Ingredients
1 cup of gluten free rolled oats
1 cup of water
1 cup of no added sugar, non-dairy milk, coconut, almond, hemp, rice (which ever you prefer)

1 tablespoon of chia seeds (can be omitted)

Chopped berries of choice
Homemade raw granola (blend in a blender; seeds, nuts and dried coconut)
Direction
In a saucepan add the oats, milk, water, chia seeds and shredded kale and bring to boil.
Once at boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes – keep an eye on the porridge, you do not want it to dry up before adding the cacao powder.

Divide and pour into two bowls and add your toppings.
