A Healthy No Brainer Breakfast…Overnight Oatmeal!!!

Overnight Oatmeal
 
Cooking Time: 10 Minutes; Yields 1 Person

 

Ingredients 
Banana Blueberry Oatmeal
1/2 c. rolled oats
1/3 c. organic vanilla yogurt
2/3 c. low fat milk
1 T chia seeds
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1-2 T honey
1/4 c. fresh blueberries
1/2 banana; diced
Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
1/2 c. rolled oats
1/3 c. organic vanilla yogurt
2/3 c. low fat milk
1 T chia seeds
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1-2 T maple syrup
1/2 c. pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp clove

Cooking Instructions
Banana Blueberry Oatmeal
1.  I’m sure you have noticed how some of my ingredients are bold and some aren’t.  The reason behind my bold ingredients are…that’s the base to all overnight oats and the rest of the ingredients are what you make it.  Anything goes as long as you start with the first 6 ingredients.

2.  Lets start out with grabbing a small mixing bowl.  

3.  Place all your ingredients into the bowl; rolled oats, vanilla yogurt, milk, chia seed, vanilla extract, salt, honey, blueberries, and banana.  Give everything a big stir until it has combined thoroughly. 
***TIP: Chia seeds are one of the most nutritious foods on the planet.  They are loaded with fiber, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and various micronutrients.  So don’t skip out on them!!
 

4.  Find an airtight container to store your oatmeal in overnight.  I personally like the ziplock screw on tops or a small mason jars; but anything that seals should work just fine.


5. Place them in the refrigerator overnight and when you wake up you have breakfast to go.
***TIP: In the morning I like to add a couple extra fresh blueberries, some chopped walnuts, and maybe a little extra honey for sweetness.

6.  Enjoy!!!

Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal 
1.  Again, lets grab a small mixing bowl.

2.  Place all your ingredients into the bowl; rolled oats, vanilla yogurt, milk, chia seed, vanilla extract, salt, maple syrup, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove.  Give everything a good mix and place into your airtight container. 


3.  Again, place your oatmeal into the refrigerator overnight and voila you have another healthy breakfast.
***TIP:  In the morning I made sure to add a little extra maple syrup or brown sugar to this because it needed sweetening. 

4.  Enjoy!!!

Other Oatmeal Ideas

1.  Some other kinds of oatmeal I like to make are….Strawberry and Banana, Banana Chocolate Chip, and Pina Colada. 

2.  Strawberry and Banana: start out with your 6 main ingredients.  Add 1-2 T honey, 1/4 cup strawberries, and 1/2 of a banana. 

3.  Banana Chocolate Chip: start out with your 6 main ingredients.  Add 1-2 T honey, 1/2 of a banana, and 2 T chocolate chips.

4.  Pina Colada: start with your 6 main ingredients.  Add 1-2 T honey, 1/3 c. fresh or canned pineapple, 1/2 of a banana, and 2 T unsweetened coconut flake.
