Notes
If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a blender or simply dice the strawberries with a knife.If using a blender, be very careful that you don't make strawberry liquid. I guess that would still taste good, but you would lose the texture of the chunky berries.If using a knife, just dice the berries as small as possible. This will lead to chunkier oatmeal, but it is still delicious and may even become your personal preference!How to store overnight oats - You can keep these overnight oats in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container.
