Chia & Ashwagandha Overnight Oats

1.5 tsp. Organika “Mood” Ashwaganda Powder
½ tsp. cinnamon
1/3 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen will work)
Instructions
Place almond milk and banana in a blender and mix until well combined
Place the oats, chia,
Organika “Mood” Ashwaganda powder, and cinnamon in a 500mL mason jar
Add the almond milk/banana mixture to the mason jar, place lid on, and shake well
Put the mason jar with the lid on in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour. The mixture should be thick and the chia seeds should appear gelatinized before you remove from fridge.
