Happy sunday everyone,

  Breakfast is a big deal. I love it. -Joey Lawrence

WHY OATS? 

Overnight oats are one of my favourite things to make. It is the perfect way to start off your day. Oats contain a specific type of fibre which has a beneficial effect on cholesterol levels. Furthermore the comsumption of whole grains reduces the risk of heart attack....... (there are soo many good things about beneficial effects but I can´t list them all.. haha)

Let´s get started with the actual part of this post... I´m surprised by this recipe each time anew. 

I LOVE the combination of all those good ingredients, the taste and the sticky consistency!
