The healthy meals are made with a combination of gluten-free oats, quinoa, flax and chia seeds, plus a topping of the brand's award-winning Original Ancient Grain Granola for added crunch. The single-serve cups can be prepared in two ways, including as a heated meal with the addition of hot water or placing them in the microwave, or alternatively as overnight oats with the addition of nut milk. The gluten-free oat cups were introduced by the brand at Natural Products Expo West in three flavors that are sweetened slightly with coconut sugar: Raspberry Pitaya, Blueberry Lemon with the blue-green algae spirulina and Coconut Turmeric. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Gluten-free Single-serve Meals:** Opportunity for creating more convenient and easily accessible gluten-free meal options. - **Ancient Grain-based Products:** Innovation potential for using ancient grains in various food and beverage products. - **On-the-go Breakfast Solutions:** Market potential for convenient and nutritious breakfast options that can be consumed while on the move. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food Packaging:** Potential for designing specialized packaging solutions to enhance the convenience and portability of single-serve meals. - **Health Foods:** Opportunity for developing new products and flavors using gluten-free and ancient grain ingredients. - **Convenience Foods:** Innovation potential for creating quick and easy meal solutions for busy individuals and travelers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gluten-Free Porridge Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glutenfree-porridge-pots.md) - [Nostalgic Protein-Rich Oatmeals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-oatmeal.md) - [Ancient Grain Oats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gluten-free-organic-rolled-oats.md) - [Plant Protein Oatmeal Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-oatmeal-cups.md) - [Plant-Based Overnight Oats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocojune.md) - [Unique Ready-to-Eat Oats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lemon-and-chocolate-coconut.md) - [High-Fiber Instant Oatmeals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mylk-labs.md) - [Prepackaged Overnight Oat Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dozy-oats.md) - [Plant-Powered Breakfast Jars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oatsu.md)
