I was looking for a chicken recipe so I could cook for my parents last night and I came across this Orange & Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry recipe by dōTERRA. Needless to say, I was excited for the opportunity to try something new with my oils.

At the dōTERRA Convention last month, there was a session called “Cooking with Essential Oils”. This is the first one I have road-tested, Green Mandarin Parfait. It is easy to prepare and tastes delicious!

For the last two Winters, my favourite breakfast option has been porridge. It is simple and quick to prepare and most importantly, it tastes delicious. I’m not talking about plain, boring porridge though. I’m talking about a modern take on the traditional dish.
I don’t have a strict recipe that I follow and most things are added free hand, but this is a rough idea of what I do.
Ingredients
1/4 cup of rolled oats
1 tbs of shredded coconut
1 tbs of chia seeds
1 tbs of chopped dates
1 tbs of chopped almonds
1/2 tbs of cinnamon or 2 drops of dōTERRA Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil
1 cup of Milk
Method
Add all your dry ingredients in a saucepan.
Cover with milk and stir well to mix.
Leave for a few minutes for the chia seeds to absorb the milk (I often enjoy a cup of tea while I let it soak).
Add extra milk if it has been completely absorbed.
On medium heat, cook the porridge stirring regularly. When it is a thick consistency, it is ready to serve. You can eat it as is or add milk if preferred.
