I never thought I would like "overnight oats," but last week we got a wild hair and decided to make some. It turns out I was right: I don't like overnight oats! The raw oatmeal tastes okay but the raw texture is not appetizing to me. But it turns out that if I put them in the microwave for 30 seconds, they cook really fast after soaking all night; the oats plump up and lose the raw texture.

The other night we made it with extra thick rolled oats, milk, chia seeds, MRM Vanilla Veggie Protein Powder, and cinnamon. The MRM protein is sweetened with monk fruit, and imo it is way, way too sweet-tasting so we didn't add any sweetener. B loved it as-is, I liked it cooked. Tonight I just made a small amount in a jar for myself, with all the same stuff except the cinnamon. I think tomorrow I am going to cook it with some blueberries.

The MRM protein powder is really fiber and nutrient-dense, and it basically tastes like cookies.
