Mark’s Overnight Oats

I just shared my steel cut oat recipe that I’ve been eating (Mark enjoys them too), but I wanted to share Mark’s overnight oats that I’ve been making him in his breakfast rotation lately.

We eat similar, but still different. For example I do much better with steel cut oats than old fashioned oats when I’m eating oats often. Mark does great with both. Another example, I’ve started eating eggs at home, but Mark only eats them on special occasions – when out to eat, with friends,family,etc. since eggs are not in his best interest to eat often. The results from our Function health test verified a lot of the findings we already had a hunch on (food-wise). We ‘ve learned and continue to learn our individual needs and what foods/pairings we each thrive on. Also, bodies change so we continue to tweak and change along the way.

1 large, filling serving – adjust to your needs

• 1/2 cup GF oats
• 1 serving vanilla protein powder
• 1 TBSP chia seeds
• 1/4 tsp Ceylon cinnamon for blood sugar support
• 1/2 cup water or milk of choice
• 1 cup frozen berries
• various nuts

1. Add the oats, protein powder, chia seeds, cinnamon, and liquid into a 16 oz mason jar. Mix this well first. I take a butter knife to stir it up well.
2. Once the oats are well mixed with the liquid and powder, top the jar off with 1 cup of frozen berries. Add in some nuts if desired. I’ve been adding Brazil nuts for his selenium and then adding in soaked almonds or walnuts depending on the day.
3. Cover and store in the fridge overnight or up to 3 days. I’ll often make 3 jars at a time so he has breakfast the next 3 days.
4. In the morning, pour into a serving bowl and mix well. ENJOY!
