I’ve been out of town for almost two weeks. The one thing I terribly miss while on vacation is my morning routine, specifically speaking, oats, almond milk, nut butters and coffee.
I’ve gotten so accustomed to my routine that I actually look forward to coming back home so I can catch up on my shows and enjoy oatmeal and coffee on my couch. It’s the simple things in life that bring the utmost joy.
During the winter I love a bowl of Hot Oatmeal, but during the summer it’s all about creamy Overnight Oats in a Jar.
Peaches and blueberries are a classic combo that I don’t combine often enough, so I decided to throw them both in for breakfast and made Peach Blueberry Chia Overnight Oats.
The result is creamy, delicious, healthy oats finished off with your favorite toppings.
For my version, I topped my oats with slivered almonds, peach, blueberries, coconut and a little drizzle of honey.
Hope you guys enjoy this very filling and satisfying breakfast as much as I did.

Overnight oats are the best, aren’t they? Love all the flavor and goodness you’ve packed into this dish — really good stuff. Thanks!
They sure are. I love them, this one tastes more like dessert. Really good! Thanks John!!
Im raising my glass to the simple things, Nisha,-cos they are where it’s at! ?? And, I totally understand wanting to get home to get back to your routine… if my routine involved these cups of deliciousness, I’d be wanting to get home just as badly! Btw, have so enjoyed your IG stories of yalls travels! xo
You’re right, I love the simple things in life, especially now cause I for so long took them for granted. Oatmeal and coffee isn’t the same unless you are in the comfort of your own home. Thanks for watching. So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
All your dishes look like a dream. You are so talented and hope you visit SG soon… Honeymoon maybe!
