Do a little prep tonight to start your week off right with this delicious mason-jar parfait from @mipstickyvette!⁠
⁠
It’s easy to prepare the night before and can be packed with a lid to go. With both slow-release carbohydrates (such as the oats) and fruit (like the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant rich berries), this fills a runner’s energy needs!⁠
⁠
1st Layer⁠
• ½ cup quick oats or previously cooked steel cut oats*⁠
• ½ cup almond or coconut milk⁠
• 2 Tbsp. chia or ground flax seeds⁠
• drizzle of pure maple syrup, if desired for added sweetness⁠
⁠
2nd Layer⁠
• 2 Tbsp. shredded coconut⁠
• 2 Tbsp. chopped raw nuts or seeds⁠
⁠
3rd Layer⁠
• ¼ – ½ cup fresh or frozen berries⁠
• A sprig of fresh mint for garnish⁠
⁠
Prepare the night before, then enjoy!⁠
⁠
*Food prep tip: Steel cut oats are less processed than quick oats, have higher fibre and mineral content, but take longer to cook. Cook a large batch every few days and leave in a sealed container in the fridge for quick use in smoothies and breakfast parfaits. Oat fibre helps stabilize blood sugars and enhance immunity.⁠

At the age of 18, Kyla Fox (@kylafoxrecovery) was

At the age of 18, Kyla Fox (@kylafoxrecovery) was in a life-threatening battle with the eating disorder that had taken control of her every move and thought. The prison of her mind, she said, would keep her locked in deadly patterns of food restriction, binging, purging and addicted to over-exercising for a number of years.⁠
⁠
These behaviours would take a serious toll on her body and mind, causing fainting spells, brain fog, blurred vision, changes in her hearing, and varying levels of numbness. But, it wouldn’t be until the symptoms became life threatening that she realized something needed to change.⁠
