Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

2 tablespoons Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 tablespoon natural peanut butter or almond butter

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)

1/2 banana, sliced (for topping)

1 tablespoon chopped nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts, for topping)

Fresh berries (blueberries or strawberries, for topping)

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized mixing bowl or jar, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, and vanilla protein powder. Mix well until the protein powder is fully incorporated into the milk.

    Add the Greek yogurt and chia seeds to the mixture. Stir until everything is well blended.

      For added creaminess and flavor, mix in the peanut butter (or almond butter) until smooth. If you prefer a sweeter taste, drizzle in honey or maple syrup at this stage.

        Once all ingredients are combined, divide the mixture evenly into two jars or containers with lids.

          Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate them overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to soak up the liquid and flavors.

            In the morning, give the oats a good stir. Top with banana slices, chopped nuts, and fresh berries for an extra nutritional boost and delightful taste.

              Enjoy cold straight from the jar or warm it up in the microwave if you prefer it heated!
