Quick, easy, and healthy; if you need something to keep you going all day though this winter, nothing beats oatmeal. Rolled oats are among the most nutrient-dense foods you can eat. Perfect for slow-release energy, they are full of antioxidants and fibre and can lower cholesterol – though quick oats don’t contain the same benefits. Great for those avoiding sugar and, if you leave out the fruit and milk, it’s a wonderful natural face cleanser, too.
