Overnight Coconut Chai Oatmeal

Oatmeal has been my favorite breakfast since I was a little girl. But I have grown far away from the instant sugar filled oats. This vegan sweet yet spicy chai oatmeal is a great way to start the day, especially when you don't have to wake up and make it! Throw all the ingredients into a glass bowl with a lid and put it in the fridge over night. When you wake up everything is ready, just heat up and devour!



1 cup steel-cut oats (or which ever oats you prefer)
1 cup rice milk
2 Tbs. chia seeds (optional)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
1/2 Tbs maple syrup
1 Tbs Spectrum Chia and Flax Oil Twister in Coconut flavor
1 Tbs shredded coconut (optional)

Mix oats, milk, chia sees, all the spices, maple syrup, Chia and Flax Twister, in a glass jar/bowl with a lid.  Close jar, and refrigerate overnight.
Open lid and stir and if you want it warm, zap it i the micro or heat it on the stove just to get it warm. Or just eat cold! :) Sprinkle the top with the shredded coconut and whatever else gets your belly happy in the morning! Devour!
