I recently heard of something that's taken Instagram by storm (apparently, I don't follow enough millennials or food bloggers) – banana milk.

I thought this sounded too ridiculous to pass up, and couldn't resist giving it a try.

And you know what … wasn't half bad. A little carbier than I usually like to go, but not bad at all. If you've ever had banana as a smoothie base, you'll know what I mean – this fruit blends well.

Banana Milk Faux-meal

1 banana
1 cup water
Pinch salt
2 Tbsp. chia seeds
2 Tbsp. flaxseed meal
2 Tbsp. unsweetened coconut
1/4 c. berries (I had frozen cherries)
Sprinkle cinnamon
Sprinkle nutmeg
Dash maple extract (optional)

Blend the banana, water and a pinch of salt.

Add half a cup of the banana Milk to a bowl. Top with the rest of the ingredients.

Stir to combine. Let sit 2 – 3 minutes before enjoying like oatmeal.
