Overnight Oats In A Jar

Overnight Oats In A Jar

I call this Overnight Oats In A Jar, but in actuality you can make this stuff in anything. I use a plastic container I got from the deli because it's the right size and it comes with a lid. Plus, the ingredients that I use are just my preference....you can use pretty much anything you like.

The usual suspects....

1/2 cup 5 minute oats
1/2 cup Chobani vanilla yogurt (or you could use plain if you like)
1/2 cup Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla milk
Dash or so of cinnamon
1-2 Splenda packets (to taste)
1-2 Tbsp. of peanut butter
1 banana

The night before I want to eat this, I mix together the oats, Chobani yogurt, Almond Breeze and cinnamon in a container with a lid. I only add the Splenda if I use plain yogurt because I think the vanilla yogurt is sweet enough. Let it sit in the fridge overnight.

In the morning I break up the banana and stir it into the oat mixture. Then I plop the peanut butter on top. I don't mix it in because I like to scoop a little off with each bite. But feel free to do as you like. :)

Another method I do is when I have a peanut butter jar that is just about at the 'throw out' stage...I make it in the pb jar and just omit adding any extra peanut butter at the end. Either way is totally awesome and very addicting. I hope you enjoy it. 

This is what it looks like when I put it in a bowl not in a jar. (obviously)


If you have a different way of  doing this or other suggestions to what to add...let me know. I'd love to hear from you!
