This recipe is not only delicious, but it also provides a great balance of nutrients to keep you energized and full throughout the morning (you could add 1 tbs of chia seeds as well). The oats are a great source of complex carbohydrates and fiber, while the peanut butter provides healthy fats and protein. The chia seeds, if using also provide a boost of fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.

Next time you’re looking for a quick and easy breakfast option, give this peanut butter and jelly overnight oats recipe a try. It’s sure to become a new favorite!

With end of school and life business, May was actu With end of school and life business, May was actually a slower reading/listening month than I’ve had in a while. I read/listened to 4 books this month, and they were all romancy books 💕
Meet Me At The Lake - 5/5. I loved Carley Fortunes first book Every Summer After (one my favorites ever) and her next book did not disappoint. I liked it a smidge less than her first one, but it was an all around good book!
Yours Truly - 4/5. If you’ve ever had anxiety, this book does a great job of having characters with crippling anxiety and describes it well. I did feel like some of this was very repetitive and just wanted the story to move a little faster. And have the good parts be a little longer.
Romantic Comedy - 3.5/5. This book got a TON of hype and tbh I’m not quite sure it lived up to it, it didn’t for me. It was just ok!
The Spanish Love Deception - 4/5 – I thought this was super cute, but again, a little too long to get to the good part of the story, I had to skip a few beginning chapters, but overall cute!
Read my full review of these books in my latest blog post! ❤️
