Overnight, No-Cook Refrigerator Oatmeal

Overnight, No-Cook Refrigerator Oatmeal
(great way to eat oatmeal in the summer when you don't want it hot)

Basic recipe

1/4 c old-fashioned oats (not the quick oats)
1/4 c Greek yogurt (plain--I use the kind I make)
1/3 c milk
1 1/2 tsp chia seeds

Put all together in a pint jar (or plastic container with lid works well, too) and shake until it's all mixed up.

For flavorings add everything except fresh fruit before you shake. After it's all shaken, you can add fresh fruit and stir. It will be ready to eat in the morning.

Raspberry or Peach
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 T raspberry/peach jam
1/4-1/3 c fresh raspberries (cut in half)/chopped peaches
1/4 tsp cinnamon (if you use peaches)

Blueberry Maple
2 tsp maple syrup (real is best)
1/4 c fresh blueberries

Apple Cinnamon
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp honey
1/4 c unsweetened applesauce

Banana Peanut Butter
1 Tbsp PB
1 tsp honey
1/4 c diced ripe banana

Apricot
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 T apricot jam
2 T chopped dried apricots (or 1/4 c fresh)
