Chocolate Banana Overnight Oats

For our September Mason Jar Meal, we are making an chocolate banana oats jar!

In your mason jar meal you will find:

2 cups GF oats

4 tsp chia seeds

½ cup milk powder

4 tsp flaxseeds

2 tsp cinnamon

2 tbsp cocoa powder

1 apple

If you received a lactose free mason jar meal you will find the same ingredients without the ½ cup a of milk powder (instructions to cook are the same for both types)

Instructions for cooking the Mason Jar Meal

• Empty the contents into a pot and add 4 cups of water

• Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally

• Remove from the heat and let stand for 2 minutes.

• Dice the banana and serve on top

• Enjoy!

Instructions to prepare overnight oats for the next day

• Empty the contents of the mason jar meal into a liquid friendly container (can be plastic or glass)

• Add 4 cups of cold water to the dry mixture

• Stir/shake well and refrigerate overnight (at least 6-8 hours). The oats, and chia seeds will absorb the liquid and soften overnight.

• Add the diced banana on top after serving.

• Enjoy!
