OVERNIGHT OATS (2 RECIPES)

I’m such a sucker for time hacks. I’m all about efficiency and overnight oats definitely gives me that validation feeling. I love that I can plan what I eat for breakfast the day before. This saves me a lot of time in the mornings because half the battle is just deciding what to eat.

I’m going to show you two recipes you can use the next time you want to make your breakfast ahead of time. The first is mocha oats. For the ultimate coffee lovers you get your coffee fix plus breakfast, two birds one stone, or however that saying goes.

The second recipe is banana peanut butter oats. Banana is my favorite topping so I’m pretty partial to this one. It’s not overly sweet and it’s super filling which is exactly what I’m looking for with breakfast.

The best part is that these recipes are totally customizable. If you’re looking for healthy options, throw in some healthy ingredients. If you’re looking for the best tasting, add tastier ingredients. The world is your oyster 🙂 and life is too short for boring and mediocre breakfast.
