Notes

Meal Prep & Storage

- To prep and store: The beauty of this dish is how easy it is to whip up the day before. It will keep for up to 3 to 4 days in the fridge, but it is best enjoyed within 24 hours. After this time, it will start to get mushy. You can, however, combine everything except for the milk, then add that the night before serving to ensure a fresh and creamy oatmeal.

- To freeze: Freezing is not recommended as the texture won't be the same. It will get too watery.
