Overnight oats are an easy breakfast option to prep the night before. Oats are super filling because of the fantastic fiber in there but this recipe also has a protein source that will also keep you full for hours. The Greek yogurt is a great source of probiotics, the good bacteria for your gut. Blue, red, & purple fruits & veggies like berries, apples, & red cabbage contain a polyphenol called Anthocyanin which give the produce those colors. Anthocyanins actually promote microbial diversity of GOOD bacteria & the anthocyanins from 2 cups of blueberries increase insulin sensitivity, lower visceral adipose tissue & improve satiety.
