If you have never tried overnight oats before you have to try it!  It tastes much different than the traditional hot porridge and can be prepared in only a few minutes.  This is a breakfast dish, but I have it all the time as a lazy lunch or as a snack.  No matter what time of day it is still healthy, delicious, and nutritious!  If you have never made home made almond milk before this is a great opportunity to give it a shot, your taste buds will thank you.  I always buy my medjool dates with the pits still inside, the texture and flavor is better.  Just be sure to break them open and remove the pitts before eating.  I didn't put a specific amount of fruit below because that is a matter of taste.  For me, I like to add enough fruit so that I can have some in every bite.

Ingredients

• 1 cup “old-fashioned” or rolled dried oats
• 1 and ½ cups almond milk
• A pinch of vanilla powder (optional)

Toppings

• Chopped strawberries
• Chopped medjool dates
• Blueberries
• 1-2 Tb peanut butter

Directions

1. Add dried oats and almond milk to a jar or bowl with a lid, place in refrigerator for 4-12 hours.
2. After soaking, add toppings.
3. That's it! Enjoy.

Note:  Try this out with other fresh and dried fruits such as bananas and raisins.  One of my favorite combinations is mango and medjool dates with peanut butter.
