Getting up and ready for the day can take enough time without worrying about making a healthy breakfast. But you need something to rev the metabolism for your coming workout. An overnight oat breakfast plan might save your life.

I love these recipes because I can take them with me on the go. You can choose to eat them cold on the run or heat them up in the microwave to enjoy with a cup of coffee at home.

You can add or tweak the recipe to fit your tastes, but here are four options for a hearty, healthy, and protein-packed breakfast.
