Quick & Easy Overnight Oats Recipe for Busy Mornings
When your mornings are busy, making a healthy, hearty breakfast that's packed with nutrition isn't always the easiest.
31 million Americans skip breakfast daily with their top reasons being: lack of time time and were too busy (NPD Survey).
Overnight oats are an easy way to have that homemade touch while being able to take it on-the-go. I love that overnight oat recipes are completely customizable so you never get bored with your breakfast! You can top each mason jar with fruit, nuts, seeds, Homestyle Granola clusters, or whatever inspires you! And hey, if you're too busy to make this the night before, just grab a Breakfast Cookie on your way out the door.
