Why Overnight Oats for Protein?

Traditional overnight oats are carb-heavy and low in protein. This version uses Greek yogurt, protein powder, and chia seeds to transform a simple breakfast into a macro-friendly powerhouse. The oats absorb the liquid overnight, creating a creamy, pudding-like texture that tastes like dessert.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (25g protein)
• 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of cinnamon
• Toppings: sliced banana, berries, almond butter, granola

Instructions

1. Combine oats, protein powder, chia seeds, and cinnamon in a jar or container.
2. Add Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, and vanilla extract.
3. Stir everything together until well combined with no lumps.
4. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
5. In the morning, stir once more. Add a splash of milk if too thick.
6. Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy cold.
