Four easy ingredients create a refreshing, protein-rich treat that the whole family will love. Perfect for healthy snacks and dessert-and they will pass for breakfast! Hot days call for cold treats.

This twist on the usual overnight oats is a deliciously satisfying way to use leftover quinoa and may be scaled up for grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.

Part of the reason I rely on quick and easy dinner recipes is because too much of my kitchen time is spent baking!
