Overnight oats.

BASE - You’ll need 1/2 mashed banana, 100 ml of your milk of choice, 50 gr. of oats, 1/2 tbsp of brown sugar, optionally you can also use vanilla extract and any other spice you like.
In a jar or bowl, mash half banana, and stir in the sugar and oats. Once everything is mixed together very well, add the milk, and stir again. Let your oats refrigerate overnight. In the morning you can either eat it as it is, or heat it up for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave, and top with anything you fancy.

MOCHA - You’ll need 1/2 mashed banana, 100 ml of your milk of choice, 50 gr. of oats, 1/2 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of instant coffee powder, vanilla extract.
In a jar or bowl, mash half banana, and stir in the sugar and oats. In a glass or a cup, mix the milk with the instant coffee powder, and add it to the oats, stirring everything well. Let your oats refrigerate overnight. In the morning you can either eat it as it is, or heat it up for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave, and top with anything you fancy. My favourite toppings for this are berries, and walnuts.

CARROT CAKE - You’ll need 1/2 banana, 100 ml of your milk of choice, 50 gr. of oats, 1 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 medium carrot (peeled), cinnamon, ginger, raisins.
In a food processor, process the peeled carrot, the half banana, the sugar, and the spices until you get a creamy mixture. Move it in a jar or bowl, and add oats, raisins, and milk. Let your oats refrigerate overnight. In the morning you can either eat it as it is, or heat it up for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave, and top with anything you fancy.

CHOCOLATE - You’ll need 1/2 banana, 100 ml of your milk of choice, 50 gr. of oats, 1 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 or more cracked squares of chocolate, 1 tsp of cocoa powder, vanilla extract.
In a jar or bowl, mash half banana, and stir in the sugar, the cocoa powder, the cracked chocolate, and oats. Once everything is mixed together very well, add the milk, and stir again. Let your oats refrigerate overnight. In the morning you can either eat it as it is, or heat it up for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave, and top with anything you fancy. Strawberries and peanut butter are just perfect on this!

APPLE PIE - You’ll need 1/2 mashed banana, 100 ml of your milk of choice, 50 gr. of oats, 1/2 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 apple (half for the base, the rest for topping), cinnamon, vanilla extract, raisins.
In a food processor, process the half apple, the half banana, the sugar, vanilla extract, and the spices until you get a creamy mixture. Move it in a jar or bowl, and add oats, raisins, and milk. Let your oats refrigerate overnight. In the morning you can either eat it as it is, or heat it up for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave, and top with the other half of the apple and anything else you want.

MUESLI - You’ll need 1/2 mashed banana, 100 ml of your milk of choice, 60 gr. of your favourite muesli, cinnamon. 
In a jar or bowl, mash half banana, and stir in the muesli and cinnamon. Once everything is mixed together very well, add the milk, and stir again. Let the mixture refrigerate overnight. In the morning you can either eat it as it is, or heat it up for about 1-2 minutes in the microwave, and top with anything you fancy. 

If you love nut butters, you can add 1 tbsp of your favourite one in the jar before anything else, and melt it in the microwave. Then you can follow the recipe as you normally would, but your breakfast will get much creamier and tastier! 

these are absolutely fabulous

veganmovement2012: This is interesting. After reading this, you’ll never look at a banana in the same way again. Bananas contain three natural sugars -sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world’s leading athletes. But energy isn’t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet. DEPRESSION: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier. PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood. ANEMIA: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia. BLOOD PRESSURE: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit’s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke. BRAIN POWER: 200 students at a Twickenham school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packe d fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert. CONSTIPATION: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives. HANGOVERS: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system. HEARTBURN: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief. MORNING SICKNESS: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness. MOSQUITO BITES: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation. NERVES: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.. Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady. ULCERS: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach. TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Many other cultures see bananas as a ‘cooling’ fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature. So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, ‘A BANANA a day keeps the doctor away!’

genetics, don’t stress about how your abs look

Every time I see this I applaud it. that’s why one should never look at the magazines and say “I wanna look like that”. all you have to do is keep progressing as a person and as an athlete. not looking to your sides but forward.

I can’t wait to see the shape of my abs! I’m so curious. Diet is a bitch tho.
