I have eaten the same breakfast for about two months and absolutely love it. I struggle with getting excited about breakfast because I don't eat many eggs. I get into a routine where I eat something I love for a while and then switch it up when I am ready. Overnight oats are my go-to because they are quick, easy, and provide many good things to break my fast.
I found this make-at-home recipe, which I have yet to try, but I need to do so. I found ready-made overnight oats at Trader Joe's and have been grabbing them regularly. They have two varieties, and I like the almond butter chia option. With 12g of protein and 8 g of fiber, I think it is a perfect option for a balanced breakfast. I add a few ingredients to the top and enjoy every single bite.
Spread the overnight oats in the bottom of a small bowl. I add berries to the top, usually blueberries, but today I had blackberries. I found a great granola to add and could nibble on this bag all day long if I let myself. I was worried about grainless granola, but it is better than the original. The granola adds in even more protein and fiber ... and I use about 1/2 a serving. I finish it off with organic coconut chips (long flakes) and a T of organic blue agave.
If you don't have a Trader Joe's near you I would recommend the make-at-home version and add in what you love. It is so easy to put together and absolutely delish.
Happy Monday!
