Oh, blueberries. So good, and so good for us. And this recipe has slow-cooked berries inside and fresh berries on top! Here's a single-serving storage hack: Divide the cooled oatmeal into four containers, and top with the remaining berries; then you don’t even need to scoop out your serving in the morning. Just heat (or don't) and eat! Dig this? You'll love the apple-maple spin.

Banana bread is generally off-limits for those of us watching what we eat. Too much sugar, too much fat, and not enough nutrients. But this recipe depends on real fruit (bananas and apples) plus a bit of stevia for sweetness, and it's made with healthyingredients like whole-wheat flour and egg whites. A slice of this and a yogurt cup would make a nutritious breakfast!
