Hey there! Whenever someone asks for a quick and healthy breakfast idea, I always recommend overnight oats. They’re a lifesaver for busy mornings – you can prep them in individual jars ahead of time and grab them on the go. Plus, they’re packed with good stuff like oats, chia seeds, and yogurt (optional), and keep you feeling satisfied until lunchtime. But the best part? They’re endlessly customizable!

Instructions

  1. Mix oats, chia seeds, maple syrup, salt, and milk in a jar.
  2. Stir well, then refrigerate overnight.
