Healthy and very easy breakfast: Banana and oats pudding mixed with some chia seeds and nuts- so simple, tasty and healthy to have it for breakfast.
I recommend to make this pudding in the evening and freeze it overnight to have super nice and healthy breakfast in the morning.

Ingredients:

Banana- 1 large mashed

Cinnamon powder- 1/4 tsp
Milk- 5tbsp

Ingredients for toppings:

Fresh fruit
Nuts and seeds

Method-

Take oats, mashed banana and milk in a pan and cook it for 5 minutes. Then add chia seeds, cinnamon powder. Transfer that in a bowl and keep it in fridge overnight. In the morning takw out the oat bowl and give it a mix. If the oats mixture is too thick add a splash of milk and mix it well. 
Add the toppings as per the choice. I have added fresh pomegranate and mix nuts like almonds, pista, cashews, raisins etc.
