Good Food In Hard Times Heart Healthy

New recipe helps the heart, body and soul on a budget!

Lower your cholesterol with this new Heart Healthy recipe.

A good positive grain combination that is very affordable for those on a tight budget in hard times. The mixture of jasmine rice and whole oats help keep you feeling full for longer than one or two hours especially in the morning when you need to get through till lunch time.  I'm not a doctor or scientist, just a creative cook that has discovered through trial and error what works best for me and my family.  I believe these grains combined together continue to absorb fluids in the stomach while in their al dente state, keeping you full longer.

Have you ever noticed just eating rice alone burns fast in your stomach and you are hungry in just an hour or so?  Same thing with just plain oatmeal, it burns fast too.  The combination of the two allows you not to feel hungry for a longer period of time.

Be experimental with this basic recipe and learn how to master the consistency and taste you like, add new things.  I just learned that if you add a few dashes of nutmeg after the final boil and stir it in, it  will add a very unique taste that is very pleasing.

Don't cook in a boil, just let it rest after it comes to a boil!

You need Jasmine Rice that has a 20 minute cooking time and the oats need to be the old fashioned ones, not the quick ones.
