5 Delicious Overnight Oatmeal Recipes for a Quick, Flavorsome and Healthy Breakfast

January 24, 2015 By Elisabeth Kruger Leave a Comment

5 Delicious Overnight Oatmeal Recipes for a Quick, Flavorsome and Healthy BreakfastI know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but making a healthy and filling meal every morning can really be a drag, or a near impossibility, if you’re always on the go with school, work or kids. I usually end up grabbing a quick yogurt—which I know is not enough to tie me over until lunchtime—simply because everything just seems to take up too much time. And waking up even earlier from my comfy, sweet slumber just to make breakfast is not a realistic goal.

So, if you suffer from the same hungry, morning blues, you’ll really love these five recipes for fresh, delicious, nutritious and healthy oatmeal. You can make this in a jar the night before (a quick process) and keep it in the fridge so that the next morning, all you have to do is open up the fridge and enjoy, or warm it up in the microwave if that’s what you prefer. Make sure to shake the jar a bit so that all the flavors combine and stew together perfectly overnight. Recipes by The Domestic Geek (Youtube), The Domestic Geek (blog). 

Each recipe starts off with the same oatmeal base of:

  • ⅓ cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¼ to ½ cup almond milk (or any type of milk that you like)

Now for the fun part… Here’s how you turn plain old oatmeal into a real tasty meal.

  1. Carrot Cake:
  • ¼ cup shredded carrot
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pecan nuts
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  1. Blueberry Lemon:
  • 1 tablespoon blueberry jam
  • ½ teaspoon lemon rind
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup blueberry
  1. Chocolate Strawberry:
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate shavings
  • ¼ cup sliced strawberries
  1. Banana Nut:
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon natural nut butter
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • ½ banana, sliced
  1. Piña Colada:
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon shredded coconut
  • 1 tablespoon almond slivers
