This is the perfect breakfast if your mornings tend to be hectic and hurried. These take just a couple of minutes to make the night before and then they are ready to go in the morning. As always, the options are endless. You can add more milk if you prefer this more thinned out or more chia seeds if you prefer a thicker consistency. You can add ground flaxseed in place of hemp hearts, add a few tbsp of toasted nuts or seeds, omit any of the above ingredients if you don’t have them at home. This is a real hit in our house.
