One of the easiest breakfasts on the go or to make ahead:

OVERNIGHT OATS JARS

And they don’t even have to be oats….or overnight.

The term ‘overnight’ oats was coined over making an instant form of oatmeal by simply adding some water or non-dairy milk to it with various fruits, nuts, or seeds and then bam it’s ready for you in the morning for breakfast or to take for lunch!

If you are grain free or just out of oats, you can make these yummy jars with either raw milled chia or flax seeds. I love both and tend to lean more into just fruits these days (along with some greens powder my go-to is spirulina)!

Some of these I used oatmeal, some are buckwheat flakes, and some are just chia seeds Mix and match your favorites!

  • Add oats to bottom of the jar

  • Cover with non-dairy milk

  • Layer in fruits (fresh or frozen) * Add dried fruit like dates , figs or apricots (just make sure there are no added ingredients like sugar or sulfites)

  • Nuts/seeds

Repeat!

These recipes shown are:

  • Oranges, buckwheat flakes, almond milk, cacao powder, dates, chia and pumpkin seeds

  • Oats, mango, dates, chia, blueberry and almond milk

  • Buckwheat flakes, apples, pears, almond milk, dates, walnuts and cinnamon

    See how easy?

    What’s your favorite fruit, seed or nut to add?
