New year, back to the basics!
If you’re easing your way back on track, breakfast is a great place to start and it doesn’t have to be complicated.
One of my go-to breakfast (hot or cold!) right now is overnight oats. They’re simple, nourishing, and endlessly customizable.
Base recipe:
🥛 3/4 cup of your favorite protein shake
(or sub your favorite milk + ½ scoop protein powder)
🌾 1/2 cup oats
🌱 2.5 tsp chia seeds
🍯 1 tsp monk fruit, stevia, or sweetener of choice
You can add toppings while you prep them, or do what I love to do - leave them as a blank canvas and decide each morning. Vanilla extract, a dash of cinnamon, apples or other fruit, a little brown sugar (or substitute)… whatever sounds good that day.
Eat them cold for grab-and-go mornings, or heat them up for a cozy, warm breakfast.
They’re packed with protein, carbs (hello fiber!), and healthy fats - setting the tone for steady energy all day long.
Pro tip: I like to pair mine with chicken sausage to bump the protein up!
Simple. Satisfying. Sustainable.
