Hey!

I'm looking for tasty recipes for overnight oatmeal. Anyone have any they really like? If so, can you tell me what you add because I'm looking to add that into my meal plan for breakfast. Thank you in advance!

    I made my own. I need something that will support my early morning work out but go down in no time. I've fine-tuned what gives me the most energy and keeps me the most full with the fewest calories. I make a whole work week's worth at once.

    1/3 C oats
    1 serving protein powder
    2 T pB2
    1 T cocoa powder
    1 t cinnamon
    water

    Sometimes I'll swap out the PB2 and/or cocoa with fruit and/or yogurt.

    Oatmeal, kefir, whatever you want. Leave it out overnight. The kefir makes such an improvement as to change your life.

    Mine is pretty unimpressive, but I like it, I eat it daily with a bunch of berries. It's a modified recipe from Eat Lift Play Repeat. The recipe lists Vanilla flavor, but the picture is of one made with the chocolate flavor.

    To put a spin on this you can prepare as normal and then blend into a smoothie in the morning with a little extra almond milk and it's really tasty to drink on the go.

    I just bought some Bob's Red Mill Fruit and Seed Muesli Cereal. I'm going to make it into overnight Swiss Muesli using Greek yogurt this week.

    Do you guys eat overnight oatmeal cold the next morning? I often mix my ingredients in the evening, so that in the morning I just have to put the bowl in the microwave, so I guess they are overnight oats, but I always eat my oatmeal warm.

    I normally just have pretty basic overnight oats;
    Oats
    Cashew Milk
    Frozen Berries

    All that mixed together for overnight and then I add Banana and/or Apple in the morning.

    Sometimes if I don't have any berries I mix some cinnamon in, and that goes really well with apple!

    I've tried making overnight oats but mine tasted super pasty and chalky. I used quick oats. Any suggestions as to what I could do better? I just layered fruit,yogurt and quick oats

    I use the same basic recipe...1/2 cup steel cut oats and 1/2 cup milk (whatever kind you like). Then I add different things for different flavors......(1) 1/2 chopped apple, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp brown sugar.........(2)1/2 chopped peach, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp brown sugar.........(3) 1/4 cup fresh blueberries or raspberries, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract, 2 tsp brown sugar...............(4) 2 Tb canned pumpkin, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 tsp nutmeg, pumpkin seeds (optional)...................(5) 2 Tbs dried cranberries, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1 Tbs chopped nuts, 2 tsp brown sugar...................(6) 2 Tbs shredded coconut, 1 Tbs slivered almonds, 1/4 tsp vanilla extract. Mix and match until you get flavor combos that you like. I eat mine cold....and I only use steel cut oats because I like the crunchy, chewy texture they give.
