I have seen a few posts and magazine articles about overnight oatmeal and my mother n law has made it with whey protein. I began to search for a way to make it where it wasn't so expensive. I found a few different recipes off of pinterest and came up with a concoction of my own.

Ingredients:
Steel cut oats
( I used the prepackaged but later found it cheaper ridiculously cheap in the bins at Whole Foods )
milk
walnuts
peanut Butter
frozen Fruit
honey
greek yogurt
mashed bananas(optional)
I put about 3-4 cups of steel cut oatmeal in a big bowl that I will keep in the fridge all week.I added a handful of chopped walnuts. Next, I addedabout 1 tablespoon of peanut butter. I combined about 3/4 cup of Vanilla Bean Yogurt( that was in my fridge) and a drizzle of honey. I set out the frozen rasberitries, blueberries, and strawberries mixture to thaw a little and put some in there too. Lastly, I drizzled a little honey in there. I poured about twice the amount full of milk as the entire mixture combined. Overnight, the oatmeal will soak up the milk and it will get dry if you don't put a lot of it. When you spoon it out, you don't get all of this milk. It wil be delicious and filling!

I mixed everything together well and set it in the fridge overnight. The great thing about this, is that I will leave it in the fridge all week for my husband and I to have for breakfast. It is delicious, healthy and ready made breakfast. What else could you ask for?
