CHOCOLATE OVERNIGHT PROTEIN "ZOATS"

CHOCOLATE OVERNIGHT PROTEIN "ZOATS"

I am a big fan of overnight oats.  I am also a big fan of getting in some veggies at brekkie.  So zucchini oats or “zoats” are win win in my books. Especially when they’re packed with chocolatey goodness along with loads of antioxidants, fibre, healthy fats, protein, pre and probiotics, and adaptogens, too!

Tender, moist, slightly earthy and sweet with those wonderful notes of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg & cloves.
