Yummy new recipe: Overnight Oats

This is a basic recipe that you can add lots of things to. Try it with fresh fruit or berries. I love it with a little toasted slivered almonds.

Overnight Oats
I love this when the weather starts to warm up or I just want something cool
1/2 cup quick oats
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup vanilla coconut milk (or milk of your choice)
1/2 t chia seeds (optional)
dash of salt
dash of nutmeg
slivered almonds, toasted in a dry skillet

Put all ingredients in a jar or covered container in the fridge overnight. Add some toasted slivered almonds for a little extra flavor and crunch. I use the vanilla flavored milk which is slightly sweet. If you use unflavored milk you can add a little vanilla and sweetener of your choice (brown sugar, stevia, honey). But go easy. Try it without. It's not that bad!
