Notes
[‘Rolled oats are ideal; avoid instant oats as they can turn mushy.’, ‘Taste the mixture before refrigerating and adjust sweetness as needed.’, ‘If making ahead, add strawberries just before serving to prevent them from getting soggy.’, ‘Add toppings like nuts, seeds, or nut butter for extra crunch and flavor.’, ‘If oats seem too thick in the morning, stir in a splash of milk to loosen them up.’]
