Need an on-the-go breakfast to match your on-the-go lifestyle? Look no further!
When you have an active on-the-go lifestyle, easy make-ahead meals are essential to success. Overnight oats are one of those staples because of the versatility you can have with them, allowing you to have different tastes every day of the week! Overnight oats are basically oats that have been soaked in a liquid all night long, omitting the need for cooking. Plus, you can make them in a mason jar so you can throw it in your bag to eat after a morning workout, or when you get to work.
The base of overnight oats includes oats, nut butter, milk, and a sweetener like honey or maple syrup. Then you can add all the fixings you want!
