I've been seeing this on the web lately and had to give it a try, I adapted this recipe.
Here's what I did:
Refrigerator Oatmeal : 1 serving adapted from "The Yummy Life"
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
1/3 cup chocolate coconut milk
1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon ground flax seed
Topping: 1 apple banana, sliced
NOTES: I used this brand of "milk", it is really good, or as the label says "so delicious".
Since the milk was already sweetened, I didn't add any honey or any other sweetener to my oatmeal.
I didn't have rolled oats and just used old fashioned oats.
For winter months, warm/hot oatmeal is nice, but for summer this version is good!
I'm making this again using this Almond Coconut milk (which a reader, Marisa, told me was good)...you know it's gonna be just as good!
I'm going to try that...
ReplyDeleteWhere are you buying all these nut milks? I checked the link and like the idea of making these in small mason jars for on-the-run breakfasts or a quick snack (ooooh, like after a brief hike!).
ReplyDeletehope you like it Laura!
ReplyDeleteI'm finding them at Down to Earth, Rowena, a health food store. Hope you like this if you try it :)
Take care you two.
