This simple vegan coconut oatmeal (porridge) with blueberry compote is as delicious as it is healthy. An excellent way to start your day!
I hesitate to call this a recipe – it has so very few ingredients and is ready in under 10 minutes. I somehow feel like a blog post is not a blog post unless I put some real hard work into it… But since it is so very delicious I feel like I should share it. Basically this is, technically, porridge (i.e. oatmeal) so you can eat it for breakfast and feel virtuous. It tastes very much like dessert however – or pudding as my kids would say – I would happily eat it any time of day.
The blueberry compote (leftover from the blintzes) is also incredibly easy. I used frozen blueberries as they are, somehow, almost half the price of fresh ones. You can use fresh if you prefer or substitute with other berries.
