Easy Overnight Oats
This recipe is one of my all time favorite recipes and I’m going to tell all the reasons why. First off, this can easily be meal prepped and I have my breakfast for the week made in no time. It is such a quick meal to throw together, I take my tablespoon and go from jar to jar, scooping my favorite seeds and add-ins. You guys know I love meals that I can personalize and change up in many ways. Some days I add peanut butter, cocoa powder, more seeds, less seeds, different fruits, different protein powders, it is truly a delicious base that you can add ANY flavor combos to. I have eaten this breakfast almost every week day for about 6 months now… still not tired of it! You really can’t go wrong playing around with this meal. Overall, it is incredibly nutritious, versatile and easy.. what more can you ask for!
