Chocolate orange porridge

Prep:5minCook:3min

These are a daily staple in our house - they mean I can give my family a really nutritious breakfast with absolutely no fuss whatsoever. I would never put so many different ingredients into a porridge if I was making it first thing in the morning - there would just be too much mess when time is so tight. Either quickly heat the oats at home or take them on the go, popping them in the microwave at work or enjoying them just like overnight oats. All the goodness, none of the faff!
