Overnight Breakfast Oats

1 serving 

1/3 cup old fashioned oats 

3 tablespoons low fat milk (or milk substitution of your choice)

3 tablespoons Greek yogurt 

1/2 tablespoon honey 

1/2 tsp vanilla extract 

1/2 cup diced fresh fruit (bananas or any berries) 

Optional: 

½-1 tsp chia seeds (add in before refrigeration for more fiber and a thicker consistency)

1 tablespoon chopped walnuts or almonds (to add healthy fat)

  1. In a small glass jar, mix the oats, milk, yogurt, vanilla, honey, and chia seeds (if using).
  2. Layer the fruit on top. 
  3. Seal with a tight top and refrigerate overnight (the longer the oats soak, the thicker they will be. 4 hours recommended but overnight is best). 
  4. Top with nuts just before eating.  

This can be eaten cold or warmed for 30-60 seconds for a warm, creamier texture. Make numerous jars at once to eat throughout the week!
