  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)
  • ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or your preferred flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon nut butter (almond, peanut, or your choice)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup fresh or frozen berries (blueberries, strawberries, or your choice)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Instructions

  • Add the fresh or frozen berries on top of the oat mixture.
  • If desired, drizzle honey or maple syrup over the top for added sweetness.
  • Cover the jar or container with the lid and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld together.
  • In the morning, give the oats a good stir before enjoying. You can eat them cold or warm them up in the microwave if you prefer.350
