Fridge Oatmeal....Peanutbutter Banana.. make a head breakfast

I'm super excited to try this recipe. I have my mason jars all ready to go. I have my oatmeal, my bananas, honey.... I need to go to the Grocery store (WAAAHHH) for the rest. But I think this is going to be a new favorite breakfast. The fact that I can make it ahead fantastic.  I'll let you know what I think about it. There is also a recipe for Chocolate peanut butter or chocolate banana WOW healthy and I am betting yummykins.
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup uncooked old fashioned oats
  • 1/3 cup skim milk
  • 1/4 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter (may substitute PB2 powdered peanut butter)
  • 1 teaspoon honey, optional (or substitute any preferred sweetener)
  • 1/4 cup diced ripe banana, or enough to fill jar (approx. half of a small banana)

Directions
In a half pint (1 cup) jar, add oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, peanut butter (or PB2), and honey. Put lid on jar and shake until well combined. Remove lid, add bananas and stir until mixed throughout. Return lid to jar and refrigerate overnight or up to 2 days. Eat chilled.
