Overnight Oats

Today was a coffee drink'n, teeth'n and crash napp'n kind of day. (Yawn)  Being healthy is important to me so that I can live life to the fullest and also set a good example for my family.  I find that one of my biggest hindrances to not eating healthy is lack of planning.  Therefore, it's necessary that I prepare healthy meals and snacks in advance so that I don't opt for the junky, but all too convenient option.

These overnight oats are packed with nutrition and flavour.  It also keeps me feeling fuller longer which is good for the 'ole waistline too!  Enjoy!
