A delicious, filling and good for you breakfast~




As with the recipe,
Overnight Steel Cut Oats with Dried Apricots,
this recipe makes a lot of oatmeal...
which is wonderful because
you can have oatmeal for breakfast all week long or
you can freeze it.
Yes, you read that right...
you can freeze oatmeal.


I like to freeze oatmeal in 8 oz size,
plastic freezer jars/containers by Ball.
These containers are used mainly to make freezer jam.


These handy Ball containers work the best for me.
They're stack-able, convenient and relatively inexpensive.
Plus, these containers are made for the freezer...
The serving size is just the right amount of oatmeal too.
