Overnight Oats
Karina Arnold swears by this morning time-saver recipe for anyone with hectic mornings. She loves to change the flavors and try different combinations.
Note: Do not add nuts, granola or any other ingredients that would get soggy overnight. For on-the-go, pack ingredients in a separate baggie and top when you are about to eat.
½ cup oats
1 Tbsp. Chia seeds
½ cup frozen berries (do not have to be frozen but keep oats cold for on-the go)
½ cup unsweetened milk of choice (Karina used coconut)
½ cup vanilla Greek yogurt
½ banana (can be frozen) sliced
Optional flavorings: cocoa, protein powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract
Optional toppings: nut-butter, nuts, berries, seeds, preserves, honey, cinnamon, granola
Start with a jar that has a lid (preferably a glass jar). Add granola, then layer yogurt, and other flavorings on top. Then, layer with chia seeds and frozen fruit. Top with milk. Cover tightly with a lid and shake until ingredients thoroughly combined. Refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, add banana and any additional toppings and enjoy!
