Oats Overnight



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried or use daily Oats Overnight? It looks interesting but does have some sugars and carb.. Good with Protein though.

Great!

I am asking about a specific company named "Oats Overnight". But thank you for your response.

Being a low processed whole grain, oats are usually considered an ok addition to your diet (good carbs & fibre) but check with your dietician. I was allowed instant rolled oats in purée & then transitioned to traditional oats in solid foods.

The added sugar content in Oats Overnight would bother me: the amount & it would’ve tasted too sweet to me then & now. As Lisa was suggesting, traditional oats you prep yourself would probably be a better option as you’re controlling the ingredients . I have them every day, add a dessertspoon of mixed seeds & blueberries. Because I make it on milk I get about 15g of Protein & no added sugar (the naturally occurring sugar in the milk & fruit doesn’t count & provides ample sweetness). It takes a couple of minutes to cook in the microwave. If you want more protein, add some Protein Powder.

Traditional oats can be prepped in the fridge in the exact same way as the Oats Overnight if it was the ‘convenience’ of the product that appealed.

I wouldn't go the route of ordering them from a pouch. They're overpriced imo. I'd make them myself at home, so that I could customize the flavors to my liking. You can find a ton of recipes online, tips and suggestions.

Best wishes!

I haven’t tried them but if you like the sweetness of that brand you could always add a little Splenda to regular oats (if you do artificial sweeteners).

Rather than buying he premade, it's easy to make your own. Just old fashion oats in a dish/jar overnight. You can use Protein powder to flavor it. to skip the sugar.

Oats aren't something I eat very often, and I've never tried overnight oats, but when I do eat oats, I like the steel cut variety. When my son lived at home still, I used to make a huge batch on the weekend that I could just warm up for him each morning. Just toast them in a little butter or cooking spray to get a toasty flavor, then add milk and Water and whatever spices you like. I used cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla and added Stevia to taste.

I did find an easy overnight steel cut recipe, if anyone is interested.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
