Oats are one of the most nutrient-dense foods, packed with fiber, manganese, phosphorus, magnesium and protein, to name a few.

The plastic pint freezer jars are the perfect size for your Chia Overnight Oats. Since it’s a serving for two, you can scoop out half for breakfast and save the other serving in the same container for another day.

The cumin adds an earthy flavor that makes this avo toast pop.

To make this even quicker, mash the avocado, salt, pepper, cumin, juice, and zest ahead of time and keep in a airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to eat. The lemon juice should help keep the avocado from browning, but you’ll also want to put plastic wrap directly on the avocado mash before placing the container top. Purchase hard-boiled eggs or add the eggs to your meal prep list and hard-boil (or poach) four ahead of time before you’re ready to eat.

The pistachios in the oats provide a perfect protein-fiber-fat trio that may help keep you fuller longer.

Heat it up and then top with banana and pistachios right before serving. To reheat, add a touch of almond milk and microwave for one to two minutes and stir before eating. You can also drizzle it with honey or maple syrup.
