Carrot, Pear, & Nutmeg-scented Oats w/ Mascarpone

This date-sweetened steel oats blend is one of my winter favorites. Each flavor is a delight in of itself with the radiant color from the raw carrot, the creaminess from the Italian cheese, the nuttiness and extra protein from the cashew butter, and finally the bright citrus lift that you only get from fresh grated nutmeg. It's highly recommended though you could sub with pre-ground if you need to.
