Raspberry Overnight Oats with Chia Seeds

Summer’s not over. Not yet. I’m not ready for that and in order to celebrate, I decided to revisit an old favorite of mine, a.k.a. my go-to summer breakfast. I last posted a recipe for overnight oats over a year ago (Banana-Mixed Berries anyone?), and while the base recipe basically hasn’t changed, I made three major changes to it, by adding:

• chia seeds
• frozen berries
• quick cooking oats instead of old fashioned

Although these changes might seem minimal, they transformed my morning overnight oats experience.
