Chocolate Raspberry Protein Oats #EatMoreOats

I love starting out my day with a bowl of steel cut oats.  They are filling, nutritious and great for maintaining a healthy body weight.   I prefer the steel cut variety, for their great texture.  They also have zero sugar per 1/4 cup dry oats compared to 1 gram sugar in dry rolled oats.  They both contain the same amount of protein and fiber.

Pacific Foods has come out with these convenient cartons of steel cut oats to make breakfast on-the-run a lot easier!  I think these would also be great for hiking or camping, when you need good healthy carbs for fuel.  No stove necessary, just heat and enjoy or eat straight out of the carton!
