Looking for a healthy, easy, and delicious snack?

This recipe is kid-approved, meal-prep friendly, and full of warm, comforting flavors.

Instructions

  1. Soak 1 cup of oats in 1 cup of water for at least 10-15 minutes, or until the oats have softened and absorbed most of the water.
  2. While the oats are soaking, finely chop your chosen vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, and spinach.
  3. Drain any excess water from the soaked oats, if necessary.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the soaked oats, chopped bell peppers, onions, spinach, and salt to taste. Mix thoroughly to form a cohesive mixture.
  5. Divide the mixture and shape it into small, flat cutlets (Oatlets).
  6. Heat a pan with a little oil over medium heat.
  7. Place the formed oatlets in the hot pan and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Serve the crispy oatlets hot with a side of yogurt or chutney.
  9. Take a wrap (like a tortilla) and place one or more cooked oatlets onto it.
  10. Add a slice of cheese and any desired sauces over the oatlets on the wrap.
  11. Fold the wrap into a pocket or roll it tightly.
  12. Toast the filled wrap in a pan, on a griddle, or in a toaster until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  13. Serve the warm, melty Snacklet Wrap immediately.
