Overnight Refrigerator Oats 

My toddlers' bowls - made by them!

This recipe is my go-to breakfast on our super early days and the "I don't know what we're having for breakfast" days.  I make it the night before, usually after we finish supper.  And my 4 year old twins love to help!  I like using the pictured Corningware 20 oz mug because it has a lid, it's sturdy, and it's convenient for on-the-go.  Mason jars work great as well.

These oats are chewy, slightly sweet, and perfectly filling. 

I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
