Ingredients

0.5 cup gluten-free rolled oats

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)

0.5 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

0.25 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)

1 tablespoon peanut butter (or nut butter of choice)

1 teaspoon maple syrup (optional)

0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

0.25 cup sliced strawberries or fruit of choice

Instructions

1. Combine oats, chia seeds, and protein powder in a mason jar or sealable container. Mix well.

2. Pour in almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly to combine.

3. Add peanut butter. Either stir it in fully or leave it swirled for extra flavor pockets.

4. Seal the container and refrigerate overnight (minimum 6 hours).

5. In the morning, stir the oats well. Add sliced strawberries or your preferred toppings.

6. Enjoy cold or heat in the microwave for a warm breakfast option.

7. Make multiple jars ahead for a ready-to-go meal throughout the week.

Notes

Use rolled oats, not quick oats, for the best texture.

Stir protein powder thoroughly to avoid clumps.

Add fruit just before serving to keep everything fresh.
