It is that time of year again where the air becomes cooler and crisper and it is time for a warm and hearty breakfast. I have the perfect recipe to get you in the Fall mood and warm you up! It is pumpkin oatmeal. It is high in fiber and protein and low in sugar, so it will help keep you slim for the holiday season to come. Enjoy!
