During the bone-chilling days of winter, I want to wake up to a warm bowl of oatmeal. :Lucikly this simple dish takes just 10 min to prepare. I can even cook up a batch on my prep day and store the oatmeal in individual containers so I can grab it when I have an early day at work. Once a week, I pop it in the microwave and enjoy a filling healthy breakfast.

1) Combine the oats, milk and water in a pot over medium low heat. Bring it to a simmer, stirring frequently. Cook until the oats begin to soften and the liquid thickens, about 7 min. Remove the pot from the heat.
2) Stir in the cinnamon, dates and cacao nibs until evenly distributed and the chocolate is melted.
REFRIGERATE: Store in a resealable container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 2 min then let sit for 2 min for the heat to distribute evenly. If desired, top with a spalsh of milk before eating.
