We've tried overnight oats, but never with flaxseed. Flaxseed is very nutritious and packed with fiber and Omega-3 essential fatty acids. It has a nutty flavor and, besides its health benefits, adds a nuttiness to the oatmeal. Strawberries and honey sweeten up the oatmeal. Delicious and creamy, it's a simple breakfast. We used whole milk, but skim, soy or almond milk can be used. While this is perfectly good cold, you can pop it in the microwave and it would be yummy too. We found this to be a lot for one serving. It can easily be divided into two containers.
