🌱 Why is it nourishing?
Oats are rich in fiber and slow-release carbohydrates and can help keep you full for longer through the busy flow of days with a baby; they are a filling grain traditionally favored by breastfeeding mothers. Banana provides potassium and natural sweetness, while walnuts add healthy fats and chia seeds bring fiber and plant-based omega-3. Prepared with milk, this bowl also adds calcium and protein, making it a balanced, practical start.
