Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup sultanas
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup grated beetroot
  • (Optional: sweetener to taste, like maple syrup, stevia, blackstrap molasses)

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.
  • Heat over a low-medium heat.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until the porridge has thickened.
  • Remove from the heat and top with desired toppings (chocolate sauce, fresh fruit, nuts, seeds...).

Notes

You can make an easy chocolate sauce by mixing 1 tbs raw cacao powder, 1 tbs melted coconut oil and 1 tbs blackstrap molasses (or use another liquid sweetener, but I like the rich taste of the molasses with this porridge).
