Overnight Choco-Raspberry Oatmeal

It’s amazing (or perhaps just frustrating) how being away for a weekend can throw off my blog schedule so much. It’s been six days since my last post! You’d think after a break like this, I’d have some elaborate concoction to share, but alas, this one is pretty simple (but nevertheless delicious!).

My roommies and I went to Boston over the weekend. Considering it’s one of the top three U.S. cities I’ve ever wanted to visit (along with San Francisco and New Orleans!), I was so grateful to have that opportunity. I love my life right now!

Normally, I create all my oatmeal recipes over the weekend and share them throughout the following week. Since I wasn’t able to do that last weekend, I didn’t have any posts to share this week! 🙁 Finally, however, I got THIS recipe put together. I apologize for the mediocre photos; it’s the best I could do at 5:30 am!

(I don’t think I properly “sold” this recipe to you. Despite all my apologies and ramblings, I promise this oatmeal was delicious!!)

Overnight Choco-Raspberry Oatmeal

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Yield: serves 1

What you'll need:

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (I use Country Choice Organic)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice
  • 1/4 cup frozen raspberries
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • pinch of salt
  • handful of semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

How to make it:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a mason jar.
  2. If you'd like to add any extra ingredients (coconut oil, dried fruit, nuts, sunflower seeds), do so now.
  3. Cover, and shake vigorously!
  4. Store in the fridge for several hours or overnight. Either eat cold or warm up in the morning! If you plan on warming it up, I suggest NOT adding the chocolate chips until the morning, AFTER you microwave it.
