    So I've loved overnight oats for some time, but this is the first time that I loved them enough to post about them! My sister in law mentioned using chocolate protein powder, but I guess I never thought about it, since I don't consider chocolate a breakfast food. Here goes the recipe:

    20g Rolled Oats (1/4 Cup)
    1 scoop chocolate protein powder
    1/2 cup skim milk
    1 banana

    Mix the first 3 ingredients really well, the night before you plan on eating these. Slice up the banana and put it on top!

    Giving this a go (without the protein powder as I don't have any) and adding blueberries in the morning!!!! Will let you know how it goes!!!

    Thanks for a great idea! Liking the one with almond milk too might give that a try!!

    Worked out not too badly. I will alter the fluid/oat proportion a bit for me as it turned out wetter than I would have liked but all in all a great breakfast to have and certainly fills me up! I will see how hungry I am by lunchtime and after my yoga class!!

    Thanks for the recipe I'll have to try it.

    My favourite breakfast at present is

    homemade natural yogurt
    sliced banana
    5 marcona almonds
    5 whole cashew nuts

    occasionally add 3 walnuts or half teaspoon of honey

    Delicious and the protein in the nuts keeps my hunger at bay.

    Made one this morning with oats, almond milk, avocado, and blueberries. Milled the oats to a powder beforehand. It was still a little "unsmooth" but I'm fine with the texture...

    Since I have a lactose intolerance, can I substitute the milk with say SILK or something similar?

    edit: I also just read that you can do this with water as well. I'll have to try it out! Thanks for the idea!

    I've used applesauce. It tastes like apple crisp if you add some cinnamon.

    If you cannot eat lactose products, soy, almonds and rice milks are good options.

    They're amazing if you don't mind eating cold oats, and you don't have a lick of time in the morning!

    They're also quite filling!
    I overnite my oats then microwave them to cook them.
    My personal favorite is 50g oats, 20 g sultanas soaked in water overnite, then i add some milk and cook for 10 mins on defrost hile i shower.
    They're supper hot and the sultanas make it sweet.

    I some times add protein, but i don't like the taste of my powder :grumble:

    And coconut milk. ( any milk alternative would work) OJ may be a little odd but apple or berry juice hould work.

    Do you cook the oats or leave them raw, do you refrigerate the mixture.:drinker:

    This sounds like my fave new brekky too! My homemade Bircher muesli, although I use water rather than milk (and i think the actual recipe calls for apple juice)

    Just mix a pre-made, untoasted muesli mix (or oats if you want to add your own nuts/sultanas etc.) with just enough water to absorb into the oats but not make it too soggy! Leave overnight in the fridge. Wake up in the morning to a gorgeous bowl of bircher muesli - add natural yoghurt and fresh fruit or berries

    Enjoy!! :)
