Has anyone else noticed that the overnight oat breakfast is a HUGE craze! Have any of you tried them?
I thought I would give it a shot and was PLEASANTLY surprised at how yummy they tasted. I am a big fan of eating my breakfasts. I feel it ramps up my metabolism :-)
There are so many variations on making overnight or refrigerator oats but here are some of my favorites. Sometimes I'll make a giant batch and put them in individual serving containers. It's so nice to just pull one out the evening before for when you need a healthy breakfast FAST!
