I enjoy regular oatmeal, but sometimes a change from a hot bowl is nice…Overnight oats are a TASTY option. Here’s how it works: you combine dry oats, a liquid, and whatever other fun add-ins you want, refrigerate it over night (or up to 4-5 days) and the next morning you have a cold bowl of soft oats that have absorbed all the delicious flavors. Great, right? Well, it’s even better when they’re apple pie flavored and don’t need any extra sugar to be scrumptious. #winning
