Good morning everyone! Now that the last major storm of Winter (fingers crossed) is over in NYC, I’m feeling super excited for Spring and the weather warming up – even if it does include a good amount of rain and worms coming out of the ground. Mornings for me just FEEL so much better waking up to hints of the sun’s rays beginning to light up the sky as opposed to dreary gray hues or darkness. Anyway, feeling a tad bit of sweet tooth last night, I put together this chocolate flavored overnight oats mix into the fridge for breakfast this morning. As far as toppings go, your pantry is your oyster 😛
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons chocolate powder
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup milk (can substitute milk alternatives such as soy, almond, etc.)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Mix all of the ingredients thoroughly together in a bowl and let sit covered in a refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. When ready to eat, feel free to add any extra toppings! I topped mine off with some coined bananas and raw almonds.
