Notes
Make ahead and store refrigerated for 4-5 days.
Overnight oats version: Substitute milk for water and mix all ingredients together. Rest refrigerated overnight and serve with mangoes. Makes a delicious breakfast, snack, or dessert!
Microwave: Combine half the oats, water, and a pinch of salt. Microwave for 2 minutes until cooked through. Watch to make sure it doesn't boil over! I like to put a plate under the bowl just in case to catch any boiled over oats.
