Vickys Red Velvet Porridge Oats

Ingredients:
oats
cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened
beets, raw
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d

Directions:
Add all ingredients to a saucepan
Let simmer for 2 minutes or until well thickened
Sweeten to taste and serve with a swirl of coconut milk or cream on top
For one serving I add 2 tsp of beetroot powder but if you follow that rule per serving you'll have very pink porridge!
Too much does impart on taste too but it's by no means unpleasant.
It's quite sweet actually so you may not need as much sugar as you'd think.
Of course you can skip the beetroot powder and use food dye instead or just leave it out altogether
Here are my Red Velvet cake and cupcakes recipes which use beetroot for the colouring rather than food dye.
I also use beetroot to colour my tomato-free tomato sauce!
