Recipe:
How to make overnight oats

Put 1/2 cup of Chia seeds and Steel-Cut oats into a mason jar
**I read Loni Jane's recipe wrong and put 1/2 cup of both seeds and oats
so you won't have as much in your jar!**

Fill the jar up with water until covering the seeds and oats
Put on the lid and 
keep in the fridge overnight.



In the morning, put the overnight oats into your blender with 2 banana and some shredded coconut!



 Blend for about 10 seconds, or until your oats look the same as the picture below. You do not want to over mix. 


Once your oats are ready,
 grab your mason jar!!
*Put some chocolate granola at the bottom
and add a thin layer of your oats!
*Then cut 1 banana and lay it in on top of the granola/oats.
*Then add the rest of your oats/chia seeds
*To top off your delicious overnight oats add some more chocolate granola and banana slices.



This combination is to die for! I love the texture of chia seeds and love all the omega-3's I'm getting!

Motivate yourself by layering your food!
Half of the battle to eating healthy is the presentation,
make every meal you make look beautiful.
THEN DIG IN :)
