My First Attempt at Gluten Free Overnight Oats

Overnight Oats are all the rage. Convenient, tasty, and healthy, overnight oats are a great addition to your breakfast options. They are made the night before and refrigerated, ready for your on-the-go morning. I like using a mason jar, as it has an airtight top, perfect for overnight storage and even portable to enjoy your breakfast at work.

There are tons of recipes online for overnight oats. This was just my first attempt and it was pretty tasty.

Gluten Free Oats (I like Trader Joe's Gluten Free Oats)
Milk or dairy free alternative
Plain Greek Yogurt
Maple Syrup
Blueberries

The great thing about overnight oats is that you can use any combination or make to your desired taste. The key is to cover the oats in liquid so they set overnight. I layered the greek yogurt for a little more protein and added a dash of maple syrup for a little sweetness. I used blueberries, but you can use any fruit you prefer.

I plan to experiment with more variations and will post what I come up with, but what are your favorite kind of Overnight Oats?

Quick and Easy Sports Food!

Need a quick snack for your sports event that packs in the protein and is easily digested? One of my favorite on the golf course snacks is tuna. It is a great source of protein and fuels me throughout the round. 

I use tuna packed in olive oil. I find that it is less dry and many others contain vegetable stock that could contain wheat or corn. I also add kalamata olives and artichoke hearts for flavor. I really like the Trader Joe's brand of the tuna, olives, and artichoke hearts. 

4 Individual Cans of tuna with olive oil

1 Jar of kalamata olives

1Jar of Marinated Artichoke Hearts
