Pro tip: In order to save time, you can prepare the base recipe in bulk and portion it out for the week. The longer it stays in the fridge, the better. I usually make 3 nights in a row as I don’t have enough containers for it. Each morning, pull one out, then add your chosen toppings fresh. By having different toppings, you get the best texture and variety in your breakfast routine.
