In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt to a boil.
Add the rolled oats to the boiling water, reduce heat to medium, and simmer uncovered for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until creamy.
While the oats are cooking, prepare your summer harvest toppings. Slice the strawberries, dice the peach, and set aside the blueberries, almonds, and chia seeds.
Once the oats are cooked, remove them from heat and let them sit for a minute to thicken.
Divide the oatmeal evenly between two bowls.
Top each bowl with sliced strawberries, blueberries, diced peach, chia seeds, and chopped almonds.
Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of honey (or maple syrup) over each bowl for natural sweetness.
Optional: Pour a splash of unsweetened almond milk over the oatmeal for extra creaminess.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vibrant and healthy Summer Harvest Oatmeal!
