Amidst the Life’s busyness we all look for ways to quicken our chores. Be it work, chores or food for instance. Having to cook something that’s requires the minimal work, minimal ingredients but gives you the maximum satisfaction is nothing more than a Blessing! Yes!! It’s so true.
I’ve finally found that secret recipe to cooking for myself and my family a healthy yummy quick and easy make Ahead breakfast meal in absolutely no time, using the simplest of ingredients available at home. The hero being the OATS! Oh yes, Oats have become the new staple food in my home.
Oats have fiber and are healthy and helps to go a long way until lunchtime. It can also be used as a meal replacement. It’s extremely satisfying and you can always make it the way you heart it.
I am sharing 6 different ways I make my simple and quick overnights Oats. The next morning all you need to do is add in a little extra milk, mix it well and your breakfast is ready. You can also blend the oats and make yourself a morning Oatshake which I personally think is amazing. If by any means you find it boring to chew on them just make yourself a delicious smoothie and you’ll love it.
I enjoy having them blended as it ensures the complete intake of the serving prepared.
You may also add a scoop of your protein powder to the oats and boost yourself with some extra protein.
Avoid using sweetener. Using honey, stevia or any natural sweeteners are preferable.
And for the milk, I used Almond milk. You can use any other flavor too or even go with the regular milk. Totally your choice.
