Overnight Oatmeal

If cooking first thing in the morning is not your thing, perhaps this Overnight Oatmeal will interest you. It's easy and offers a base for a variety of options.
This recipe makes 2 servings.

Overnight Oatmeal with Yogurt
In a large bowl mix together:
6 ounces of Greek whole-milk yogurt
2/3 cup organic regular rolled oats
2/3 cup coconut or almond milk*

Stir in a combination of fruit, chopped nuts, peanut butter, ground flax seed, hemp seed or anything else that sounds good. You can also wait and add them before eating.

Spoon the oatmeal mixture into wide-mouthed jars (choose a size of jar that will allow room for stirring) and chill overnight in the refrigerator. You can eat this overnight oatmeal cold, but you can also heat it up if that idea is more appealing for you. The mixture will last for a couple of days if kept in the refrigerator.

If you take your breakfast to work with you, remember: 1) please don't eat while driving, and 2) when eating at work, find a nice quiet spot and focus on your food - no working and eating allowed!! :)

* When using boxed non-dairy nut milks, be sure to check the ingredients - most have some crazy ingredients in them so I encourage you to make your own. It's pretty simple. Check out my recipe for Almond Milk or Coconut Milk.
