Orange Dreamsicle Overnight Oats
1 Serving
Ingredients:
· ½ cup rolled oats (not instant)
· 1/3 cup milk of your choice (I use oat milk with 4 grams of sugar for this one)
· ¼ cup vanilla yogurt (full or low fat)
· ¼ tsp vanilla extract
· 1 teaspoon chia seeds
· A pinch of salt
· 1 orange – peeled and segments removed over a bowl to catch the juice (I like to use a zester and put some of the orange zest in, as well)
Directions:
Except for the orange, combine the ingredients in a bowl. Mix until well combined. Then, gently stir in the orange segments. Cover and allow to sit in the refrigerator overnight. Serve cold.
Note: I discovered that individual mason jars with lids are perfect for overnight oats. Try it!
