Simple seasonal oatmeal and yogurt bowl recipes

Winter in NYC has been so cold lately it makes me want to stay in all week. My favorite way to warm up has been with a toasty bowl of oatmeal or a bowl of yogurt. Creating healthy yogurt and oatmeal bowls has been fun and pretty simple, considering I'm not a trained chef but a person that cooks with love. Stay warm and cozy and enjoy the following recipes!
