Porridge Oats, The Number One Cholesterol lowering food.

A bowl of porridge is the best way to tackle too high cholesterol

Nothing lifts your day better for me than homemade porridge, cooked on the stove, the slow way, 6 minutes in continuous stirring, you don’t even need milk to make it creamy when you do it this was just Tesco organic oats and water.

I’ve tried other varieties of porridge oats, from branded oat experts Quaker to duchy of Cornwall oats at Waitrose to other generic brands and none taste as good as Tesco organic oats.

I serve mine with a dollop of Lyle’s golden syrup, and sometimes a banana if I have got one handy.

It is the perfect winter breakfast and really worth the effort over instant or ready brek alternatives.

Theres nothing better for combating chlorestoral problems than a bowl of porridge and for anyone trying to drop a few pounds after the holidays porridge will keep you fuller for longer, way better than toast. Oats in the morning first thing will prevent mid morning snacking.

Tesco Organic Oats cost around £2.30 a bag and we get two weeks about from one bag, say 30-35 bowls so excellent value too.

I used to love chocolate ready brek, a super smooth, nutrient-rich option from Weetabix, so occasionally I stir in a teaspoon of cocoa or drinking chocolate whilst cooking for a better than version of nostalgia if in a hurry you can make in about 90 seconds My drinking chocolate recipe with Tesco organic oats is way superior though.

.Like really delicious risotto it’s the standing and stirring that makes the difference.
