Extra Yummy Blueberry Overnight Oats

When do you eat your overnight oats? I think most people prep them at night, and eat them for breakfast. I figure they’re called overnight oats because they’re s’posed to be eaten at night so we digest them overnight! Ha!  They’re the perfect bedtime feast (maybe that’s why I struggle to lose weight?)

I’ve been playing with recipes, and find there are a couple secrets to yummy overnight oats. One is whisking together Greek Yoghurt and your favorite milk, another is a dollop of honey, and finally, 1/4-1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Tonight’s oats, whisk together in a medium size bowl:

• 1/2 cup Greek yoghurt
• 1/2 cup your favourite milk
• 1/4 cup skim milk powder
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla
• 1Tblsp honey

Then add:

• 1/2 cup large flake rolled oats
• 1 Tbsp chia seeds
• 1 Tbsp pumpkin seeds
• 1 Tbsp psyllium husk
• 1 Tbsp broken walnuts
• 1 Tbsp golden flaxseed
• 1 cup blueberries (frozen are fine)

Mix all together, cover and place in fridge for a few hours. Yes, the longer you leave it the softer the oats get.

This was yummy to come home to after an energetic evening out at Archer’s Community Hub Freestyle Open Mic. Yes, I got on the mic – inspired by Aviva who raps powerful positivity! Sorry no pic from tonight, but here’s a pic from last week when Marvelous Maisie was on the mic.
