Cook Oats:
Bring water and ⅓ cup almond milk to boil in a saucepan.
Stir in the oats and bring to a boil again.
Cover with a lid, reduce heat to a low simmer, and let cook 20 minutes (or longer if needed) until soft and creamy. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.
If oats get too thick, add water to thin it out.
Assemble:
Place cauliflower rice in a bowl and microwave on high for 1½ minutes until tender.
In a large bowl, add cooked oats, cauliflower rice, chocolate protein powder, cacao powder or cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg and cayenne pepper.
Pour in about ¼ cup milk and stir to combine. Add more milk if needed.
