More oat-tastic grains in this one

Oats deserve a second mention - they are super nutritious and support good gut health. If you fancy an extra five minutes in bed each day, try this overnight version. Amazingly textured and perfect for chocolate fans, this bowlful blows away those cravings. The dish serves 2 and comes in under 400 Kcals, with 25g of protein in each serving, its a great start to your day. I went with pear, cinnamon, chocolate and cashew. The possibilities are endless with overnight oats, give it a try and get creative.
