If you are like me, you like to sleep in so anything that makes the morning go a bit smoother is a bonus. This recipe is fantastic as you make it on Sunday and then you have ready to go DELICIOUS breakfast for the rest of the week (granted I only made it to Wednesday because it tastes so good, I was eating it as a snack).
