I'm in love with OO's!!

What are OO's? Only one of the best breakfast creations ever!! For those who haven't heard of Overnight Oats - let me explain.

You take 1/2 cup of rolled oats (I use Quaker) and combine in a bowl with 1/2 of the liquid of your choice - you can use almond milk, coconut milk, yogurt (any flavor), regular milk, or a combination of any of the above. (I've been a fan of 1/4 cup Stonyfield organic skim milk and 1/4 cup Stonyfield fat free vanilla yogurt)

You simply stir to combine, and cover. Put it in the fridge before bed time, and wake up to a lovely stick-to-your-ribs breakfast. The best part is all the yummy toppings you add in the AM! I've been sprinkling on a little flaxseed meal, cinnamon and topping the whole thing off with a tablespoon of almond butter and 1/2 mashed banana. YUM!!
This breakfast tastes delicious, has lots of heart healthy fiber and will keep you satisfied till lunch!
Have you ever made overnight oats? What’s your favorite combination?
