Oatmeal Bar (Counter)

Tweet

I got inspired by this hotel that we stayed in when I visited a client's site. Normally, typical hotel breakfast is not all that good. But this time, I was pleasantly surprised that they have a really good oatmeal bar! Freshly cooked oatmeal, still being warmed, then a whole counter of toppings - from fresh fruits to chocolate chips, nuts, syrup, name it! That definitely levelled up their oatmeal. I liked it so much that that's all I have every morning. When I get back home, I find myself wanting some oatmeal. So I decided to recreate their oatmeal bar. Now mine is not anywhere near as extensive or fancy, but I tried my best. I bought this acrylic seasoning jars and used it to house my oatmeal toppings. I like that they are all in together and look so organized. I have chocolate chips, raisins, walnut, and sliced almonds. I have agave syrup somewhere and I designated a spot in our kitchen counter for our oatmeal bar. Sadly, my husband helps himself to my toppings even after telling him it's meant for oatmeal. He would still try to "steal" some, so I guess I'll just have to make us oatmeal tomorrow so he'll stop snacking on the toppings.
