High-Protein Overnight Oats

🛒 Ingredients

• 1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

• 1/2 cup water

• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

• Pinch of salt

• 1 single-serve Greek yogurt (I like Fage or Oikos)

• 1 tbsp chia seeds

  Optional toppings:

• Fruit

• Nut butter or chopped nuts

• Honey or maple syrup

  🧑‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Mix Everything Together

  In a jar or sealable container, stir together the oats, water, cinnamon, salt, and Greek yogurt until well combined.

  2. Let It Chill

  Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight allowing the oats to soften and the flavors to meld.

  3. Top and Enjoy

  When ready to eat, give it a good stir and add your favorite toppings like berries, nut butter, or a drizzle of honey for added texture and flavor. Enjoy cold straight from the jar or transfer to a bowl. It’s a quick, protein-packed breakfast you can prep ahead for busy mornings.
