Overnight Oats with Chia
This is one of my favourite breakies to take with me and enjoy on the go.
It is important to make this the night before to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak into the coconut yogurt and almond milk. This also gives the perfect yummy texture :)
Finding the time to prepare your meals in advanced can help you to stay on track with your health goals and it also saves you LOADS of money. This overnight oats took me around 5 minutes to whip up. Sometimes I make a larger batch which will last me a few days, I just divide it into separate containers for each morning.
To give you an idea of the cost I have broken this down for you. Find this after the recipe :)
Ingredients
1/2 oats
1 x banana
Large table spoon chia seeds
1/2 cup almond or coconut milk
large table spoon of coconut yoghurt
Frozen berries (I use blueberries and raspberries)
Method:
Mix all ingredients in a container or jar, leaving the frozen berries for the next day
Place in fridge and leave over night
The day you are going to eat it add the berries on top or mix them through, this also helps to keep it cold until you eat it :)
Enjoy
