The first time I had cold overnight oats, I was rather confused as it tasted very much like a pudding dessert. When I started experimenting with the different toppings and layering, I was so exhilarated and happy because I can finally eat desserts without feeling guilty anymore! 😀 Overnight oats is basically a no-cook method of making oatmeal.

HEAVENLY Green Smoothie
It’s a little difficult to be sharing this recipe because this is my own FAVOURITE green smoothie but the more you give, the richer you feel – right? ☺ There is something quite unique about me- I have never been on a diet before.
