Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a jar or bowl, add 1/4 oz (7g) of chia seeds and 1/4 cup (20g) of multi-grain oatmeal.
- Thinly slice 1/4 banana (30g) and add it to the jar.
- Dice 1/2 cup (80g) strawberries and add them to the mixture.
- Pour 1/2 cup (120g) of almond milk over the oats, chia seeds, and fruits.
- Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure all the ingredients are well combined. Make sure the chia seeds are evenly distributed to prevent clumping.
- Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator.
- Let it sit overnight (or for at least 4-6 hours) to allow the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
- In the morning, chop 1/4 oz (7g) of pecans and sprinkle them on top just before serving to maintain their crunchiness.
- Give the overnight oats a good stir, and enjoy a delicious and nutritious breakfast!
Tips:
- For a creamier texture, you can mix the almond milk with a dollop of Greek yogurt before adding it to the oats.
- Feel free to add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if you prefer it sweeter.
- Consider using fresh strawberries for the best flavor, but frozen strawberries can be a good alternative when they're out of season.
- If you like a crunchier texture, add half of the pecans just before serving.
- You can double or triple the recipe to prepare multiple servings at once, making breakfast for the next few days even easier.
