Peanut Butter & Jelly Overnight Oats (and My Favorite Things Giveaway)
PIN IT!These creamy peanut butter and jelly overnight oats are the perfect dish to make when you don’t have time but want a healthy breakfast! Plus, who doesn’t love peanut butter and jelly?
When the dog bites, when the bee stings, When I’m feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite things, And then I don’t feel so bad! Name one person who doesn’t instantly feel better when they hear that song. No matter how crummy of a day I’m having, that song brings a little crooked smile to my face and I feel just a bit better. Which is why I’m hosting a fun little giveaway to the tune of my favorite bad day song.
But before we get to those amazing goodies, let’s talk about overnight oats for a second. If you’ve been reading for a while, you may notice that I sort of have an obsession with overnight oats and quinoa. Blueberry, banana, coconut, pear…I probably have an overnight oats recipe in almost every flavor possible. What can I say, I’m absolutely obsessed. Maybe it’s because of my addiction to peanut butter, but these overnight oats are easily my favorite.
I love these so much, I’m making them again tonight. I’m really bad at eating breakfast everyday and having a week’s worth of cereal made ahead of time makes it just a little easier to want to eat. Of course I’ll still dream of cinnamon rolls, but I don’t think anything will stop that.

NOW, for the giveaway!! I’m so excited about this one, you guys. Since we’re experiencing another polar vortex next week (18 degrees as a HIGH? Ugh please) I thought it would be the perfect time to giveaway a few of my winter essentials! Let’s start with the foodie stuff 🙂
The amazing folks at Crock-Pot are so incredibly generous, they are giving away one of their beautiful new crock-pots with a self-stirring timer. This baby is a GOD-SEND when it comes to making overnight oats. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve burnt my favorite oats because I forgot to stir mid-way. This will make any kind of slow-cooking an absolute breeze for you. To go with your slow cooker, I’m adding four Bob’s Red Mill bread mixes, because what goes better with a delicious slow-cooked stew than a big loaf of fresh bread? Now onto the cozy things 🙂
I’m throwing in two of my favorite winter accessories because I can’t survive winter without them. One of my good friends here in DC is an amazing crafter and she’s giving one lucky reader one of these soft, fluffy and incredibly adorable double-loop infinity scarves. I wear mine all day everyday because it’s the softest and coziest scarf I own. Check out her Etsy shop for more fabulous colors and products! I’m also adding in a pair of trendy boot socks. I just ordered two of these cute pairs from one of my favorite Etsy shops, and I can’t stop wearing them. So one of you lucky peeps will get a pair in any color you’d like!
Okay, so now, the fun part! To enter to win, simply fill out the prompts below! Giveaway ends February 2nd at midnight!
d love to give the scarf and leg warmers to my grand-daughter--they moved from Galveston,TX to Indianapolis---this is their first real Winter.

And the legwarmers are cute <3
PS... is ok to interchange steel-cut oats and rolled oats?
