    If you're looking to switch up your overnight oats or chia seed pudding, this Overnight Flaxseed Breakfast is my new go to! It's got a delicious texture, is packed with nutrients, and sneaks in some cauliflower (that's right, cauliflower in the morning)! You can top it with whatever you'd like, but I suggest 3 toppings below!

    What is Flaxseed?

    Flaxseed has a mildly nutty flavor and is loaded with nutrients. It's a great source of fiber, B vitamins, copper, omega 3-fatty acids, and is great for your metabolism.

    You can easily get them at your nearest Whole Foods or even online at Amazon or other stores. I recommend getting ground flaxseed as it is more versatile and easier to throw in smoothies, or breakfasts, without even noticing. It's also a fantastic vegan egg replacement.

    Toppings

    Everyone knows it's all about the toppings. That's why you go to a serve your own fro-yo spot. It's why you make a weeks worth of overnight flaxseed breakfasts, so you can have diversity with each day without doing the work of making 4 completely different breakfasts.

    My top 3 recommendations so far (and feel free to add more recs in your review below):

    1. Vegan yogurt, cashew butter (the most elite of all nut butters in my opinion), and cinnamon.

    2. Fruit! You can't go wrong with fresh fruit like blueberries and raspberries.

    3. Chocolate nut. Mix in some cocoa powder to the flaxseed mixture then add your favorite nuts and a few dark chocolate chips.

    I love having a variety of flavors because the bases are the same, and yet each day feels like a completely different breakfast.
