    If you eat overnight oats to save time to get to work, then you are a tool.

    If you eat overnight oats because you like the taste or because it saves on energy, then I don’t judge.

          Add some cocoa powder to it, mix it up, let it cool off in the fridge and enjoy 😋 very delicious and simple, maybe throw in even some frozen fruits yummy

        It’s a cold version of porridge where the oats are soaked overnight instead of being heated fresh.

        I don’t like cold oats, BUT I do really like Steel Cut oats, in a slow cooker with a light timer attached to it on low.

        Mix it all up in the evening, light timer turns on 3 hours before I wake up, turns on crockpot, light timer turns off 30 minutes before I wake up. Nice hot, fully cooked breakfast in the morning.

        Do not listen to people who say it’s slimy. Idk what the hell they are putting in it for it to be slimy.

        My go-to is milk, brown sugar, and steel cut oats overnight. In the morning I’ll add diced strawberries and blueberries or banana. Awesome breakfast that’s extremely healthy. If you want even more sweetness you can add some maple syrup.

          They use quick oats instead of rolled oats or steel cut oats. Turns into depression paste. Don’t do that. Also check to make sure your rolled oats are not “quick rolled oats”, because apparently that’s a thing

        Because life is more important than work and anyone who claims otherwise is a tool.
