Dreamy Creamy Coconut Oats

I found something new at a local grocery store yesterday and picked it up to try in our  oats. It is called Coconut Dream and comes in the same style tetra paks as Almond Breeze.



I bought the unsweetened original flavor, and after bringing it home, I calculated the Weight Watchers Points Plus values for it. I was pleasantly surprised that is is only 1 P+ per cup.

Today I used it to cook up our morning oats and they turned out very creamy and had a slight coconut flavor. Very nice. The bit of fat it contains really helped the oats satisfy me till lunch time.

If you want an even more intense coconut flavor, add 2 tsp of cocunut oil to the cooked oats... and add 1 more WW P+ too, per serving.
