CAULIFLOWER OATMEAL RECIPE
1/3-1/2 cup (35g) old-fashioned rolled oats
3/4 cup water
1 cup (100g) frozen cauliflower rice
1/2 cup (135g) egg whites
1/2 scoop (14g) vanilla protein powder I use Tera’s Whey
Cinnamon +nut butter + berries!
STOVETOP METHOD
Place oatmeal and water in a small saucepan and cook for two minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in cauliflower rice and cook for another 1-2 minutes. You want the oats and cauliflower to be warm but not hot (if the oats are too hot, the egg whites will scramble).
Slowly stir in the egg whites and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Do this slowly over low-medium heat, so the egg whites temper and become nice and creamy. You will know the oats are done because they will nearly double in size and will be super fluffy and creamy.
Transfer to a serving bowl and stir in protein powder and cinnamon. Add your favorite toppings (I love fresh berries + nut butter!) and enjoy!

MICROWAVE METHOD
Place oatmeal and water in a microwave-safe bowl (I like using a spouted glass cup). Microwave for 1-2 minutes.
Stir in cauliflower and microwave for another 1-2 minutes. You want the oats and cauliflower to be warm but not super hot (if the oats are too hot, the egg whites will scramble).
Slowly stir in the egg whites and cook for another 1-2 minutes (checking and stirring after one minute). You will know the oats are done because they will nearly double in size and will be super fluffy and creamy.
Transfer to a serving bowl and stir in protein powder and cinnamon, and add your favorite toppings.
NOTES
Make ahead: For busier mornings you can prep this oatmeal the night before. Cook as directed, then store in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Reheat either on the stovetop or in the microwave with a splash of almond milk or water. It will kept in the refrigerator for up to about 3 days.

Happy Friday!! I am absolutely ADDICTED to this oatmeal recipe and am so excited to share it with you! I can't wait to hear what you think. XO – Dani
To be successful, you have to use each day as an opportunity to improve. to get a little bit closer to your goals. It might sound like a lot of work—and with a busy schedule, next to impossible. But the best part is, the more you accomplish, the more you’ll want to do, the higher you’ll want to reach Ur explanations of ur vlogs are really amazing. 🤝Stay Blessed and stay connected 😍
I love the idea of cauliflower in the oatmeal. I have seen recipes using shredded zucchini as well (they call it zoats,) but I think the cauliflower would be better and add more nutrients. And what a great idea to add protein powder! I plan to try that. I typically make oatmeal with hemp seeds for higher protein and lower carbs. I use half the amount of oats specified and sub hemp seeds for the other half. Then I add cinnamon, a little fruit, and Lakanto maple syrup (again for lower carb). If I don't have fresh fruit, I just toss in frozen while the oats are cooking. Some pecans or walnuts get added at the end of the cooking, along with ground flax seeds. It makes a dish with a lot of fiber. If a person isn't used to high fiber, I'd start off slow on the flax seeds and hemp seeds.
Thank you, Dani 😘. It looks so yummy.
I will try this recipe.
I have never put egg white in my oatmeal…
Usually I just put milk.
Very interesting. This may keep me full longer. Thanks!
🤯😋❤️
I've used hotlogic mini and I added 50 grams of oats, 250ml fat free milk, 100 grams cauliflower rice, 15 grams of stevia, pitch of salt, 1tsp vanilla extract. Mix together and plug into a hotlogic mini for overnight.
Happy Weekend, Dani! 💗 I can't wait to make it this way! YUMM!!!! Thanks 💐
I am plant based so any recommendations for subbing the eggs white well maybe Aquafaba?
Can I add fresh egg whites ? Will they get scrambled after adding
You can also use Zucchini or egg whites instead of cauliflower wont Taste it as well and again gives volume
Replace the water with some type of organic juice. It is fantastic.
Happy Friday to you too! Cauliflower in oatmeal? This is going to be good. I will give it a go. Thanks Dani.
If my husband finds out I put cauliflower in our oatmeal he will probably never eat it again, hoping I can keep this a secret!
Oh wow! Can't wait to try this…I love my oatmeal with cinnamon peanut butter and banana
Blueberrys strawberrys oatmeal water til boil add banana cinnamon. Manfood. Need eggwhites too Thanks
Any substitutions for egg whites?
I’m so trying this! I’ve done grated zucchini which works great too if you don’t have cauliflower. TY Dani! I LOVE your recipes and channel. 🤗
Thank you ! I'm definitely going to try. I've been adding egg whites to my oats for yrs because of you. I like to not Over cooks them. So they have this loose ,super creamy texture. Take them out a little runny. They will thicken up fast ☺️
Can I sub nutritional yeast in place of protein powder?
I thought oatmeal wasn’t acceptable on a Keto diet?
You are very gifted
I love cinnamon and vanilla.
Hello!! Could this be made the night before and reheated?? Thank you.
Genius! We all need more cruciferous veges! BTW I released a new video yesterday, I hope you'll visit 😊
WOW! What a Great Idea to suppress hunger pains. I just shared this video to many people.
I need to try this! We rarely eat oatmeal because it seems like we're super hungry an hour later. Thanks, Dani!
Almost forgot…we like to add chopped apples, some maple syrup, cinnamon and some almond milk! Then we drizzle sliced almonds or pecans on top for some crunch. Love it!
Mixing with cauliflower is genius. Thanks!
Dani I don't like fruity/sweet in morning therefore I made me a savory oats recipe. It's of with kimchi, pintos, walnuts butter, Parmesan.YUM👍😋
This looks like a real winner, Dani! I love oatmeal, and the instant heated up can be blah, while the delivery order is not always right, or arrives warm. I cannot add protein powder due ro ckd, but I could add brown sugar at that step or raisins? I love berries – best fit fiber for my kidneys – often mix them with granola, yogurt and peaches as a morning mea. I used to be an avid cook, and learned so much from you over the years!. Thank you much! I still watch every week and try to learnnsomextricks,,even if a family member has to fix it. You are such a joy to watch in the morning – beautiful, perky and adorable kids! For sure, the best thing to come out of NJ!c Thank you so much! Yes, men watch your great show, and love to cook! All the Best of God's blessings to you and your family!
I haven't watched the video yet, but I already know what the secret ingredient is!!! Can you saaaaaaaaaaay, liquid egg whites!!
I never thought to put egg whites in oatmeal until I saw one of your videos! I love, love, love what they do for it. So yummy!!!😋
ooo. Gotta try this. You already talked me into doing the egg whites. SO GOOD. I like to top mine with PB and date paste and cinnamon.
I make a porridge with rice instead of gluten oatmeal.
I just use almond milk and mixed berries with honey and walnuts and cinnamon
I'm allergic to eggs due to autoimmune disease and gluten free but I could try protein powder and cauliflower.
Microwaves takes out all the nutrients.
Sounds great. Will be trying it
Thanks for the recipe. Can this be meal prep the night before and reheated?
Can you do this recipe in the slow cooker?
I love adding flaxseeds and honey. I will try adding cauliflower too.
I put in 1 tbsp cacao powder and 50-100ml of coffee in my oatmeal (and ofc milk + some type sweetener) to get a mocha oatmeal. Top it up with banana and syrup. Super delicious!
