- STORAGE: Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Perfect for meal prep for the week!
- SWEETENER: Instead of Agave, you can simply use maple syrup throughout entire recipe.
- OVERNIGHT OPTION: Follow steps and then tightly cover individual bowls with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or at least 8 hours). Remove from the fridge when ready to use and assemble.
- TOASTED NUTS: Add chopped pecans/walnuts to a baking sheet and toasting them in the oven (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for 5-10 minutes, tossing them halfway to avoid browning on one side.
