I love milk! I have to say that when i arrived in the US (long time ago) from Sweden and tasted US milk for the first time i thought it was pretty gross. It was SWEET. Swedish milk tastes like milk, not like someone put tons of sugar in it. It took me awhile to find milk that was not sweet and tasted good. But i found it. Today there are a lot more choices and there are several companies out there that make great milk.
Today there are also tons of milk alternatives and i have always been skeptical about them, i have tried to like soy but i just can’t take the texture, i know it is good for you but it doesn’t go well with me. However i recently tried almond milk.
I was really surprised. I love Almond Milk. I have used the Almost milk just like i use my regular milk and it tastes great. It might even taste a little better in my oatmeal.
Then i started reading about it and little did i know that it is actually better for you?
If you dont like Almond milk you could use Coconut milk as well for this recipe.
