Naked Oats Over Night Oatmeal Review

 

As a busy Mom, I am always looking for quick breakfast solutions for myself. Even better if they are portable. I love overnight oats and was really excited to hear that Naked Nutrition now has Naked Oats to combine the ease of overnight oats with healthy ingredients and protein.

Honestly, I love versatile products and I love that you can either make a quick shake on a hectic morning or opt for overnight oats because I do forget to put them together at night sometimes and then have no breakfast options. I wish you could smell the Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Naked Oats. It smells so delicious already when you open the container.

Definitely the winner of the two flavors was Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana flavored Naked Oats because it smells and taste like a treat and not a health shake. And well, it is super kid friendly. 

But, I still really enjoy Cinnamon Roll flavored Naked Oats for it’s - you guessed it - versatility. I love adding frozen fruit to it and it pretty much goes with everything in the fridge. Did I mention how delicious they smell? 

All you do is scoop two scoops of Naked Nutrition Oats into either a shaker for a quick shake or an overnight oats meal container (I love these glass ones) and top with 8 oz of milk. Any milk works. We have tried regular milk and Almond milk and the oatmeal came out great.

Mix or shake and place in the fridge overnight. I shake mine once I combine the oats and milk.

Did I mention that these containers stack? In the fridge they go and in the morning you have a nutritious breakfast you (or your family) actually want to eat. These are great on the go as well!

Don’t these just look delicious? 

The absolute favorite was definitely Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Naked Oats with fresh bananas and chocolate chunks. Two scoops have:

• 270 calories
• 20g of Protein
• 5 g of sugar 
• 9g of fiber

But, a very close second was the Cinnamon Roll Naked Oats. Two scoops have:

• 240 calories
• 20g of Protein
• 2 g of sugar 
• 6g of fiber
  

Overall, we really enjoyed trying the new Naked Nutrition Naked Oats. They also have a third flavor: Green Apple Cinnamon flavored Naked Oats and after trying the other two, I will order this flavor next!

Lunch for Mama

I haven't made myself lunch in a long time but we have a team meeting today for a non-profit that I volunteer with and it is BYOL (Bring Your Own Lunch). I wanted to think a little outside the box and pack something light but filling.

I used my Easylunchboxes and packed:

• almonds
• Larabar Bites
• carrot sticks
• an egg with salt and pepper
• cheese cubes
• and two mini cream cheese bagels

I am so glad I packed a large lunch because I had no time for breakfast and was able to eat breakfast and lunch thanks to packing food!

What's your favorite to-go food?

Day 6: Belgian Waffles for Lunch

Today is our last day of the "No Peanut Butter" Challenge and I have to say that it was indeed challenging but the kids and I also had a lot of fun discovering foods they like and working together as a team on deciding what's for lunch. I definitely will continue to have them involved in their lunch packing even if occasionally a peanut butter sandwich sneeks back in :)

But, without further ado, here is our lunch from today:

We packed grapes and blueberries, a clementine and waffles with syrup. Today they also brought Orange juice to drink and a yogurt for lunch to complete the breakfast for lunch. 

Very simple but perfect for a Friday Lunch!

Lunch is packed in our favorite Easylunchboxes with an Easylunchboxes Mini Dipper to hold the syrup and we also added a fun Lunchbox Love Note to make their day brighter.

Have a wonderful Weekend!
