Toddler food - Fibrous fun.. Chocolaty oats porridge

Breakfast options for toddlers, wholesome and meeting their ever evolving taste buds... hard to meet their expectations. And which toddler/kid doesn't like eating chocolates all the time... So when i make Oats for my son I do it with a chocolaty twist.. satisfies him as well as me.. Since I don't give him chocolates otherwise i fulfill his choco demand this way..


Preparation time: 2 minutes
Cooking time: 5-6 minutes
Serves: 1 chocolate obsessed toddler


Ingredients: 

1. Oats (I use Quaker Oats, alternatively Safola Oats) 3 tbsp
2. Milk 1/2 cup
3. Water 1/4 cup
4. Sugar 1 tbsp
5. Cocoa powder 2 tsp


Method: 

1. In a microwave safe bowl add oats, milk, water, sugar and cocoa powder and give it a nice stir.
2. Microwave on high stirring in between for about 4-5 minutes not letting it solidify. In case it does add milk.
3. Once done cool a little and serve it to ur kid.

You can garnish with dry fruits if ur toddler has his full set of teeth or even cherries and tutti fruti.

If cooking in a conventional method mix all ingredients and cook it over the stove stirring in between for about 5-6 minutes. You can add milk/water if needed.
