Overnight oatmeal

Update: I know the color is not appetising,  that's because of the turmeric I add for inflamatory purpose, you don't have to do that.  It's delicious though and very convenient on the boat.



 

They are great for busy mornings.  I think I'm going to make plenty of them when I go back to work.  I know it's going to be hard to get reaccustomed to a working schedule.

Overnight oatmeal

Ingredients 

1/4 cup                                                            Oatmeal
1/4 cup                                                            Walnuts
1/4 cup                                                            Raisins
1/4 cup                                                            Vanilla Greek yogurt (optional)
1/2 cup                                                            Milk of choice 
1 teaspoon                                                     Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon                                                 Turmeric (optional)

Directions 

Put all the ingredients in a jar, shake and refrigerate.   It's ready to eat the following morning.  It's good for as long as the expiration date of the yogurt.

Sometimes I use plain yogurt and add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup as a sweetener. 

My husband is a routine guy and I don't dare to change it, since he likes it so much, but you could certainly use another kind of nuts and berries or peaches.   In that case I would put more of the fruits, probably 1/2 cup.

I added blueberries this morning.




Make it à la you and bon appétit!
