Overnight Oats Recipe

The perfect overnight oats recipe from EatingBirdFood.com.

I cannot wait to try these overnight oats! They look like a perfect summer breakfast! Let me know when you try these! 

Note: you can always sub almond milk and almond milk yogurt if you need it to be dairy free. Also, gluten-free rolled oats are fantastic in overnight oats!

Oats are loaded with vitamins and minerals like iron, magnesium, folate, calcium, and B vitamins. They are also high in fiber (your gut thanks you!), and a powerful antioxidant that can help lower blood sugar and cholesterol. One of my favorite benefits of oats is that they increase GOOD BACTERIA in the gut, pushing out bad bacteria! WOOHOO!

This recipe includes chia seeds which are one of my favorite ingredients EVER. Chia seeds are packed with protein, Omega 3s, fiber, iron, calcium, B vitamins. They can protect against bone disease, cancer, and heart disease.

If you've never tried overnight oats, this would be a great recipe to start with. The texture may get you in the beginning, but honestly, the health benefits should give you a boost to push on. Adding some walnuts, almonds, or granola can give an added crunch and increase in Omega 3s.

Enjoy!
