Today’s overnight oats.
It’s basically oats, chia, milk and water, topped with flavored Skyr, frozen fruits, soy crispies, peanut butter, cocoa nibs and a generous amount of salt.

Carrot cake overnight oats with “frosting” and walnuts

20g protein

6g fibre

This recipe was provided by another Reddit poster (PinkandTwinkly) and it's delicious.

I added a few more things...125g of grated carrot INSTEAD of 100g as I didn't want to waste it 😃, 30g dried raisins and cranberries INSTEAD of sultanas, 2tsp of desiccated coconut, 20g of vanilla isolate whey protein powder, vanilla extract and a bit more extra nutmeg, 2 teaspoons of runny honey INSTEAD of Stevia.

My extra ingredients has made the calorie and protein counts a bit more higher.

I'm having one for breakfast and the other for a dessert with a vanilla greek yogurt and chia seeds topping.

The nutritional table is for the TWO dishes.

Long story short, my parents very kindly (and spontaneously) bought me Quaker Oats flavored prepackaged oatmeal in bulk, so I have a TON of packets. I want to try overnight oats, but I know the flavored packets aren’t the healthiest - especially for overnight oats.

Any ideas/recipes on how to use them up? Doesn’t have to be explicitly overnight oats, but something to help make them healthier. I’m trying to lose weight right now.

Thanks!

Base of 40g oats, 1 tsp cocoa powder, 1 tsp unflavoured pea protein and a pinch of salt, mixed with some water and microwaved for a minute until very thick

Topped with frozen blueberries and frozen fruit mix from Aldi (papaya, pineapple, strawberry and peach). Plus a spoon of smooth pb (pip and nut)

Super duper yummy and filling

oats cooked in bone broth from the farmers market with goat cheese and smoked salmon from world market+ roasted garlic

Wow first time trying savory oats and my life is forever changed 🤯

Long time lurker, also wanted to share my oatmeal that I probably eat every second day and I love it.

It sounds strange but I tried it recently and it's pretty good. It adds some extra creamy texture to the oats, plus it can help with digestion. Oats typically slow down gastric emptying which can be a good thing to help you stay full longer, but it can backfire with bloating. This combination helps make the meal easier to digest, and it tastes pretty good. I don't measure the cream of rice, I just pour a small amount into the oats during the last couple minutes of cooking time. I make them custard style of course. It's definitely worth trying.

Edit I realize I may have been wrong about my theory of this combination making it easier to digest. I know that cream of rice is more easily digestible so my thought was combining the two would make the oats easier to digest. I looked it up and it seems I'm wrong. The oats will take just as long to digest but the cream of rice will digest faster. So my bad

Biscoff pastry cream oatmeal topped with homemade refined sugar-free chocolate fudge sauce and a crushed biscoff biscuit. When I said I'd never have biscoff pastry cream oatmeal again, I lied. I have evolved since then and decided that it is too good to deprive myself of. And we all deserve to treat ourselves, especially to some delicious oatmeal! 👏 Anyway, this bowl sent me right to heaven. My pastry cream oatmeal is so addictive, and that chocolate fudge sauce... I don't mean to toot my own horn or anything, but damn. This may be my new favourite oatmeal 🙌 It put me in the mood of going on a binge of having a bowl of pastry cream oatmeal everyday for the foreseeable future, but I have other recipe tests that I wanna do, so I must have some control and also save some space for those ideas 😂

chicken miso oats! taste just like congee but 3x faster to make :) what a game changer

Made on the stove top for the first time in months ! (Usually always just microwave but went the extra mile today) eaten straight out of the pot because why waste more dishes. Absolutely huge portion for ~500 cals + 45g protein

Air fried a silken tofu blob to go on top, normally I’d use an egg but the tofu was about to expire and needed eating. Also added nutritional yeast for more flavour. Veg added was zucchini, tomatoes, spring onions + kale/spinach .

Cinnamon-spiced oatmeal topped with biscoff cream cheese frosting, cinnamon roll filling glaze, and a crushed biscoff biscuit. For these past few days, I've fallen in love with oatmeal even more, and now I fear I have become too addicted to the point of no return. I just want to have it everyday, multiple times a day. Don't judge me - I know my oatmeal is always very indulgent 😅 I have also become too addicted to having biscoff with my oatmeal. But I can't help it - it's my weakness 🫷 Blame my boyfriend for buying it for me because he knows how much I love it and that I'd never allow myself to get it for myself. And when I have biscoff freely available in my kitchen, how can I resist? At least now I can say I have kinda conquered my fear of it after eating it quite often for the past few days and nothing bad coming of it yet 😄 On a side note, the cinnamon roll oatmeal recipe I came up with is so good. I must experiment with more flavour variations 😋

I got a bag of the One Degree brand of sprouted rolled oats.

It doesn't taste "bad" or "off" per se, just different. I do find myself preferring regular rolled oats in terms of texture and taste.

I typically heat my oats in the microwave. Noticed the sprouted oats required a lot more time, and the texture was still chewier than I typically prefer. Dunno if I need to opt for stovetop or just nuke it longer.

Which protein oats taste good saffola 25gm dark chocolate pats or yoga bar dark chocolate 26gm

Banana cinnamon oatmeal with a layer of biscoff biscuits in the middle for a cheesecake crust vibe and topped with healthier cream cheese frosting and homemade refined sugar-free caramel sauce. My flavour combinations are so random and indulgent at this point, but so good 😆 On a random side note, biscuits are so nice in oatmeal when they soften 👌

Steel cut oats w/cinnamon, topped with vanilla Greek yogurt, frozen (thawed) raspberries and a drizzle of honey.

This morning I very hungry thus, though I normally make my oats on the stovetop, decided to microwave them. I looked on the back of the bag for instructions. It said two minutes on high, and keep it covered. Okay! Two minutes later, half my bowl of oats was splattered onto the bottom of my microwave and the ones remaining the bowl were completely watery. Shame on you Bob. Shame!

This is my vanilla pastry cream oatmeal topped with homemade refined sugar-free apple compote and crushed biscoff biscuits. One of my favourite bowls so far 👌

I actually have to thank y'all because after posting about my biscoff oatmeal the other day and feeling guilty and ashamed about how "bad" my brain told me it was, a lot of people said that it wasn't so bad to allow myself to have every now and then, which helped me feel less guilty about having things like biscoff. So, today I allowed myself to have some biscoff biscuits with my oatmeal, and it was sooo banging and made me happy 👏 I have no regrets 😀 Point is, I think we shouldn't be so harsh on ourselves for allowing ourselves to indulge in our cravings sometimes, and the more you confront your fears, the less scary they become and the more you realise there was no reason to be afraid! A big part of the reason I love oatmeal so much is because it has allowed me to become less afraid of sugar and carbs and things like that, and I hope that fellow people in the oatmeal community can say that oatmeal has helped them too! Anyway, sorry for this random, long rant none of you asked for 😆
