Chia & Raspberry Overnight Oats

I'm still trying to avoid all sugary breakfast cereals. They don't fill you up, they're no good for you, and they don't keep you going throughout the morning. But I like some variety in life and these Overnight Oats are perfect.

Today I'm having Chia & Raspberry Overnight Oats with chopped nuts and grapes. I left the raspberries whole, but you could mush them up. The chia seeds are a great source of protein, fibre and omega-3 fatty acids. They also swell up overnight and make another great texture in this breakfast.

Breakfast Booster Smoothy

I'm struggling at the moment to find time. Time to eat in the morning! Organising three children to get out of the house for school leaves little time for food. I'm also trying to lose some of this extra baby weight that's hanging about, so I don't want to be skipping meals and then eating ten chocolate biscuits because I am starving. So a smoothy in the morning seems the perfect solution.

I took myself down to TK Maxx the other day to buy a travel cup with lid and straw that I can bung the smoothy in and head out of the door. I might also be doing this at lunch time if I can't find time for a nice sandwich.
