Our February recipe of the month is Overnight Oats.  This recipe makes breakfast time easy and filling. In the evening, you stir together your oats and liquid ingredients, tightly cover the mixture, and leave it in the refrigerator overnight.  In the morning, add your favorite toppings and enjoy a great tasting and filling breakfast.

We have three different types of overnight oats for you to try – pumpkin, peanut butter, and yogurt.  Here is how I like my overnight oats:

• Pumpkin:  the pumpkin overnight oats are my favorite because I love everything pumpkin flavored.  I usually just stir a teaspoon of chia seeds into these oats.
• Peanut butter:  the peanut butter overnight oats fill me up the most because of the added protein and fat from the peanut butter.  I love bananas with peanut butter, so I usually add a sliced banana to these oats.
• Yogurt:  yogurt is a food that I have a hard time eating on its own, so mixing yogurt into oats is a great way for me to get the benefits of yogurt.  I like to add berries and chopped nuts to these oats. 

The best thing about this recipe is that you can make it your own with the liquid ingredients and the toppings.  The link to the recipe is below and it includes all three varieties of overnight oats.

Enjoy!
