Overnight oats are such a great grab-and-go breakfast! Simply prepare them at night before you go to bed and voila they are ready to eat in the morning! I was getting a little sick of plain old oats so I thought I would kick it up a notch! I added peanut butter to the almond milk before I poured it on the oats and topped it with fresh strawberries. The protein from the nut butter and the fiber from the oats will keep you fueled all morning long!
