What is overnight oats?
Overnight oats (OO) is basically oats soaked in the liquid of your choice. Either milk or yogurt, but you can always experiment with other kinds. It is often chilled overnight (hence the name) and usually left uncooked. However you can heat it up if you prefer to. It is perfect for days when you are in a rush to make breakfast, just make it in a jar the day before and it’s ready to go the next day.
You can add any kinds of toppings you want to it. You can add fresh fruits, nuts, dried fruits, peanut butter, etc. Many people also add chia seeds to the overnight oats. Be adventurous and try new additions, you might be pleasantly surprised!
This is also good to put together with your kids, let them play around with their favorite toppings and learn more about fruits and nuts, etc. There’s no or minimal cooking involved, so it’s safe for them as well.
In the following list, there are several sites that provide the recipes for a basic overnight oatmeal, and if can continue from there if you want to create your own personal one-of-a-kind oatmeal. Have fun! Remember, healthy doesn’t mean boring or tasteless!

Super Quick Video Tips: How to Make the Most Perfect Bacon Ever from America’s Test Kitchen
My husband is obsessed with this stuff. I’ve made a batch every week for the past month and he’s still requesting more.
He prefers it crumbly as opposed to in bar form, so I don’t pack it into the pan too tightly, and it doesn’t require hours of cooling this way. Even easier to make. And it makes my house smell amazing every time.
Designers have created the world’s first knife with a heated blade to solve the age old problem of cold butter not spreading properly on bread. The knife heats to 41.8 degrees Celsius after research found that is the optimum temperature to spread butter. A button on the handle activates the battery operated heating element and a flashing LED indicates it is on.

Cook’s Tip of the Day: Use a rough-textured “bathing” or “exfoliating” glove to quickly and easily clean root veggies like potatoes, carrots, and beets.
The Baked Potato Grilled Cheese
- 2-3 Strips of Bacon
- 1 Potato
- 2 tbsp of Sour Cream
- Cheddar Cheese
- Green Onions/Chives
- 2 Slices of Bread
- Butter
- Canola Oil
- Garlic Powder
- Salt & Pepper
To start things off, get a pan on medium heat with enough canola oil to lightly cover the bottom (you could also use olive oil or butter). Cut your potato into even slices, you will need 4-5 slices for the sandwich, then place them in your pan, cooking each side until browned and crispy.
While cooking, salt and pepper the potatoes to taste (they don’t have to be too salty as the bacon with help with the saltiness as well) and sprinkle a light pinch of garlic powder. In another pan cook your bacon on medium heat to desired tenderness (I liked mine crispy for this sandwich!).
While everything is cooking, slice your bread (use some crusty bread like french or sourdough if you have it), and generously butter the outside of each piece. On the inside, put about 1 tablespoon of sour cream on each slice as well as slices of cheddar cheese on each side. Once your potatoes and bacon are finished frying, dab them on paper towel to remove some grease, then fan the potatoes out on your bottom slice of bread, put a little more sour cream on top of the potatoes if you desire (I did to help the bacon and chives stick in the sandwich). Slice up one green onion stalk and spread it on top of the potatoes along with the bacon. Place your other slice of cheese on top of all of this and top with your bread!
Now just grill the sandwich in a pan on medium heat until each side becomes golden brown. Once this is done, dig in and ENJOY!

Just put baked oatmeal cups in the oven.
My first time trying out this idea, so I’m just hoping they don’t suck.
I found this recipe on pinterest. Since I didn’t have applesauce and I’m generally skeptical of anything claiming to be delicious as well as sugar-free, I decided not to follow it. I just took the idea, then applied this baked oatmeal recipe.
Here’s how I did it (writing this down ASAP so I don’t forget for next time. If there is a next time.) This is for 12 oatmeal cups with four different flavors (3 cups/flavor combo).
- Follow the baked oatmeal recipe, omitting the cinnamon, brown sugar and raisins.
- Pour 1/4 of the mixture (about 1 cup) into a measuring cup, then stir in one of the flavors you want. This way the flavors are all mixed into the oatmeal, not just placed on top. I like an even flavor distribution. Spoon into 3 baking cups.
- Repeat the process with the 3 remaining flavor combinations.
- Baked for approximately 30 minutes.
The four flavor combinations I chose: Blueberry-Almond, Cinnamon-Raisin-Walnut, Apricot-Pecan-Honey, and Maple-Brown Sugar. I used dried blueberries and apricots.
So…now that they’re done: All of them taste good, but the Maple-Brown Sugar ones kinda fell apart. The mixture just ended up being too thin from the maple syrup, I guess. Gonna have to tweak that one.
Otherwise, it’s a success!
