PROTEIN PACKED OVER NIGHT OATS
Overnight oats are an easy snack or on the go breakfast for those who are trying to fit in that 6AM class, get their kids off to school, walk the dog, and get the show on the road all before 8AM.
It can also be enjoyed as an afternoon pick me up for some added energy on a busy day or as a muscle building snack post workout.
It’s super easy to make and meal prep friendly, so there’s no excuses to not have some of these on hand throughout the week.
You can flavour them however you prefer with different fruits and nuts.
You can manipulate the macronutrients like carbohydrates and protein depending on your goals. If you’re trying to gain weight stick to peanut butter and banana. Or if you’re trying to cut back choose berries and skip the nut butters.
