Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small saucepan, combine the rolled oats, unsweetened almond milk, diced pear, ground flaxseed, and chia seeds. Stir well so the seeds don’t clump.

  2. 2

    Place the saucepan over low-medium heat and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oats are soft, the pear pieces are tender, and the mixture has thickened but is still creamy. Add a splash of water if it becomes too thick.

  3. 3

    Remove from the heat and let the porridge sit for 2 minutes to cool slightly and allow the chia and flax to swell further, which adds gentle, gel-like fiber that is easier on a sensitive GLP-1 stomach.

  4. 4

    Stir in the Greek yogurt until fully combined and creamy. Taste and add the honey if you want mild sweetness, then sprinkle the chopped almonds on top just before serving for a small boost of magnesium and texture.

GLP-1 Tips

  • If your stomach feels sensitive on GLP-1 medication, add an extra 30–50 ml of warm water or almond milk to thin the porridge and eat it slowly, which can help both nausea and constipation by providing gentle fluid and soluble fiber.
  • For very low appetite mornings, eat half a serving and save the rest for later; even a few spoonfuls provide fiber, protein, and magnesium to support regularity.

Storage

Cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Add a splash of water or almond milk and reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, stirring well before eating.
