Overnight Oats – squillions of ideas
I am a new convert to overnight oats, and I’m loving them.These are wonderful if you are time stretched. You can make up dishes ready to be topped, or a big bowl that can be used over several days, or directly in little pots ready to be topped and carried off to work or school. Children may like the control of topping their own oats, or if littlies, tiny little individual portions may appeal.
Spinach, tomato, plum and feta salad with crusty bread 71p
