Hosting brunch this spring for your girls? If you just so happen to be and are looking for a fun way to entertain, you'll love today's read. In it, I'm sharing entertaining ideas: create an oatmeal bar with sweet toppings. Don't fall victim to the same old brunch food. Allow me to inspire you with a fun & fresh way to entertain this spring! I'm also happy to introduce you to a lovely oatmeal brand that I had the pleasure of taste-testing, and can in fact confirm, is oh so yummy! There's nothing better than being greeted with a cute little package from Mylk Labs, containing all their delish oatmeal flavors. (Roasted Almond & Himalayan Pink Salt, Roasted Hazelnut & Dominican Cacao, and Toasted Coconut & Cassia Cinnamon)
Entertaining Ideas: Create an Oatmeal Bar with Sweet Toppings
How It's Done:
Creating an oatmeal bar is pretty simple, especially with oatmeal cups as cute as Mylk Labs. I particularly love the cute packaging because it looks great set out as is. No need for fancy serving bowls with packaging as adorable as theirs! To re-create this oatmeal bar, start with an open table and a variety of oatmeal in different flavors. I set out almond, hazelnut and coconut flavored oatmeal, to give a couple options. If you'll be serving oatmeal cups, it makes for easier clean up and guests can create their perfect cup of oatmeal much easier. I can't recommend this option enough for easy entertaining. (no bowls required & everything is pre-portioned!)
