Mason Jar Oatmeal

These take and go jars are so simple to put together...and kids will love to help!  Whip up a bunch of these at the beginning of the week and store them in the fridge for a breakfast on the go!

The Basics:

• 6 oz mason jars (or the smaller ones if you like a smaller portion)
• 1/4 cup quick oats
• 1/4 cup milk (any kind will do)
• 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (I find plain yogurt is best, especially with all the add ins...but add what you like)

Add ins:

• fruit
• dried fruit
• nuts
• chocolate chips
• granola
• peanut butter
• nutella

Sweet or Savory:

• maple syrup
• agave
• cinnamon & sugar
• pinch of salt

Add all the "basic" ingredients into a mason jar and add in any additional "add ins".  Place in the fridge overnight or at least 6 hours for oatmeal to set.  Enjoy the next morning cold or heat in the microwave for about 1 minute if desired :)
