Friends,
I’ve apparently been on a breakfast kick lately.
Is that a bad thing? Hell no!
I need all the motivation I can get to remove myself from bed in the morning.
My latest motivation?
These vegan overnight oats!
Chocolate Overnight Oats for the Busiest of Vegans
Now, I honestly have no idea why I shied away from overnight oats for so long. Perhaps I thought they were too good to be true?
“You’re telling me I can shake all of this in a jar and it’s gonna turn into a magical breakfast??”
That’s EXACTLY what I’m telling you!
It took a couple of tests to find the perfect balance of chocolate and sweetness.. I’ve finally achieved perfect equilibrium.
These overnight oats are:
- Bursting with chocolaty flavor
- Lightly sweetened to perfection
- Packed with plant-based protein
- Overflowing with Omega’s
- A great source of iron!
Best of all?
Overnight oats are actually healthier for you than regular oats! Go figure!
Overnight Oats are Perfect for Meal-Prepping!
What’s my favorite thing about making overnight oats?
I make four of them at a time for an (almost) constant supply of chocolate goodness!
Sure, you could probably make more than four at a time, but I worry about them sitting for too long.
Give your future-self a present with these delicious chocolate oats.
