Notes

This was super easy to make and didn't take much time. This is a great basic recipe of wanting to do something easy but also doesn't take over 10 minutes to make/prep.
This is great because my husband is not a breakfast person but if he is hungry he likes to eat something light and easy to take for work. This is so easy he can grab one and add it to his lunch bag for breakfast or lunch and it was easy.
If you want to make this more fruit flavor add in strawberries, bananas, or chia seeds (but make sure to let them absorb water or milk for up to 15 minutes or overnight to rehydrate the seeds)
Adding fruits is a great way to add in more nutritious if you want and more fiber. We prefer protein powder but you don't have to add that much if you don't want to its all options of if you want to add it in or not.
