Overnight Oatmeal with Greek Honey, Bananas, and Chia Seeds
NUTRITIONAL INFO ABOUT OATMEAL: Oats are rich in carbs and fiber, including beta-glucan fiber. This fiber helps reduce cholesterol and blood sugar levels, promotes healthy gut bacteria, and increases feelings of fullness.
They are also a great source of high-quality protein, with a good balance of essential amino acids. Oats are loaded with important vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant plant compounds.
If you’re wondering what type of oats to choose, you should go for oat groats. They are whole oat kernels, no cuts, flakes, or grinding. They take longer to cook but since every part of a grain contains vital nutrients, groats are incredibly healthy.
