Ingredients

1 cup sliced almonds
zest and juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup honey
1 1/4 cups quick cooking oats or use large for more texture - gluten-free if necessary
1/2 cup dried blueberries

Instructions

In a food processor, process almonds, lemon zest, juice and honey until smooth (this can take a few minutes).
Add in half of the oats and process again until smooth.
Move mixture to a bowl and stir in remaining oats and blueberries. Stir until combined -- you may need to use your hands as they can be pretty sticky!
Store in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks or freeze for up to 6 months.
*To mix things up and add more protein, trying swapping ¼ cup of the oats for chia seeds, hemp seeds or ground flax.

Notes

*VEGAN and PALEO: substitute the honey with a vegan liquid sweetener, such as maple syrup or agave nectar. I chose honey because we always have it and it has a neutral flavor, unlike maple syrup.
