Now I am older and have my own children sitting around the table. Now it is an affordable and healthy breakfast option for my family.

Nowadays, it can be tough to get my family to eat a nutritious breakfast. We have very busy schedules and demanding late nights. That is why this recipe for Skinny Lemon Poppy Seed Overnight Oats is perfect for my family.

    This would be an awesome weekday morning breakfast for my boyfriend. We start our day at 3:30a.m. and I never feel like cooking. He usually heads out the door with cold cereal in his belly, but lately he’s been asking for a hot breakfast. This might do the trick without making me have to get up even earlier.
