PB&J Plantain Chia-Oats
PB&J Plantain Chia-Oats
We love making this creamy overnight chia-oats and play with different flavors and textures. This is a great make-ahead protein-packed breakfast that will absolutely keep you full all morning. A hearty, on-the-go breakfast option for busy mornings. This creation was created because we love PB&J and banana. Enhancing the flavor with grilled plantains. Instead of using jelly, we used a fresh chopped strawberries. Great flavors and good source of protein and omega.
Chia seeds have been a staple in Mayan and Aztec diets for centuries. Now they are so popular and easy to find, we incorporated chia in a lot of our recipes.
