Melon Berry Overnight Oatmeal

So,, um....watermelon is not the most photogenic fruit. Forgive me.


Okay, so the idea behind this recipe is that you can endlessly combine various berries and melons together. Here you see blueberry + watermelon, but how about raspberry + cantaloupe? Blackberry + honeydew? Strawberry + cool exotic melon from the farmer's market (have you ever had a lemon drop melon?!).


P.S. The next post for the fitness series will be next Saturday!
