What are Overnight Oats?

Overnight oats are pretty much what they sound like. You prepare them the night before and let them sit overnight. In the morning, you just heat them up and you have a perfect breakfast! The oats will soak up all the liquid and be ready in the morning for consumption. I love to meal prep and this is a great breakfast meal prep idea. This recipe is great if you need energy in the morning. Chia seeds are rich in fiber, omega-3 fats, protein, vitamins and minerals. Yes, healthy can be tasty, too!
