Ingredients in Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal:

  • Large flake rolled oats
  • Cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice and ground cloves
  • Chia seeds
  • Baking powder and salt
  • Vanilla extract
  • Pure maple syrup
  • Pumpkin puree- not pumpkin pie filling
  • 1 egg
  • Soy milk *Or milk of choice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

What you’ll need:

  • 1 mixing bowl
  • An 8×8 baking dish
  • Parchment paper or oil to grease

Why I love pumpkin as a dietitian:

If you didn’t already need another reason to whip out the pumpkin puree, I also love using it in cooking for it’s health benefits. Pure pumpkin puree is different from pumpkin pie filling which has spices and sugar added. I like to control the sweetness level to make delicious and healthy baked goods that are easy on the added sugar. 

Pumpkin is naturally packed with:

  • Fibre which is amazing for your gut health & making this a filling, satisfying snack
  • Antioxidant beta-carotene which gives pumpkin it’s orange flavour
  • A variety of vitamins & minerals including vitamin C, K, and potassium

Serving suggestions:

This recipe makes 8-12 servings. I like to slice the baked oatmeal into 8 bars, but feel free to slice into 12 squares if you have a smaller appetite at breakfast.

Pair with:

  • Greek yogurt for extra protein
  • Nut butter
  • A drizzle of pure maple syrup

New! Mini Eggplant Pizzas by @thedietitianfeed A New! Mini Eggplant Pizzas by @thedietitianfeed

A simple & delicious snack idea or addition to a meal! These mini eggplant pizzas are a great way to eat more vegetables, and I love including a few flatbread rounds to make it more substantial for a full meal.

Like & save this post for later & follow me @thedietitianfeed for more delicious, healthy meal ideas!

Makes 2 servings, easily customizable to make more or less servings. Just adjust the amount of eggplant slices you use.

Ingredients: 
* ½ of an eggplant, sliced into ¼ inch thick rounds 
* Pinch salt
* Olive oil 
* 4 mini flatbread rounds
* Marinara sauce or tomato sauce of choice- I just used leftover pasta sauce
* Shredded Mozzarella cheese
* Grated Parmesan cheese
* Pinch of Italian seasoning  or dried basil and oregano
* Fresh basil or parsley if desired

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the eggplant and sprinkle with salt on both sides, allow to sit for about 10 minutes while the oven preheats,  this will sweat out some of the water in the eggplant. 
2. Wipe off the excess water from the eggplant with a paper towel and brush with olive oil on both sides. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. 
3. Remove from the oven and place your flatbread rounds on the baking sheet as well. Top each slice of eggplant and flatbread with about 1 tbsp of sauce, then the cheeses and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning. 
4. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and browned around the edges. Top with fresh parsley if desired and Enjoy!
