We have two kids, so this helps take the guesswork out when there is so much else to get ready before we all leave our apartment in the mornings. <br /><br />Overnight bowls:<br />I love unsweetened coconut (non-dairy) yogurt with hemp hearts and either whole or ground chia seeds (or ground flax). Topped with choice of fruit (I especially love frozen wild blueberries), a few drops of stevia for sweetness (since I'm off refined sugars), and shredded coconut and some cinnamon. Others may wish to add dried fruit and nuts. I sometimes stir in some oats or rolled quinoa flakes or whole quinoa (I often keep some on-hand in the fridge). You can do so many variations of this. The seeds and nuts soaking in the yogurt overnight also softens them and makes them easier to digest.<br /><br />You can also soak raw buckwheat groats overnight, then rinse them in the morning and add them to a yogurt bowl or to your oats for some varied texture, nutrition, and flavour. <br /><br />Overnight oats done in a similar fashion with these kinds of toppings are also good.<br /><br />--Vesna (Ivan's sister) :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178592353718230183noreply@blogger.com
