Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup strawberry Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 3/4 cup diced strawberries (fresh or frozen)
Optional Ingredients
- 1/4-1/2 cup water if mixture is very thick
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a pint-sized mason jar or airtight container, mix together the old-fashioned oats, milk, strawberry Greek yogurt, chia seeds, diced strawberries, and if using, the vanilla protein powder.
- Adjust consistency: If the mixture appears too thick, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water to achieve your desired consistency and stir well.
- Refrigerate overnight: Seal the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least two hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften.
- Serve and enjoy: In the morning, give the oats a good stir, add any additional toppings if desired, and enjoy your ready-to-eat breakfast.
Notes
- For creamier oats, use full-fat milk or Greek yogurt.
- You can substitute dairy milk with almond, soy, or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
- Swap strawberries for other berries like blueberries or raspberries depending on preference.
- Protein powder is optional but adds extra protein for a more filling meal.
- Overnight oats can be prepared up to 2 days in advance for convenience.
