My hubs absolutely loves these chocolate & coffee overnight oats. And why wouldn’t he?!? I mean, we’re talking two of the world’s best things combined into one nutritious-and-delicious breakfast bowl!

Better still, this easy, make-ahead meal delivers loads of micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants) along with fibre, healthy fats, protein, and adaptogens, too!

Ingredients for 2 servings:
