This gluten-free chia oatmeal is really simple breakfast that’s delicious and filling. And you can vary it lots of ways with different add-ins.
The basic recipe came from my brother-in-law who is following the low FODMAP diet. He kept telling me how great this breakfast idea was, and when I gave it a try, I had to agree.
