Ingredients and Substitutions:

• 1 Minute Quick Oats - you can make overnight oats using quick oats, instant oats and steel cut oats. If you are wondering which style overnight oats is best for weight loss, steel cut oats are particularly rich in resistant starch and fiber, both of which may support weight-loss.
• Sometimes in lieu of the traditional overnight oats recipe I like to use half quick oats and half Bob's Red Mill Steel Cut Oats for some extra fiber.
• If you do use steel cut oats in your basic overnight oats recipe make sure you have time for a true make ahead overnight oats recipe as it will need to soak in the fridge for 8-10 hours for the best creaminess.
• Plain Greek Yogurt - I like to use Plain Greek Yogurt and use spices like Cinnamon and fresh frozen fruit to make my double berry overnight oats. If you don't have fresh or frozen fruit on hand feel free to use a flavored Greek Yogurt like blueberry or strawberry for some yogurt flavored berry oats.
• Chia Seeds - You can swap Chia Seeds for Bob's Red Mill Ground Flaxseed Meal or better yet use both. Flax seeds in overnight oats are really good. If you like that earthy, nutty flavor you can even try adding in some crushed walnuts, sunflower seeds or even pumpkin seeds.
• Make this Gluten Free - You can easily turn this into a gluten free overnight oats recipe by using gluten free products like Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Old Fashioned Rolled Oats.

How to make overnight oats with frozen berries:

1: Combine all ingredients in a mason jar or large glass. I like to do it in layers. First layer - ⅓ cup of quick oats. Next layer - ⅓ cup of Chia Seeds. Next layer - ⅓ cup of Vanilla Almond Milk. Next layer - ⅓ Cup of Plain Greek Yogurt. Next layer - 2 packets of Stevia or about one teaspoon. Next, a dash of Cinnamon. Final layer - ¾ cup of berries. I used strawberries and blueberries but feel free to use your favorite fresh or frozen berry.

2: Cover your mason jar with the lid and refrigerate overnight. If you are using a glass just cover with a piece of Saran Wrap.

3: After 8 hours remove from the refrigerator give it a stir, garnish with some sliced almonds if you like and it is ready to eat. Enjoy!!

Expert tips:

• If you don't have fresh fruit you can use frozen store bought fruit, it is just as tasty!
• Sliced Almonds, crushed walnuts, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds are a great topping for some extra crunch on your easy overnight oats with yogurt recipe.
• Flavored extracts like apple, peach and pear are great to add to a basic overnight oats recipe if you don't have a lot of spices.
• For a protein boost try adding a scoop of the WW Vanilla Protein Booster.
• Make sure you rinse out your mason jar with some hot water when you are finished eating to prevent it sticking to your jar and making clean up easy.
