Lazy Girl's Breakfast


I have seen a lot of different recipes on Pinterest describing these overnight oats (overnight oatmeal, oatmeal in a jar, summer porridge, overnight oats in a jar, refrigerator oatmeal call it what you want) and was finally inspired to give it a try.  The night before I mixed the ingredients together in a jar, popped it in the fridge and the next morning after the gym breakfast was ready. It was delightful! Give it a try, it is as easy as pouring a bowl of cereal, but so much more interesting and delicious!

Mango-Raspberry Oats in a Jar

1/4 c. uncooked old rolled oats (I use Bob's Red Mill Organic Rolled Oats)
1/3 c. Almond Milk
1/4 c Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Chia Seeds
1 tsp Ground Flax Seed (I used Spectrum Flax Seed with Berries)
1/2 tsp Vanilla

1/2 c. Diced Mango
1/4 c. Raspberries

-In a jar combine the oatmeal, almond milk, greek yogurt, chia, flax and vanilla. Mix thoroughly. Place lid on jar, and put in the fridge overnight.

-The next morning, add fresh fruit on top
