Overnight Oats — photo 1

Overnight oats are rolled oats soaked overnight in the fridge in milk and yogurt, so they soften without cooking, and eaten cold with fresh fruit. A 300 g jar has about 355 kcal, 17 g of protein and 7 g of fiber, plus about 19 g of sugar from the milk, fruit and a little honey. Leaving out the honey removes the only added sugar, about 6 g per jar.
