Chocolate + Fig Oatmeal

Please excuse my water hose… It has 3 jobs and a perfidious spouse, so I just leave it alone. Haha.

Anyways, this recipe comes together in 5 minutes and is SO creamy and delicious! Since it's so simple, you can easily add nuts, fruit, or whatever mix-ins or toppings your heart desires!

You can also omit the Cocoa, or add more depending on how intense you want the chocolate flavor to be. I love making these oats at night, mixing it with peanut butter and chilling it overnight for a quick breakfast the next morning!

Okay, okay, here is the recipe.
