Overnight Oats

When I'm not eating Oat Bran Wafflins for breakfast, I'm eating oatmeal in some form.  I'm trying to stay away from cereal because my cereal portions are ridiculously out of control.  I can eat an entire box in two days!  It started when I was pregnant, and I've had a difficult time kicking the habit.  T only eats Grape Nuts, but I'm an equal opportunity cereal consumer.  I like it dry, on yogurt, with milk, between meals, for dinner, etc.  Get in my belly!  Since Lil'T started eating oatmeal and fruit nearly every morning, I thought I would try to do the same.  Lately, I make plain overnight oats to doctor up in the morning. 

Overnight Oats (2 servings)

1 TBL chia seed
2 TBL oat bran
3 TBL oats
3/4 cup non-dairy milk

Combine and refrigerate overnight. 

In the morning you have...





Now, I usually heat the overnight oats for 90 seconds then top:
Banana, raw oats, 1 tsp PB



Stir and enjoy!




So, not the most attractive breakfast, but satisfying.
