Chai Pear Oatmeal

I made this up.  It's awesome.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Chai Tea Latte Concentrate
  • 3/4 cup Water
  • 1 cup Oats (standard or quick)
  • 1/2 Pear (firm)
  • 1/2 cup Blueberries (optional)

Directions
Mix the chai concentrate, water in a saucepan and bring to a boil.  Mix in the oats and reduce heat to medium.

For standard oats, cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

For quick oats, cook for about 1 minute, stirring occasionally.

Turn off heat and mix in the cut up pear pieces and whole blueberries.  Be sure to fold into the oatmeal, without breaking up the fruit.  Let the oatmeal sit for about 2 minutes.  Serve for two!

Notes
I've used both Tazo and Oregon Chai and either is fine.  Shift the balance on the water-to-chai-ratio to get something with a little more (or less) spice.  You can also serve with a small splash of skim milk mixed in and topped with some Kashi granola.
