Instructions
🥭 Step 1: Mixing the Tropical Blend
- - 🌴 Gather the tropical crew: 1 cup of gluten-free rolled oats, 2 teaspoons of chia seeds, 1 cup of light coconut milk, and a creamy ¼ cup of non-dairy yogurt. Sweeten the mix with 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, a pinch of salt, and a splash of magical 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Mix it like a wizard conjuring a potion!
🥭 Step 2: Filling Up the Jars
- - ✨ Hands-on alert! Grab 8-ounce jars, your breakfast canvases. Spoon the delightful oat mixture halfway, creating the first layer of your tasty tower. It's like the canvas awaiting an artist's touch.
🥭 Step 3: The Mango Magic
- - 🥭 Let the mango dance begin! Sprinkle ⅔ cup of chopped mango pieces (about 2 tablespoons each) into the jars. Gently pour the remaining oat mixture on top, covering your mango treasure. Finish with a little extra mango on the very top, like the crescendo of a tropical symphony!
🥭 Step 4: Seal the Treasure
- - 🔒 Secure the treasure! Screw on the jar lids or tightly cover them with plastic wrap, sealing the jar like a pirate guarding a chest of gold.
🥭 Step 5: The Wait is Worth It
