My did this bowl of overnight oats work hard for me last night!
I woke up to this perfectly doughy glop of delicious –
1/3 cup oats, 1/3 cup vanilla soy milk, 1 container honey flavored Oikos, minus the honey on the bottom, pinch of kosher salt.
I got out the toppings and couldn’t wait to dig in!
- ~5 grapes
- Half banana
- Spoonful Fortnum and Mason raspberry preserves
- ~1 heaping tbsp walnuts, toasted to a buttery perfection in the microwave 1 min on high
- The rest of the bag of Nature’s Path Granola (~1/4 heaping cup?)
I have died and gone to texture heaven!
+ Tazo Refresh tea. I’m holding off on caffeine because I’m meeting Victoria at a coffee shop to study and am hoping for a fun flavored cappuccino there! I can’t do double caffeine 🙂

Emily, homecookedem says
I love overnight oats, but for some reason they are not nearly as filling as a bowl of classic warm oats! Even with nut butter on top!! Wonder why that is…
Peanut Butter bliss says

Heather says
I love overnight oats – I was just thinking of having them for breakfast tomorrow – they remind me so much of summer. I love the color of your bowl – is that also a part of the mixing bowl set?
Sarah says
Sorry to hear about soccer! 🙁
I still haven’t tried overnight oats yet either. But I have to wait until I get real oats again, I’m afraid to try it with the 5 grain cereal I have right now 😉
Courtney says
You need a wall to kick the soccer ball against! :>
That’s a bummer when something gets cancelled you really want to do.
I’m taking a nutrition seminar tonight at my trainer’s studio…I really hope it doesn’t get cancelled because I’m interested to hear from a RD about some tips for busy people!

Lynn @ The Actors Diet says
oooh i’m about to dig into my overnight oats too – well, not oats, because it’s made with brown rice flakes. i call it “breakfast pudding” b/c it tastes like rice pudding.
Beth @ DiningAndDishing says
Overnight oats are something I have yet to master the way you have. The texture looks fantastic!!

I LOVE overnight oats!! I don’t know what it is about the texture but it’s just the best and so easy and convenient. I made overnight oats in my hotel room every night on vacation!
Hallie (Healthy Twists) says
That article about the life of a food blogger was cool. You’re right about food being more than something you enjoy…it’s your job! I’m SO impressed at people who are able to turn passions into real careers…good for you 🙂

Oh yum. I am so excited for my overnight oats tomorrow!!

Julie @savvyeats says
I love bumping up the texture of my oats! I always add nuts or pepitas or granola or something crunchy, or else I don’t enjoy them much!
Kate says
Can’t believe how doughy and gorgeous your overnight oats look. You are a master.
Lizzy says
i LOVEEEE when a bowl of eats has many many textures. it makes for a party in my mouth! 🙂
Elle says
Overnight oats! What a great idea! 🙂
Kath says
Abby,
Soak in the fridge!! You don’t want milk/yogurt sitting out all night 🙂
Heather,
Yep!

Cynthia (It All Changes) says
That’s why I love overnight oats. So quick to grab and go in the morning. My problem is to remember to make them the night before.
Does it work to make several batches ahead of time and eat them throughout the week?
Kath says
Cynthia,
I haven’t ever done that, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.

Caroline says
Haha! Honey yogurt without the honey…i find they often put too much of that stuff in anyway, so I totally understand your taking it out. I just want to thank you Kath for giving me so many exciting breakfast ideas. Now I look forward to waking up and having a delicious KERF-inspired bowl or oats or yogurt every morning
