Breakfast is the best, in my opinion. I like to start my day at a leisurely pace, sitting down to have breakfast and a cup of coffee and catch up on news and personal emails before I start getting ready to leave for the day. The thing is, sometimes I choose extra sleep while preparing breakfast. On those mornings, I try not to skip breakfast entirely. Instead, I always have some sort of healthy overnight oats concoction in my fridge. (This usually happens a few times a week, so the oats never go to waste).
The best thing about overnight oats is that, like hot oats, they’re pretty much a blank canvas for all the healthy – or not-so-healthy, if you’re in the mood – ingredients. that you want to add. I like to make my base with oats, milk (almond or regular, depending on what I have on hand), and either Greek yogurt Or white cheese, both of which add tons of protein and help thicken the oats. Sometimes I just make a simple base and add toppings in the morning. Other times I like to add the mix-ins before letting the oats sit overnight, so the flavors can meld and the dried fruit has a chance to bulk up.
