Earlier this week, I wrote a blog post about a solution to your breakfast problem when you tend to be busy and rushed in the morning. This solution was Overnight Oats! I explained what they are, why they are good for you, and how to prepare them (if you haven't gotten a chance to check that post out, please click here!).

**Some people love to include their favorite protein powders (especially chocolate and vanilla flavors) in their overnight oat recipes.
I have received a lot of questions about my current protein powder so I figured I would give some information in this post!Â
I have been using Sun Warrior's Warrior Protein Blend as my protein powder for the past few years. I found that Whey protein bothers my stomach and makes me feel crappy (if you feel you may be having some issues with your Whey protein click here for my blog post on the subject to learn more), so I began using a Vegan protein source.
I have been so happy with Sun Warrior’s products that I have partnered with them in order to provide my loyal readers with a 15% discount on all of their products! You can use the link below or use the coupon code – UNLEASH. I am sure you will be happy with all of their products!
