{Apple and Granola Overnight Oats}

As you all may know...I have switched over from my beloved steel cut oatmeal to overnight oats. I am a huge believer in the power of oats. I love waking up and eating some form of oatmeal. I can pretty much find a way to sneak oats into my day rather it be a hot bowl of steamy oats, cold and creamy overnight oats or sweet oat bread with some nut butter. My cholesterol was genetically high when I was younger and now I have completely turned that around just by following a healthy clean lifestyle with lots of oats in the mix!

My go-to overnight oats always include almond milk and chia seeds. It is pretty much a chia pudding with some oats and fruit. I love this combo! I love yogurt but have never loved yogurt in my overnight oats. I don't know why. I just love the chia seed/oat combo.

I decided to switch up my usual and do more of an apple pie inspired overnight oat! Man...are these good!! I highly...I mean highly recommend that you try these! Most people are a little afraid of the whole cold oatmeal idea but after trying it....I feel sure you will be hooked!

{PB & J Overnight Oats}

I LOVE overnight oats! There is nothing better than waking up in the morning and your breakfast being ready for you!! I love putting chia seeds in my overnight oats. Great way to bump up the nutrition and the taste!

 The other night I was trying to mix up my favorite overnight oats and realized that I was out of bananas! WHAT??? So instead of going with my usual...I decided to switch things up a little. Let me just say...they were fabulous! Oh and what a great way to eat that last bit of peanut butter out of the jar!

PB & J Overnight Oats

• 1 cup milk (I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk)
• 1 tbsp. all natural chunky peanut butter
• 2 tbsp. chia seeds
• 5 drops Vanilla Creme Stevia Drops
• 1/2 cup strawberries (diced)

Combine all ingredients except strawberries in mason jar or container with lid. Stir until well combined. Refrigerate overnight. Top with diced strawberries.

Enjoy!
