Ingredients

Scale

Oats and Liquid Base

  • 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • Optional: 1/4-1/2 cup water (if mixture is very thick)

Dairy and Seeds

  • 1 cup strawberry Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

Fruits and Add-ins

  • 3/4 cup diced strawberries (fresh or frozen)
  • Optional: 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a pint-sized mason jar or airtight container, add the oats, milk, strawberry Greek yogurt, chia seeds, diced strawberries, and protein powder if using. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
  2. Refrigerate: Seal the jar or container and place it in the refrigerator overnight or for at least two hours. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and soften for a creamy texture.
  3. Serve: In the morning, give the oats a good stir. If the mixture is too thick, add a little water or milk to loosen it up. Enjoy chilled, directly from the jar or poured into a bowl.

Notes

  • For a vegan alternative, substitute milk with almond or oat milk and use a plant-based yogurt.
  • You can swap strawberries with other berries or fruits based on preference or seasonality.
  • Adjust the thickness by varying the amount of milk or water to suit your liking.
  • The recipe can be doubled or halved to accommodate different serving sizes.
  • Preparing multiple jars at once makes for convenient grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
