Looking to put that Instant Pot to use? We couldn’t think of a better way to use it than this recipe from Ocean himself! Not only can you add all of the ingredients and walk away (no more oatmeal boiling over!), but you can also feel good knowing that this savory oatmeal is full of ingredients — think turmeric, kale, oats, garlic, and more! — that support optimal health.

If you enjoy a savory breakfast, this one's for you! It’s also for you if you like recipes that are great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, because this bowl is delicious any time of day. It calls for millet, but feel free to experiment with any organic whole grain you like. It’s also packed with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients thanks to the variety of colorful vegetables. Honestly, it’s almost too pretty to eat! Pro-tip: Make it the night before so the dressing has time to marinate the grains and veggies, creating even more delicious flavors (it’s great hot or cold!).

If a warm, comforting cereal is your breakfast jam and you haven’t yet tried teff then we highly recommend giving this Apple Cinnamon Teff Porridge a go. Teff is naturally sweet and nutty on its own, therefore you don’t need much in the way of added sweetness to make this porridge delicious. Add apples, cinnamon, dates, and walnuts for more naturally sweet and nutty flavors and, if you’d like it a bit more sweet, just a touch of maple will do.

Lavender contributes a floral flavor while lemon adds some brightness and poppy seeds lend a little crunch to these lovely Lavender Lemon Poppy Scones. Get ready, because the aroma will make them hard to resist straight out of the oven!

Even if you’re not a fan of winter, these edible, naturally sweet snowballs are something you’ll most likely enjoy making and then eating as a mid-afternoon snack or after-dinner treat. Because coconut is reminiscent of snowflakes, these bite-sized snacks also create a sense of cheer as a display on your kitchen table. Cranberries are chock-full of vitamin C and fiber while coconut is packed with manganese, copper, and even more fiber!

Was your favorite childhood sandwich a good old pb&j? Well, envision the same yumminess, but instead of white bread with processed nut butter and sugar-filled jelly, you get energizing oats, satisfying nut butter, and antioxidant-rich strawberries chia spread. This protein-packed, fiber-filled snack can help to keep you fueled throughout the day. Even if you weren’t a pb&j kid, you might just become a pb&j adult!

These buckwheat chia pancakes will swoon flapjack aficionados and convert those who typically shun pancakes for breakfast. Their light texture, nutty flavor and nutritious ingredients redefine pancakes as you know them. Bonus that they also make a delicious snack in the afternoon or energizing fuel before exercise!

So simple, yet so decadent, apples take center stage as a warm dessert you never knew you loved … until now. The beauty of warm apples is that they can be enjoyed solo or mixed in plant-based yogurt (yum!), alongside plant-based “nice” cream, or topped with your favorite homemade granola. No matter which way you choose to enjoy them, this cozy treat will give you all the feelings from head to toe.

Nothing beats waking up in the morning knowing that your breakfast is waiting for you, and this simple recipe will be there when you return from your vigorous morning workout. Studies show that cherries can reduce pain from arthritis and exercise-related soreness. Oatmeal replenishes carbohydrate stores. Chia seeds provide omega-3s, essential fatty acids shown to help reduce inflammation. Finally, pistachios get their green color from chlorophyll, the same healing compound found in leafy greens, AND it was recently found that pistachios are a complete protein with all nine essential amino acids! Talk about an ideal recovery meal.
