Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats

Here in the Detroit area, we have an amazing zoo, perhaps one of the best in the nation.  They have just about every animal you want to see, including a recently built penguin center that is state of the art.  We went last year right before Thanksgiving on a super nice day and loved every moment.  They also have Wild Lights, a Christmas light display that everyone raves about.

In addition to the zoo, we have a Sea Life Aquarium.  We visited there last year as well, and it blew us away.  The fish and turtles and octopus and starfish.  It was a delight and we would love to go back and pay the Belle Isle Aquarium a visit.

Here’s the thing about zoos and aquariums: tickets can be incredibly expensive, and for many families they are an unnecessary indulgence.  That’s really unfortunate because zoos and aquariums offer a chance for kids to be … well … kids, having fun and learning at the same time.  Learning is best when it’s the sneaky sidekick to having a blast.

Stonyfield, the country’s leading organic yogurt maker, is partnering with the Boys and Girls Club of America for the #FutureLeaders campaign.  The Boys and Girls Club is such a great organization and we supported them by going to Taste of Troy earlier this year.  It was super fun and all for a great cause.

The #FutureLeaders campaign is all about giving kids the chance to visit zoos and aquariums.  Stonyfield is matching donations to the #FutureLeaders campaign up to $125,000 with the goal of raising $250,000.  This donation is the latest milestone in Stonyfield’s support of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ (AZA) SAFE: Saving Animals From Extinction(R) program, which fosters conservation efforts for 10 endangered species.

I’m proud to be supporting Stonyfield’s initiative and love that they want to help America’s youth.

It also happens that Stonyfield yogurt is amazing!  And it’s better for way more than eating right out of the container, though it’s pretty hard to resist in its original form.  The yogurt is the star of Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats.  This easy to make, gluten free breakfast is packed with flavor and nutrition.

Disclaimer: I was compensated by Stonyfield, but all opinions, as always, are mine.

    The nights are definitely cold these days, which means chilly mornings. Which means hot oatmeal is a MUST to warm us up! This looks terrific — full of flavor, and easy. Score! Thanks so much.

    I love this recipe! I have never had Stonyfield yogurt before so I will try it. How nice that they are donating to a great cause. Our Cincinnati Zoo, which you have been to a few times when you were a little girl, it a great zoo as well. Everyone is wild about our baby hippo born on January 24. She is thriving now but her father just died….. We were all very sad about that. When our friend from the Dominican Republic came to visit, I took her to the zoo. We fed the giraffes and walked around for hours. I love the zoo!

      I just saw on the news that the baby hippo photobombed a couple getting engaged at the zoo. It was so cute!

    I made it this evening! I’m excited for breakfast. Didn’t use Stonyfield tho. I had regular Greek yoghurt so I used 1 1/2 tsp of maple syrup to sweeten it. Thanks!

      Regular Greek yogurt will work just fine. I’m glad you enjoyed!!

Still can't believe I got to meet Bryan Cranston a Still can't believe I got to meet Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul last night!  I'm a huge fan of both of them after watching Breaking Bad, and I love Dos Hombres mezcal 🍹  They are super nice guys and took their time chatting and taking photos with everyone there. I'm so thrilled I got to attend this event and that it was at the Waldorf, one of my favorite places 🌴💚 The signed and engraved bottle is a fabulous keepsake from an unforgettable evening ✨️
