Get the sweet and comforting flavor of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with Mealplan Expert Amanda Meixner’s PB&J Overnight Oats recipe.
This tasty breakfast hack is super easy to make and requires zero cooking. We love making overnight oats because all it involves is layering your ingredients in a Mason jar (or any type of glass jar) then popping it in the fridge.
Instead of high-sugar jam or jelly, these PB&J Overnight Oats use fresh blueberries and strawberries, which are low glycemic (aka low sugar) fruits and are packed with vitamin C, folate and antioxidants. Chia seeds add omega-3 fatty acids and even more antioxidants to this mix, while the oats do the heavy lifting with fiber and keep you satiated through lunch.
Prep these PB&J Overnight Oats on a Sunday, and have a nutritious grab-and-go breakfast for the next three days. We’d expect nothing less from Amanda, Instagram’s meal prep guru.
