    if i do overnight oatmeal (which i tried for the first time last night) i use almond milk (water if i'm cooking them in the morning)...i haven't even thought about Greek yogurt. There was enough liquid in the yogurt for the oats?

    I've always seen overnight oats online but never decided to go for them (even though I love oatmeal...). But...I got bored last night and decided to mix some up. After the first batch looked so good, I made two more! LOL I get excited..

    Anyway! They were outrageously delicious and I can't believe I didn't make these sooner :noway: Anyone mind sharing some recipes? I know there are a million on the internet, but what is your favorite combo?

    I made these last night:

    Blueberry Maple

    1/2 cup Oats
    1/2 cup FF Plain Greek Yogurt
    2/3 cup GNC Total Lean Vanilla Shake
    2/3 cup blueberries
    1/4 cup SF syrup

    Banana Caramel

    1/3 cup Oats
    1/4 cup Light & Fit Caramel Delight
    1/3 cup Unswt Coconut Milk
    2 tbsp SF syrup
    1 small banana, sliced
    Few drops of vanilla extract
    Cinnamon

    Pina Colada (this one was my favorite!)

    1/2 cup Oats
    1/2 cup FF Plain Greek Yogurt
    1/2 cup Unswt Coconut Milk
    1/2 tsp coconut extract
    1 cup Pineapple, chopped
    1 packet Truvia


    I had a bite of all three this morning...couldn't resist...and they were all so tasty and easy! Mmmm this may be my next addiction...

    I saw the skinnytaste recipe on Monday and had to try it out. It's really good, and I've been eating it all week. I'll have to try the pina colada recipe. That looks really good!

    My variation:
    1/4 cup quick oats
    1/2 cup almond milks
    1/2 tbsp chia seeds
    1/4 chopped banana
    1/8 cup nuts (pecans or walnuts)
    1/8 cup dates

    Overnight oatmeal is the new breakfast of champions.

    I do mine with a 1/2 chopped banana, 1 cup light soy milk, 1/3 cup water, 1/2t tsp stevia and a tsp of instant coffee- it's AMAZING!

    Great thread! I'm going to try it this week. Does anyone know how long these will last in the fridge? I like to make things in advance so its ready, so it would be awesome if I could make 3-4 days worth at a time.

    When you participate in a conversation, you can find it easier under "my topics" instead of searching through all the posts... by saying "bump" you've bumped it to "my topics" for later perusal
