Easy Overnight Oats

We love overnight oats because, yup, you guessed it, you can make them ahead of time. This is also a no-cook recipe, and a great change in the spring and summer months. Make overnight oats on Sunday evening, and have one less thing to worry about on busy Monday mornings. Monday’s are always tougher on the kids after all weekend at home. Skip the glass jars for serving.
