Set yourself up for an energized morning with these insanely easy almond chia overnight oats. They’ve got protein, omega-3s, fiber and just enough natural sweetness to wake your brain up. I recommend doubling the recipe so you’ve got breakfast prepped for two days in a row.
This recipe tastes delicious cold or warmed up and literally takes five minutes to whip up before you pop it in the fridge and let the magic happen. It’s kind of like making breakfast in your sleep. Which is awesome.
Top this goodness with pretty much any fruit - I like bananas and cinnamon or berries - and add some ground flax seeds or walnuts and you’re in business!
