Servings: 3

Ingredients

• 2 medium overripe bananas, mashed
• 1 cup milk of choice
• 1/2 cup small curd cottage cheese (or plain Greek yogurt)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 tablespoons real maple syrup
• 1 1/4 cups rolled oats
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds (or ground flax)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
• chopped pecans (or walnuts), for topping (optional)

Here's how to make it:

1. In a large mixing bowl, add the mashed bananas, milk, cottage cheese or yogurt, vanilla and maple syrup. Stir to combine. (If you don't like your cottage cheese chunky, you can whip it in a blender first. Alternatively, you can use plain Greek yogurt.)
2. Add the oats, chia and salt. Stir to combine. (Oats are naturally gluten-free, but if you need to be sure, use gluten-free oats.)
3. Fold in the strawberries.
4. Transfer the mixture to a large Mason jar (or other airtight container). Cover with the lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
5. When it's ready, remove from the refrigerator and scoop into bowls (or eat it straight from the jar!).
6. Top with chopped nuts, additional berries, etc. You can enjoy the oatmeal as a cold cereal or warm it up. Store leftover oats in the mason jar (or other airtight container) in the refrigerator.
