Overnight Steel Cut Oats

Today marks day one of my 5 week challenge.  Operation Abs is in full effect.  I spent a majority of yesterday morning prepping food for the week.  I know when food is prepped and ready, there is less room for slip ups.  Luckily, my food intake doesn't have to change too much and I have been able to use a lot of my recipes from my blog.  I made a huge batch of my Vegetarian "fried" Brown Rice, boiled some eggs, put together bags of veggies and hummus, baked some chicken for my hubby, steamed some veggies, and put together some awesome, grab and go breakfasts in mason jars.  Today I am sharing my Overnight Steel Cut Oats recipe!  I knew I wanted to use steel cut oats because they are less processed than other old fashion oats but there weren't many recipes around for overnight steel cut oats, so in pure Lacey fashion, I made up my own!  Enjoy!

Overnight Steel Cut Oats

Ingredients

1/4 cup steel cut oats, uncooked
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 Tbsp pure honey
1/4 cup fruit of choice, sliced (I used bananas)
Sprinkle of cinnamon

In a medium sized mason jar, combine all ingredients.  Seal and let sit in the refrigerator overnight.

  1. Do you have calorie, fat, protein, sugar counts etc? Just curious what one mason jar breakfast is.

    1. I don't have that breakdown as it really can vary depending on what fruit you use. For mine, one jar was 240 calories.
