Ingredients

Oatmeal Ingredients:

1/2 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup almond milk, or other kind of milk
1/8 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. honey
1/2 tsp. poppy seeds
1-2 tsp. lemon juice*
Tiny pinch of salt

Toppings:

Fresh lemon zest, 1/4 of a lemon
Sliced almonds, optional**

Instructions

Combine: Combine all the oatmeal ingredients in a small bowl or container. Cover and put in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Top & Enjoy: Stir the oatmeal and enjoy hot or cold. To warm, microwave the oatmeal in 30 second intervals until the desired temperature is reached. Top with almonds and fresh lemon zest.

Notes

*This amount is based on personal preference. For a mild lemony flavor, only use 1 tsp. of lemon juice. For a little zesty lemon flavor, add up to 2 tsp. of lemon juice.

**Feel free to use a different seed/nut or granola in place of sliced almonds for crunch. Fresh fruit also makes a good topping. Blueberries are my personal favorite for this particular overnight oats recipe.
