Hey guys, I didn't know how to post it so I'm just doing it this way...I actually got this recipe from Gordon Ramseys cookbook and I've always had it for breakfast, and it's delicious! I would have it everyday! All you do is take: 1 cup of dry rolled oats and 3/4 cup of almond milk (you can use any kind, I just prefer this. He also uses skim milk, so I just substituted) put it together in a bowl and put it in the fridge the night before. Then in the morning you take it out and add 1/2 cup of more milk, drizzle just about a tablespoon of honey (as a sweetner) and a handful of mixed berries.....I PROMISE you'll LOVE it! It is completley fufilling!

you can also sort of do this with steel cut oats. heat up the water, add the oats, turn the heat off, cover, and leave over night. in the morning all you have to do is heat it back up which takes only a few minutes. i like to add a little brown rice syrup to sweeten it up. yum!

Something for breakfast I don't have to cook?!?!? I think you just saved my life! Or at least my mornings. LOL Thanks!

Lindsay, if I'm using steel-cut oats, I cook them in water and am not adding the almond milk? Do I have that right? I always wanted to use steel-cut oats but never have because somehow I got the impression they couldn't be stored without becoming a brick. LOL

What a cool idea! Never heard this before! Thank You! For the vegans you can substitute the honey with agave nectar.
