Overnight oatmeal

This is a great breakfast dish! We had it several mornings last week with assorted berries, mangos, peaches, nectarines... every combination was good. I ended up not adding the vanilla or lemon zest everyday, but we did stir in honey for a little added sweetness.

serves 2:
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup milk (for skim milk, I found it was better to use only 3/4 cup so it wasn't too runny)
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons chopped nuts (pecans, almonds, walnuts)
1 peach, mango, nectarine, plum, or apricot, pitted and sliced
1 tablespoon honey

Combine oats, milk, zest, and vanilla in a glass measuring cup or bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning serve with fruit, nuts, and honey.
