I don’t like rushing my breakfast the morning. In fact, doing so completely sets me off balance for the rest of the day. So I try to make some of my morning decisions the night before, to allow me to soak-in those few breakfast minutes with my family. Sometimes, this means making breakfast in its entirety.

As avid oatmeal eaters, my family and I like to switch-up the flavours to keep things interesting. Playing on one of the most popular recipes on the blog for overnight oats, I created today’s recipe for Blueberry Coconut Overnight Oats with coconut milk, for a creamy and flavourful twist.
