So, as most of you know, 90% of the time I drink my Shakeology for breakfast. It's quick. It's easy. It tastes like a chocolate milkshake. Need I say more?
But lately I have been wanting to save my Shakeology for later in the day, especially if I am going to be busy and want a quick lunch! I needed to try something different for breakfast. My criteria? It needed to be quick, tasty, 21 Day Fix approved, oh-- and it couldn't contain eggs.
That's right, I don't like eggs. Yes, I have tried them cooked all sorts of different ways. I wish I could get over it, because there are so many delicious looking egg recipes, but it is one flavor I just can't get used to!
What I did come up with, that has been a lifesaver for many mornings lately, is this quick and versatile overnight oats recipe.
The basic recipe:
1 Red container~ 3/4 Cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 Purple container~ 1 Cup Frozen Berries
1 Yellow container~ 1/4 Cup for this recipe, container = 1/2 cup steel cut oats (since we are using uncooked oats you will measure out about 1/2 a yellow container to equal the 1 full container of oatmeal, since oatmeal is supposed to be measured cooked)
1) Defrost berries in jar or bowl
2) Stir in oats, yogurt, and any optional add-ins
3) Cover and refrigerate overnight
4) Stir and enjoy!!
Optional Add-Ins
Orange Container ~ 2 Tablespoons:
Raw pumpkin seeds
Raw sunflower seeds
Flaxseed
Unsweetened shredded coconut
Blue Container~ 1/4 Cup:
20 Pistachios
12 Almonds
10 pecan halves
8 Cashews or Walnut Halves
Teaspoons:
2 Tsps Almond or Peanut Butter
Freebies:
Any pure flavor extracts (I.e. Vanilla, almond, peppermint, Carmel)
