Overnight Oats With Protein Powder
Oatmeal is great because there are so many ways you can change it up, add to it or mix up the flavor depending on the season or what mood you are in. In the summer I make overnight oats when I want something light and fruity. I add extra protein to my oats to make them even more filling and then I can swap my morning protein shake.
Oatmeal is one of the healthiest foods you can eat for breakfast. It’s loaded with nutrients and full of fiber. It can help control your blood sugar and helps keep your cholesterol low.
What Are Overnight Oats?
Overnight oats are a healthy raw breakfast recipe that consists of soaking rolled oats in milk overnight in the fridge. It has a similar texture to oatmeal, except it’s uncooked and preserves all the nutrients and healthy properties of the ingredients as no heat is involved.
