Easy Overnight Oatmeal

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup skim milk or vanilla almond milk
  • 1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup any fruit

Preparation

Step 1

In a jar or another container with a lid, whisk together milk, yogurt, honey, and vanilla. Stir in oats. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 6 hours.
In the morning, stir in your favorite fruit and enjoy.

Ingredient Variations and Substitutions
I like to keep my overnight oatmeal simple with a little honey and vanilla, but feel free to add any spices or flavors you can think of. Cinnamon, fruit, nuts, and seeds are all great ways to spice this breakfast up!

For a diabetes-friendly meal, omit the honey and use one packet of stevia instead.

To make this gluten-free, be sure to use certified gluten-free oats.

Cooking and Serving Tips:
To serve hot, heat in the microwave 60 to 90 seconds, stirring halfway through.

You can make two or three jars at once so that you have a few days’ worth of breakfast available.
