Raise your hand if you made a health-related New Year’s Resolution? Me! Me! Me! Now that we are 3 months into 2016, it’s time for a check up. One of my goals was to make better food choices.
To help with my goal, I started making this easy Overnight Oatmeal. It’s a healthy breakfast option that is incredibly easy to make.
I love that I can assemble everything the night before and stash it in the fridge overnight. Then, during busy mornings, I simply add my favorite toppings and breakfast is served!
It doesn’t get much easier than this! Seriously. It takes longer to make toast!
Everything is portion controlled and I’m getting a wholesome breakfast that is full of good-for-you ingredients like oatmeal, chia seeds and fresh fruit.
I pair it with a glass of green juice and a daily Nature Made multivitamin.
Eating a balanced diet is always best, but Nature Made can help support nutritional gaps. It’s the nation’s #1 best-selling brand for quality vitamins, minerals and supplements* and is the #1 Pharmacist recommended supplement brand in 9 categories**. So I know I’m getting the daily recommended vitamins and minerals that my body needs.
I’ve also joined the Nature Made 30-Day Program. It provides motivation and tips around my specific health goals. Those that sign up are automatically entered to win a grand prize of $5,000*! It’s a great addition to this easy Overnight Oatmeal for keeping me on track.
