Start the new year off right with making healthy, no cook ,quick overnight oats in a jar for breakfast instead of stopping at the fast food drive thru for breakfast. Overnight oats are truly the most wholesome quick meal that takes less than 5 minutes to make.
Short on time? Make some overnight oats. Want something beneficial and sweet? Make some overnight oats.
Working 12 hours shifts as a registered nurse decreases the amount of time I have to make a meal, so overnight oats has been a lifesaver. Whenever I am short on time, which is most days, I will quickly make a bowl of overnight oats with various different toppings and additions and leave it in the fridge overnight to have ready for the next day. It’s so convenient and it’s just an easy grab and go! It has been a game changer and I have felt a difference in my health.
