Eating a healthy, filling breakfast is one of the best ways to start your day. “Oats are a slow carb which means they contain fiber and digest slowly, providing you with consistent energy to last you throughout the morning,” Daily Harvest‘s Nutrition Partner, Amy Shapiro MS, RD, CDN, tells SheFinds. “Paired correctly they can keep you energized, hydrated, and satisfied for hours.”

If you are aiming to lose weight, the smartest way to go about it is by making sustainable lifestyle changes — and eating more filling, nutritious foods is a good start. Although that can seem like an intimidating goal, overnight oats can make it much more attainable. They are easy to prepare and can last in your fridge for up to 4 days, making them a simple breakfast option that will keep you full all morning.
