Green Overnights


Photo source: Oh She Glows

Have you ever heard of vegan overnights for breakfast? Its kind of like a no cook oatmeal. I have made these before but they never turned out well, so when Oh She Glows posted a new recipe, I had try again. And the second time was a charm :)

The night before mix in a blender a handful of spinach or a small handful of kale, 1 large ripe banana, 1.5 TB chia seeds (these are necessary to make the recipe thicken) and 1 cup of almond milk. I also added some maple syrup to sweeten. You could also try honey or stevia.

In a separate bowl add 1/3 uncooked rolled oats and top with the smoothie mix (above). Stir together until combined and place in the frig (you do not need to cover).

When you wake up give the vegan overnights a stir and enjoy. Feel free to add granola or fruit too!

This recipe is perfect for the mornings that you need to rush out the door.
