Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a bowl or container with a lid, mix 2/3 cup of multi-grain oatmeal with 1 tbsp of flaxseed.
- Stir in 1 tsp of stevia leaf sweetener to the oatmeal and flaxseed mix.
- Pour 1/2 cup of milk (1% fat) into the mixture, making sure that all dry ingredients are well moistened.
- Using a spoon, stir the mixture until the stevia and milk are fully incorporated with the oatmeal and flaxseed.
- Cover the bowl or container with its lid (or use plastic wrap if you don’t have a lid).
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator and let it chill overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to absorb the liquid and soften.
- In the morning, or when ready to eat, give the oatmeal a good stir.
- You can enjoy it as is, or add your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or a dollop of yogurt, if desired.
Tips:
- For a creamier texture, consider soaking the oatmeal overnight in the milk.
- Feel free to add your favorite fruits, nuts, or seeds to enhance the flavor and nutritional value.
- If you prefer a sweeter taste, adjust the amount of stevia leaf sweetener to your liking.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute the milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any other plant-based alternative.
- To boost protein content, you can mix in a scoop of protein powder or Greek yogurt.
