![]() Most days I take a protein shake to work, but today I tried something different. I saw an add for a company that makes Protein Overnight Oats. Serving price wasn't horrible (about $3-$5 a piece). But I am cheap and I have all the ingredients at home. So I tried making my own this morning. I am really liking it. Here is what I used. Now I will say that this made enough for 2 servings. But since I am working all day and forgot a lunch, I am hoping this will sustain me through. So with that said you can cut this recipe in half, or just divide it into 2 jars. INGREDIENTS 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats (7g of protein) 4 tbsp peanut butter powder (12g of protein) 1 tsp chia seeds (.7g of protein) 1 cup water 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (1g of protein) 1 scoop protein powder (22g of protein) 1/3 cup Oikos Triple Zero Greek Yogurt - Vanilla (8.5g of protein) 1.5 tbsp organic cocoa powder (1.5g of protein *for a total of 573 calories & 52.7g of protein for the whole recipe. Or 286.5 calories & 26.35g of protein per serving DIRECTIONS this makes 2 servings

Spreadability: Nice and creamy Smell: Doesn't have much of a smell Ingredients: Filtered Water, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Soy Protein Concentrate, Corn Starch, Sea Salt, Tricalcium Phosphate, Natural Flavors, Organic Locust Bean Gum, Xanthum Gum, Guar Gum, Vegan Culture. Flavor: Very mild and somewhat neutral. Bagel Test: It spread on nicely and melted slightly on my freshly toasted bagel. When I bit into the bagel I didn't have any strong reactions to the flavor or texture. Overall it paired well with my plain, toasted bagel. Husband Test: Liked it a lot, actually. He doesn't like anything coconut - so that will tell you that is doesn't have a coconut'y flavor. I give it 4 out of 5 Cheeses. Would like to see a little more boldness and tang in the flavor. FINE PRINT: This is not a paid review of any kind. I am documenting my own opinions of products that I paid for out of my own pocket.
This was my first time using coconut flour. It makes a nice hearty bun that can hold up to what ever you use to fill it. Tonight I filled mine with a Cooked Chicken Breast and Sharp Cheddar Cheese and it was delightful! The bun held up nicely and only started to crumble a little towards the last couple of bites.
INGREDIENTS 1 1/4 cup coconut flour 1 tbsp. baking powder 1 tsp. Kosher salt 6 eggs 1/2 cup olive oil 1 Tbsp. water DIRECTIONS
