BMW and I have become big into overnight oat bowls! We often make them with kefir or yogurt and almost always use rolled oats. Sometimes I throw in some chia seeds but BMW isn’t a huge fan of those so I just put mine on top! One thing I love about the overnight oat bowls is that you can prep a big batch for the week and then you have breakfast taken care of! I like to steer away from super processed food (like bars or boxed cereals) first thing in the morning. As much as I can, I like to eat fresh fruit or veggies so I can give my body a jump start on the day! And I mean who doesn’t love strawberries and bananas!?
Strawberry Banana Overnight Oat Bowl
This bowl recipe, along with this Tex-Mex Veggie Bowl and Spicy Cilantro Pesto Farro Bowl, first appeared in the April 2018 edition of Austin Woman Magazine.
You can easily switch up the topping for whatever is in season or in your fridge! I actually love to add frozen blueberries to mine. They sorta melt and get sweet and I think they taste great this way. If you’re really into breakfast bowls, check out my Peanut Butter and Jelly Breakfast Bowls!
Other great topping choices are:
- Frozen berries
- Chia seeds
- Goji berries
- Hemp seeds
- Nuts
- Peanut or nut butter drizzle
