Oats look boring on the first sight but when you find your perfect combination I am pretty sure you will like it and it will become your favorite breakfast. For you who never made healthy breakfast strawberry oatmeal bars I can only say that you can make them very easy and for a very short time. Also you can add your favorite fruit and find your favorite combination, but now strawberries are popular in this time of year so I use them very much in these days. I use them to make salads, desserts or juices.
