Cook with Patsitivity: A filling breakfast

---

Here to bring you another recipe that might help you simplify your next battle in the kitchen! This recipe is simple but loaded with nutrients you need to survive foggy mornings at work.

Ingredients (indicated figures below are per container/glass jar)

• Almond - 2-3 tsps chopped, if you have access to sliced almonds the better
• Oats - 1/3 cup, the base of this creation/recipe. In the Philippine market, we have two (2) types of oats, the instant one and the whole rolled oats. For this recipe, I used the whole rolled oats.
• Chia Seeds - 1-2 tsp
• Toppings of your choice, in our case we got some canned blueberries. If you can get hold of fresh fruits, the better

• Milk (2/3 cup) and yogurt (2-3 tbsp): two things that will make or break your overnight oats. If it's up to me, I'd buy normal fresh or full cream milk but since my boyfriend will eat most of these, we opted for a gut-friendly almond milk. We went for greek yogurt for the extra tangy,less sweet taste.

Easy as 1, 2, 3

I've written too many to count recipes and shared them with you here in Hive, but this one's by far the easiest; no flames, pots and oil required, just a few glass jar or any container for that matter. On this note, I had difficult deciding where to put this recipe whether in my "Bake with Patsivity" or "Cook with Patsitivity" sub categories. I guess that don't matter that much now.

Clear glass jars are what most recipes will call for but at the end of the day, it won't matter. But for the vibe and aesthetics, the see through glass jars make this snack/breakfast option more appealing.

In a clean jar, or in our case, jars, pour the rolled oats based on the measurement I mentioned in the ingredients corner of this post; we made a few jars good for an entire week. Meal prepping in a way to ensure we eat only the healthiest.

Add the milk of your choice. If you're using almond milk, I warn you! Your overnight oats might turned less milky than you want it to be. I find the almond milk a bit bland and more on the watery side when compared with fresh or full cream milk. In the future, I'd use full cream milk!

Add 2-3 tablespoons of yogurt per jar. Again, we went for Greek yogurt but you can use the flavored yogurts such as mango, strawberry and blueberry. Be creative! If you plan on making different flavors from the same base, the greek yogurt is the safest choice tho.

Add 1-2 teaspoon/s of chia seeds. Chia seeds is one of the many known super food so I highly suggest not skipping this in your overnight oats recipe.

Now the exciting part! Finally, add in your choice of toppings. In our case, we added some chopped almond and canned blueberries. Do not limited yourself. I've seen tutorials wherein they made different flavors of overnight oats; the same base but different toppings. This makes each overnight oat exciting to eat every morning you picked them up from your fridge.

Other popular variants would be peanut butter and banana, apple and cinamon, strawberry, peanut butter and jelly, chocolate to name a few. Before you let these jars sit in the fridge overnight (that's why they're called overnight oats I guess), give them a good mix and add more toppings if you want.

The following day would be the best time to indulge yourself with these fruity and milky bowls. If like me, you'd rather do the hard thing once, you can prepare all your overnight oats for the week by Sunday, let it sit in the fridge and get a jar eachd day. Stress-free and healthy breakfast always a grab away!
