Overnight Oats

Wednesday, July 1, 2020
Society has become so fast paced that breakfast has taken a back seat to be only eaten on Saturday or Sunday, as a brunch and bottomless mimosas. Overnight oats are a great way to combat bringing a quick and healthy breakfast back into your life. Not only is it filling, healthy-ish and easy, but toppings also allow for greater variations. Once you get the base recipe down, it's very easy to make a batch for the week and then quickly grab a jar on the go. We typically make a large batch on Sunday, using steel-cut oats, in single serving mason jars and then quickly grab some fruit and nuts. To make a savory option, just remove the sweetener and throw in a jammy egg and bacon. The options are endless.

When it comes to flax and chia seeds, feel free to add what every fiber option feels good to you. I've seen variations with sesame seeds or wheat bran.

Nut milks or non-dairy milks have really hit their stide in the last couple of years and are no longer just a hippie option. While Almond milk is the most popular our there, I encourage you to try other like cashew or coconut.

1 cup steel-cut oats
½ cup whole milk plain Greek yogurt
2 Tbsp. chia seeds

cups almond milk
Pinch of Kosher salt
