Carrot Cake Oatmeal

Happy Labor Day! This morning I did a little celebration with some delicious carrot cake oatmeal! I was inspired by one of my friends on Instagram to put carrots in your oatmeal which gives it more volume and makes it taste sweet. I topped my oatmeal with silvered almonds, granola, raisins, and a sprinkle of cinnamon!

  Today for Labor Day I will be having a bar-b-que with my family and grandparents. I hope to also find something fun to do. Have a great day!
