Super easy breakfast ideas
Overnight Oats
What you'll need:- 1/2 cup Almond Milk (you could use any milk; I prefer Almond Milk; it has less calories than regular milk, and it's pretty good when used in this recipe)
- 1/2 cup Quaker Oats (it's important to use regular, Old Fashioned Oats; instant will turn out mushy)
- diced fruit (I usually use a half of an apple, or a pear, or a peach)
- seasonings/spices and/or additives of your choice (I usually use cinnamon sugar; sometimes I'll sprinkle almonds on it in the morning)
- any container with a lid (it doesn't have to be a mason jar; I use the reusable plastic containers that lunch meat comes in)
Tips:
- If using bananas, add them in the morning; if you add them the night before, they'll become mushy.
- Same for any nuts you might add -- add them in the morning.
- Play around with the amounts of the ingredients until you find what you like. Some people like more or less of a certain ingredient. Find what you like and go with it.
- Nice consequence of using half of the fruit as you're preparing it the night before -- use the other half as a healthy bedtime snack.
- Google "overnight oats" to find recipes -- there are tons of them out there.
- Experiment in your kitchen with different combinations of your favorite foods.
