When I find something I like, I stick with it. I’m talking inseparable.
I go hard until I get very, very, very sick of the particular obsession. And I’m not just talking food, guys. I’ve had this affliction with every single season of The OC (sorry Adam Brody, we’re on a break), vanilla cupcake flavored coffee (the Van Houtte people are brilliant), and even certain flavors of chapstick.
My latest obsession? Overnight oats.
You see, I’ve had this addiction before. I ate a big, cold bowl of overnight oats every single day for several months, and then didn’t want to see it again.
But they’re baaaaaaaack. A triumphant return, you might say.
This week’s WIAW (hosted by the stupendous Jenn at Peas and Crayons) is full of oaty goodness.
Thursday:
Friday:

Kamut flakes/green juice/Greek yogurt/chia seeds/flax seed oil, topped with sunflower butter and trail mix
Monday:

Kamut flakes/chocolate protein powder/chocolate almond milk/Greek yogurt/flax seed oil, topped with cranberry granola
I even had a ginormous container of them for LUNCH on Tuesday:

Kamut flakes/green juice/Greek yogurt/an apple/a banana/flax seed oil/chia seeds, topped with trail mix. With kombucha on the side!
See what I mean? It’s go hard or go home in my household. Stay tuned next month for a post detailing why I hate overnight oats so much and never, ever, ever want to see a bowl of them again
I’ll leave you with two more meals this week, just brimming with vegetables (that’s a big deal for the weekly WIAW party!).
Monday’s dinner:
Tuesday’s dinner:

A salmon fillet, barley, roasted butternut squash/sweet potato/carrots/broccoli, topped with more Greek yogurt.
A big thank you again to Jenn for hosting this weekly shindig
I’m off to drool over some other WIAWs. Have a wonderful Wednesday!








obviously I need to get on the overnight oats bandwagon. I try not to have the same things too often specifically so that getting-sick-of-it thing doesn’t happen. It also gives me things to look forward to!
all of your meals look fresh and delicious and wholesome. I love the blobs of nut butter and all the fruit
and roasted veg are always a winner.
Seriously, those blobs of nut butter are the best part.
All those oats look pretty good to me!
Thanks! They tasted pretty good too
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
Lookin good day after day.
You keep to your oats
I agree! And thank you
The Kamut Flakes dishes look yummy and they’re new to me. On my list to google this evening after work
I bought them because my store was out of rolled oats – I like them! Slightly chewier than your standard oatmeal
Talk about an overnight oats party! I’m not an oat person, cold or hot, though. However all your dinners look amazing. Just like mine look, VERY full plate, but full of super healthy things. woot!
I have that same problem. I was obsessed with greek yogurt, cereal and blueberries all mixed together for breakfast for about 6 months. Now I feel like I’m going to gag if I think about it!
I could never gag over Greek yogurt. And I hope I never do! It’s my true love
That’s a good looking’ salmon filet! I still haven’t tried overnight oats, but I’ve been hearing good things and your combos look yummy!
Thank you! And YES, you should try. Your life will never be the same
I am seriously the only one who is not a fan of overnight oats. Though I am not a fan of oatmeal in general so that’s prob why! Your dinners look fantastic!
Oooh you’re missing out!!
I love overnight oats…but they are more of a summer thing for me, love warm oats in the cool weather!
Sometimes nothing is better on a cold morning than hot oatmeal (with peanut butter, of course!)
wow, it looks delicious, and that let me Hungry:)
Your dinners look fantastic. It’s like a buffet of healthy food!
That’s how I like it
What lovely eats! Looks awesome
Thanks! They sure hit the spot
i love how almost all your dinners have greek yogurt in them! and i do the same thing with repeating food trends. over and over and over and over again.
Of course it was included! I should change my middle name to “Greek yogurt”
have a wonderful day!
I haven’t tried Kamut yet, but it looks so great in your pics, I really should get on that!
You should! I quite like it!
