Making a batch of overnight oats on the weekend makes for relaxing weekly mornings. Oats are filled with soluble fiber that keeps you full, prevents blood sugar spikes, and reduces LDL cholesterol (the "bad" cholesterol). This recipe is vegan, gluten free, vegetarian, dairy free, and totally delicious.

I buy my oats from the bulk section of supermarkets (check out my Guide to Buying in Bulk here) and use homemade almond milk to keep this breakfast low waste!
