Ingredients

  • 300 fruit cocktail in juice canned
  • tsp ginger finely grated
  •  grapefruit 
  • 75 oatmeal 
  • 550 yogurt plain 0%

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • microwave
  • immersion blender

Directions

  1. For the topping: Tip the apricots and juice into a bowl, add ginger. Blitz half the mixture to a pure with a hand blender. Stir in the grapefruit and juice. Can be made ahead and chilled for up to 1 week.
  2. For the porridge: Tip 200ml water into a small non-stick pan and stir in porridge oats. Cook over a low heat until bubbling and thickened. (To make in a microwave, use a deep container to prevent spillage as the mixture will rise up as it cooks, and cook for 3 mins on High.) Stir in yogurt or swirl in half and top with the rest. Top with the apricot mix.
