Overnight oats are my addiction. I seriously can not get enough this breakfast dish. I prep it every night so I can have a delicious meal to start my day right! This is my go-to recipe. It's so easy.

I usually have everything on hand. I always buy enough bananas when I do my grocery shopping so that I can enjoy one a day!

I have heard so many rumours about bananas. Everything from "it is the worst fruit to eat when you are trying to lose weight" or "if you eat more then one a day you will get a potassium overdose." But all I can say is FALSE. I love bananas and have always eaten them, even during my weight loss journey. 

In this recipe, I did sprinkle some dried coconut and cinnamon on top. You can experiment with any toppings you love. I also put chia seeds in my overnight oats. Chia seeds are a must. They are a superfood...they are full of healthy omegas, fibre and have protein in them (which is a plus for us vegans). 

Overnight Oats Make a Quick & Healthy Breakfast

Oats are an amazing breakfast option for many reasons. They have so many health bonuses!

If you're not a fan of oatmeal in the morning, I can understand. I am not a fan of hot oatmeal in the morning either, but overnight oats are a meal I enjoy. It's also fun to make. I know, you're probably thinking I must have a seriously boring life right? But I am not joking! It's fun to be creative and try different ingredients in your overnight oats. Give it a try and you'll understand me better 🙂
