Breakfast is the most important meal and yet, it is often the meal that I don’t prep. If you’re like me and are looking for something that you can prep ahead of time for breakfast or if you’re looking for a healthy snack idea for your kids, you should definitely try out this recipe. I made it the other day and was surprised by how quick and easy it is to make. You can also freeze the oatmeal cups for up to three months.
