Notes
If you want to cook your oatmeal in the microwave, make one serving at a time.
Combine 1/3 cup oats, 2/3 cup water, 1/2 chopped banana, and pinch of salt in a microwave safe dish (I like to use these glass spouted cups).
Cook for one minute in the microwave or until the oats are warmed and softened. DO NOT let the oats boil; they will be too hot and scramble the egg whites.
Slowly stir in 1/4 cup of egg whites and microwave for another minute. Stir in cinnamon, transfer to a bowl and top with sliced bananas, peanut butter and hemp seeds. Enjoy!
