  1. Tailored to Your Taste: Customize your oatmeal with a variety of nuts, seeds, fruits, and sweeteners. Say goodbye to one-size-fits-all breakfasts!
  2. Cost-Effective: Bulk oats are budget-friendly, and creating your own packets saves you money compared to buying pre-packaged options.
  3. No Artificial Additives: Ditch the preservatives and artificial flavors found in store-bought packets. Embrace natural, wholesome ingredients for a healthier breakfast.
  4. Reduced Sugar Content: Control the sweetness by adding natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, ensuring a nutritious and balanced breakfast.
  5. Eco-Friendly: Mason jars are reusable and reduce packaging waste. Go green by creating a sustainable breakfast option.

The Morning Magic of Oatmeal:

  • Energy Boost: Oats provide a steady release of energy, keeping you fueled throughout the morning.
  • Heart-Healthy: Oatmeal helps lower cholesterol, promoting a heart-healthy start to your day.
  • Fiber Rich: High fiber content aids digestion, keeping you satisfied until your next meal.

Or maybe it’s called Apricot Sweet & Spicy Chicken Or maybe it’s called Apricot Sweet & Spicy Chicken 🍗🔥, choose one. 

This chicken is sticky, savory, and has the perfect balance of sweet heat.

I used thighs and drumsticks, seasoned them generously, and roasted them until golden and crispy. But the real magic? That apricot glaze.

It’s buttery, bold, and made with jam, mustard, hot sauce, and ginger paste. I poured it right over the crispy chicken and let it soak in. SO good.

This one’s going on repeat.

Full recipe:
Seasoning Mix:
– 2 tsp baking powder
– 1 tbsp garlic powder
– 1 tbsp onion powder
– 1 tbsp smoked paprika
– 1 tbsp ground mustard
– 1 tbsp black pepper
– 1 tbsp ginger paste
– 1 tsp crushed red pepper
– Salt to taste

Bake: Chicken thighs + drumsticks at 400°F until internal temp reaches 165°F.

Apricot Glaze:
– 2 tbsp butter
– 1 small jar apricot jam
– 1 tbsp yellow mustard
– 1 tbsp hot sauce
– 1 tbsp ginger paste

Melt butter, mix in sauce ingredients, simmer, then pour over the cooked chicken. That’s it!

Would you try this? Save it for dinner this week.
