Peanut Butter and Banana Overnight Oats

Overnight oats are a great way to meal prep ahead of time. They are an excellent source of whole grains, fiber, and protein to help keep you satisfied. Start with 1/2 cup of milk or milk alternative. If you prefer a thicker or thinner final product, just adjust your amount of liquid accordingly. 

This classic combination of peanut butter and banana makes a tasty and filling breakfast, snack, or dessert. Customize your overnight oats with your milk, yogurt, nut butter, and toppings of choice.
