Recipe Notes

While I love the combination of orange and vanilla in these oats, I really want to try this recipe with chopped strawberries in place of the orange and low sugar strawberry preserves (or spreadable fruit) in place of marmalade. I think it will taste just like strawberries and cream.

It would also be delicious made with fresh chopped mango, apricot, kiwi or pineapple and your favorite low sugar spreadable fruit preserves.

Try substituting chopped canned unsweetened mandarin orange segments for the fresh orange, if desired.

Remember to adjust your WW Points accordingly when making any recipe ingredient substitutions.

Chia seeds play a role in supporting multiple body functions and systems as they are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, fiber and minerals.
