Recipe: Strawberries and Cream Overnight Oats

by JJ Virgin on February 13, 2018

Overnight oats are so berry good! And this scrumptious recipe has a lot going for it…

  1. Yummy strawberries, an amazing superfood with fiber, omega-3s, and healthy carbs
  2. Healthy fats are crucial to a speedy metabolism that burns fat for lasting energy throughout the day (Find out more about that here: Top 10 Foods to Boost Your Metabolism Fast.)
  3. Clean, lean protein from high-quality protein powder that’s free of inflammatory ingredients like whey, soy, gluten, and artificial sweeteners – that protein is key to feeling wide awake at 10 AM instead of ready for naptime…

The end result is a delicious, filling breakfast that starts your morning off right!

In fact, getting the right nutrition in your first meal sets your metabolic tone for the whole day. Research shows it’s even an important part of the healthy hormone release that will help you get good rest tonight!

So set aside ten minutes before bedtime to make a batch of these tasty overnight oats – you won’t be sorry!
