Pomegranate and Coconut Overnight Oats
Vegan Overnight Oats are a meal prepper's secret weapon at breakfast - or better said the night before breakfast. They take just a couple minutes to make at night before bed or can be made ahead for several days of the week. When you mix together rolled oats, chia seeds, and almond milk, the chia seeds absorb the milk and the oats soften, creating an effortless chilled porridge. Place it in the fridge at night and forget about it until morning, when you’ll wake up to a cool, creamy bowl of oats that’s just perfect in the spring or summer. Of course it can be microwaved for a minute or so to warm your tummy and soul on a chilly winter morning.

Notes
If you prefer your overnight oats dense, use 1 to 2 tbsp less milk. If you like your oats soupy with a lot of extra liquid, either add more the night before, or top with additional milk when serving.
