Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. This nutrient dense Sweet Potato Oats Porridge is very suitable to enjoy during the weekends as it takes slightly longer to prepare. Many healthy ingredients, such as black beans, sweet potato, wolf berries & wakame are added. Wolfberries, also known as goji berries, are full of anti-oxidants and said to have anti-inflammatory properties. Miso, a probiotics food, contains active cultures of bacteria, is also added. It is added after cooking has completed. Do not add miso while cooking as this will kill the live bacteria present.
