1/2 cup warm water
2.5 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 cup old fashioned oats , use certified gluten-free if needed or use a gluten-free muesli of choice
2 tbsp sunflower seeds or other seeds or chopped nuts optional
1 ripe mango cubed
2/3 cup non dairy milk
1/4 to 1/2 tsp ground turmeric , or use 1/2 inch peeled and grated turmeric root
pinch of salt
2 drops of vanilla
1 tbsp sugar , maple or sweetener of choice (or 3 dates)
Toppings: Fresh berries or mango or other chopped fruit seeds, nuts

Mix the chia seeds in the water (or use orange juice). let sit to thicken for 15 mins, then spread at the bottom of the serving jars.
Toast the oats and sunflower seeds or nuts on a skillet over medium heat. Stir frequently. 2-3 mins. (You can skip the roasting if you like to keep the oats and nuts untoasted or just toast the nuts/seeds). Add to the jars.
Blend the mango with the non dairy milk, turmeric, salt and vanilla, sugar/sweetener until smooth.
Pour the mango mixture into the jars and mix lightly to combine with the oats.
Let the mixture chill overnight. Top with fresh fruits such as blueberries, raspberries, and other toppings such as coconut, chia seeds and serve.

You can mix the dry chia seeds into the oats mixture. Blend 1 cup total non dairy milk with mango and mix in.

For these mango oats, I like more mango in the oatmeal than the oats (who doesnt :)), adjust the liquid, less or more to preference.

Mango Pulp: If using canned or bottled mango pulp, use 1/2 to 3/4 cup pulp and 1/2 cup non dairy milk.

Variation: Use 1/2 cup non dairy yogurt and 1/4 cup non dairy milk instead of 2/3 cup non dairy milk to make mango lassi overnight oats.
