Overnight Oats

Hello guys, how is it going? Lately I've been loving foods in season, right now persimmons and pomegranates are in the groceries, so I've been eating them a lot. I use persimmons as jam, because the texture is similar and also because they are 100% natural :). Pomegranates are not my favourite, not because of their flavour but because of the time you spend getting the seed out of the fruit, so I don't use them that much. When I made this recipes, figs were also in season unfortunately these fruits are expensive in comparison to apples and bananas, so I can't eat them as much as I would :( but anyway maybe you are lucky and can get them more often. I hope you enjoy this combinations and try to make them at home :)

Ingredients

• 1/2 Cup of rolled oats
• Milk (any kind) to cover the oats
• 2 Tbsp of yogurt (regular, Greek, soy yogurt, coconut yogurt, etc.)
• 1 Tbsp Chia or flax seed

To give your overnight oats more flavour add whatever you want, I usually add chopped pineapple, banana, apple or any fruit that I like/have. Also some spices like mint, cinnamon, vanilla extract can  be added. To sweeten it up you can use whatever you prefer, sugar I you don't mind it or some natural alternative like honey or maple syrup of you are like me just use artificial sweeteners.

Procedure

• You can make this on a jar or a bowl, that's up to you.
• The night before you eat your overnight oats, put half a cup of rolled oats in a container.
• Then pour some milk over the oats just to cover them.
• Add the yogurt and the chia or flax seed.
• Give it a good mix or a good shake if you are using a jar (of course don't forget the lid).
• Next morning add your favourite fruits, some classic combos are: pineapple and dry shredded coconut, apple or banana and cinnamon powder. The options are endless :)
