Overnight oats

Start with 1/4 cup oats
1/4 cup steel cut oats
1 package stevia (optional but makes it sweet)
1tsp Chia seeds (optional)
dash of cinnamon(optional)
pinch of Himalayan salt(optional)
*Teaspoon or two of collagen(optional but increases protein and adds all the lovely benefits of collagen.)
*Teaspoon or scoop of protein powder(optional increases protein)
I add a teaspoon cacao or cocoa powder to some of mine and a couple drops of vanilla again optional
I shake the jars up and put some in the cabinet to use later. They are now ready to go for a quick addition of fruit and milk and a very easy breakfast waiting in the morning.
To the jar I will use for breakfast the next day or a snack later in the evening.
I add 1/2 c fruit , 1/2 banana, or 1 cup strawberries
and 1 cup almond milk or 1/2 cup almond milk and 1/2 c water if you are being frugal with your almond milk and have added protein powder and or collagen to the recipe.
Shake it up and store in the fridge for 6 plus hours.
Shake it up again and add to a  pretty bowl , or if eating on the run the wide mouth jars are very accommodating for breakfast on the run. It's easy to get your spoon in the wide mouth jar to get that last bite. Don't forget a Walmart bag or lunch bag to bring your jar home in . I love the lunch bags because I can throw my Ggms jar and any other green friendly container I use while eating on the run right into it , so I can take it home and wash it without looking at a dirty empty jar sitting in.my car cup holder. Yuk! I gave done it too many times! Earthlink in a leftover peanut butter jar is definitely eco-friendly , but finished and sitting in the cup holder of my car... well it just looks gross!
