Rolled oats are an amazing product; cost-effective, high in protein and magnesium, and easy to work with. The downside is that most people only use it to make breakfast oatmeal when there’s so much more to do with oats! Try these recipes and tricks to make the most out of your oats.
Face Mask
Oatmeal is a humectant, which means it helps contain moisture. This is the reason why oats make such a fabulous face mask! To make this hydrating face mask, blend the oats into a powder, combine with honey and water, and you’re ready to have refreshed skin!
