Nutritious Overnight Oats Every Morning

I came late to the overnight oats game, but I still wanted to play and decided it was time for me to make them. These nutritious overnight oats are the best to have prepared in your refrigerator for those busy mornings when you don’t have a spare second. So, grab your cute mini mason jar and head out the door knowing you have something very tasty and healthy for breakfast! Also, they will sufficiently keep you full until lunch time!

You can enjoy the oats cold or hot, dependent on your food mood. I prefer microwaving them when I get to the office rather then having them cold, but either option works. Once microwaved, the mouthwatering banana bread smell wafts through the air making any morning slightly more delicious and brighter!
