Apple icon Tips

  • Overnight oats are an ideal make-ahead breakfast to take to work or for after your morning workout. Pack containers in a chiller bag, ready to grab and go in the morning.
  • Berries can be replaced with any combination of fresh fruit.
  • Use honey in place of maple syrup, if preferred.
