some real healthy comfort food to give you a great start. We have all eaten porridge to get the day started. I love hearty rolled oats<\/a> cooked into a porridge oats then topped with banana and nuts<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a bag of the Eclipse Organics Turmeric Chai Spice mix<\/a> that I use in my smoothie most days. This is another of the Eclipse Organics spice blends that has an amazing vibrant flavour . It is the flavour of Indian chai spices with and extra touch of turmeric for some super health benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I climbed out of bed this morning and put on the jug. While the jug was boiling I grabbed the oats out of the cupboard and tossed a cup into a saucepan on the stove. I love to dry roast my oats for a few minutest to add a richer flavour to my porridge. Following that I grabbed my milk, I personally prefer soy milk as it is very high in protein and tastes great, and added it to the oats with the boiled water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the basics of this turmeric chai porridge done, now you can get create. I tossed in a couple of teaspoons of the Turmeric Chai spice mix with typical Indian additions; currants, cashews and pepitas. The perfect way to eat this is to enjoy with natural yoghurt.<\/p>\n\n\n
