Green Monster Overnight Oats

Here's another overnight oats recipe!  My other overnight recipes so far include:

Chocolate Oatmeal (a version of cooked overnight oats)
Mango Almond Overnight Oats
Strawberry Banana Overnight Oats

Today's recipe includes leafy greens, which is a great way to start your day!

This recipe was adapted from Oh She Glows:

Ingredients:

• About 1 cup kale or spinach
• 1/2 large ripe banana
• 1 tbsp chia seeds
• 1/2 cup almond milk
• 1/4 cup gf rolled oats

Directions:

1. In a blender, blend together spinach, banana, chia seeds, and almond milk until smooth.
2. In a glass jar (or cereal bowl), add the oats and then pour the green smoothie on top and stir until well combined.
3. Place in the fridge overnight.  In the morning, stir and add desired topping such as nut butter, granola, coconut, fruit, etc. and serve cold. 

 I added granola to mine in the morning because I thought this needed some crunch.

I love how I got a serving of vegetables first thing in the morning and you couldn't even taste the greens (I mostly tasted the banana).
