Overnight Oats

Overnight oats have quite a few perks:
There’s no cooking at all, which means no pots to clean.
The breakfast takes 5 minutes to assemble the night before so you can start eating within minutes of waking or on the go.
You can prep them in any kind of to-go container from Tupperware to a mason jar, so they travel well.
Packed with protein from Greek yogurt and milk, this breakfast will keep you full all morning.
You can customize them any way you like with various fruits, nuts, and mix-ins.
There are many variations to overnight oats – vegan versions, no yogurt, plus chia seeds, and more.
This is my very favorite combination:
Ingredients
⅓ cup rolled oats
⅓ – ½ cup milk (depending on how thick you like it)
⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt (or plain regular style if you like)
½ banana
½ tbsp chia seeds
Pinch salt
Splash vanilla extract
Pinch cinnamon
Instructions
Stir everything together in a bowl.
Place in fridge overnight.
In the morning top with something crunchy and something with healthy fats – like nut butter or nuts.
It’s even more fun if you prepare the above in a near-empty jar of your favorite almond, peanut or sunflower butter.
Scrape the sides as you enjoy!
And for even more of a twist, prepare the oats in a blender and store in the fridge overnight.
In the morning, blend everything together into a doughy, batter-like smoothie that I call a “Dough Boy.”
Add toppings to your heart’s desire.
Bon appétit! How do you eat your oatmeal?
