Notes

Mangos: I prefer using fresh, ripe mangos. If you use frozen, thaw them and then dice into bite size pieces. I've made this with both fresh and frozen and the fresh gives much better flavor.

Milk: Can use dairy milk, almond milk, or coconut milk.

Sweetener: I didn't include a sweetener because the ripe mangos are sweet and provide that sweetness factor. If it's not sweet enough for you add a splash of Stevia drops or stir in maple syrup or a teaspoon or so of brown sugar.

For a tropical oasis use coconut milk rather than almond milk and top the overnight oats with chopped macadamia nuts, shredded coconut, and pineapple!

If you want the overnight oats to last longer, make the oats without the mango, then add the fruit the night before or the morning of. However, the flavor permeates much better when the fresh mangos have been stirred into the oats and they've had a chance to sit for several hours, or overnight. However, still tastes delicious if you add them the morning of and mix them in last minute.

Best if eaten within 2 days of making it.
