Peanut Butter Cup Overnight Oats

Yes, yes....I am still obsessed with Overnight Oats!!

There are so many great recipes out there that I have to keep on trying and creating my own healthy versions.

This recipe today was inspired by a coworker - she saw me with my overnight oats one day and decided to give it a try. Thankfully for her, she found a delish peanut butter cup recipe and shared!! 

My next step was taking that recipe, adding a few changes, and voila....

3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

4. Spread granola out on baking sheets. Bake until golden brown about 20-25 minutes. 

5. Remove from oven and let cool.

Tasty Tuesday here and oh boy do I have a yummy recipe 

to share with you today!!

It comes from the Hammer and Chisel program and nutrition guide.

If you have been following along with me I am now in my 4th week of Hammer and Chisel and I am loving it! Last week was my first time really taking a look at the recipe section of the nutrition guide that came with my program.  I am glad I did because there are some tasty looking recipes in there.  This one in particular was a knock your socks off super yummy recipe. 

Super healthy, filling, and easy to make!! 

Give it a try as a breakfast recipe or like me have it as a snack.  

BERRY QUINOA PARFAIT

Ingredients...
2 cups cooked quinoa 
(make sure to do this ahead of time otherwise it will prolong you trying out this awesome recipe!!)
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
1 cup fresh or frozen blackberries
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
3 cups plain Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon raw honey or pure maple syrup

Directions...
1. Evenly layer quinoa, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, yogurt, then honey or maple syrup in a tall glass. Repeat with remaining ingredients to create the layered effect. 
2. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate up to 3 days. 

I used all frozen fruit in this recipe and it turned out great! The only challenge I had was remembering to make the quinoa ahead of time :-)
Other than that I loved this recipe, my kids loved this recipe.
It for sure is a keeper for the recipe box!!
