Overnight Oatmeal Brunch!

This is one of my most favorite discoveries! Easy prep and no cooking! It took me a few weeks of trial and error to get the consistency just right. I think it's super tasty, and oatmeal is just so good for you! Not only does it help you feel full and satisfied, but it can give you a good amount of energy to help you burn fat as well, if that's something you're in to. Mostly, I eat it because I like it(which is my life mantra). XD

Feel free to put any kind of fruit in it. Find your favorite combination!
(Some nice options are strawberry, mango, peach. GO WILD!)

Serving: One
Prep: 5 min.
Chill: 8 hours / Overnight

1/2 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
1/2 cup Mixed Berries i.e. raspberry, blackberry, blueberry (I use frozen)
1/3 cup Milk
1/3 cup Greek Yogurt
4 tbsp raw Pumpkin Seeds
2 tbsp Agave Nectar (or honey) or to taste

Mix together milk, Greek yogurt, agave, and rolled oats in a pint sized jar, or a two cup airtight container.
Stir in pumpkin seeds and then berries.
Refrigerate overnight at least 8 hours.

Enjoy!

P.S. - Want to add other things? Or you don't like pumpkin seeds?
Try adding a teaspoon of ground flaxseed or chia seeds (but add extra milk if you add the latter).
Try honey flavored Greek yogurt even.
Well, the list is probably miles long, haha, but don't worry. All you need are the base ingredients – oats, milk, Greek yogurt, sweetener.
You can even try different liquids instead of milk! Like orange juice for example.
I can't guarantee the results however. ;)
Be creative! Or don't. That's fine too in this instance. <3
