| Strawberrry, blueberry banana with flax seed |
But I gave it a shot for a quick on the go breakfast situation. So glad I did, its delicious, healthy and easy to grab and head out on the days you might be running late.
Other really tasty mixes: Blueberry banana-topped with chopped walnuts in the morning; Peach blackberry; Cherry-add a bit of vanilla extract in with this one!
What you need::
- 1/2C dry oatmeal- best to not use the instant kind
- 1/4 C yogurt- I've been using low fat vanilla
- 1/3 C milk - I ususally go with vanilla soy or almond
- 1 Tbsp honey
- Dash of Cinnamon
- 1 and a half Tbsp ground flax seed or chia seeds**- Optional but great way to add in a bit more healthy stuff; definitely play around with your milk amounts when adding these, they can make things a little too dry
- Fruit! - any combo you like. I've had some great turnouts with blueberry and strawberry, banana is also great to add!
What you do::
- Put all ingredients, yes the fruit too, in a jar or tupperware(I use the mason jars for convenience-easy to eat out of while walking)
- Seal/Lid
- Shake or stir to mix it all up
- Pop it in the fridge overnight
- In the morning grab it and eat it or like me let it warm up a bit on the counter or if i'm in a hurry pop in the microwave for about 10 seconds just to knock out some of the chill.
- Enjoy!
