Notes

You can make multiple jars at once for the whole week. Just store them in airtight containers. Feel free to customize your oats with different berries, nuts, or sweeteners based on preference. If you use frozen berries, they can be added directly without thawing; they will soften overnight. The breakfast can be enjoyed cold or heated in the microwave for a warm treat. If you experience digestive discomfort, start with fewer chia seeds and gradually increase the amount as your body adjusts.
