Start your day with this Tropical #BringYourBestBowl Oatmeal with Quaker® Oats, toasted coconut, dried pineapple and bananas foster! 

Growing up, I would wake up to the smell of Quaker® Oats being made for breakfast. My Dad ate oatmeal every morning and it wasn’t long before his love for oatmeal passed down to me!

Now that I am a Mom I too am stirring up delicious bowls of Quaker® Oats! Through the years, I have jazzed up my breakfast bowls a bit and the one I just made may be my best one yet! The inspiration for this tropical tasting bowl comes from my love for the great fruit flavors of a tropical summer vacation!

I am getting ready to enter my bowl into Quaker’s National Bring Your Best Bowl Contest! Check out the exciting details below!

Quaker® Oats, toasted coconut chips, dried pineapple, bananas foster, and raisins come together to create one delicious oatmeal bowl! We are making this Tropical Oatmeal Bowl really amazing by using coconut milk!

The secret success to this sweet, tropical oatmeal bowl is found in one of our favorite fruit desserts bananas foster! The buttery, sweet sugar bananas foster swirls into this bowl of oatmeal adding to the tropical flavors! It’s one of the 2-5 ingredients that I need to enter my oatmeal bowl in the contest!
