USANA Test Kitchen: Chilled Pumpkin Oatmeal

Having a type-A personality, I hate being late—and nothing stresses me out faster than when I’m running behind for work. Luckily, I never have to worry about breakfast slowing me down because it’s waiting for me in the refrigerator. Twice a week, I make two Mason jars of Chilled Pumpkin Oatmeal.

USANA Test Kitchen: Rev3 Chicken Fajitas
