Overnight Oats


 Overnight oats are my go-to for at least three days a week. They are easy to make ahead of time, and are portable.  My recipe is oddly easy:


Ingredients:

1 cup of rolled oats

1 cup of oat milk

1/2 cup of Whole Milk Greek Yogurt

2 tablespoons of Chia Seeds

Mix the ingredients up. Then place them into a cute little Mason Jar.


That is the basics. But you can add so much more than that.




I leave the basic overnight oats in the refrigerator for two hours or overnight. They are good for about 4 days.


But typically in the morning I add two teaspoons of peanut butter, and some fruit like fresh blueberries, strawberries or a banana. 


Mediterranean Diet Points:

1/5th for whole grains

1/3 for fruit (if you add 3 oz of fruit and the chia seeds)

1/2 for legumes (peanut butter).
