This overnight protein oatmeal is one of the easiest, yummiest, and well-balanced breakfasts that can be thrown together the night before and is ready when you are in the morning. There is no longer any excuse for not eating a delicious and satisfying breakfast, no matter how busy your mornings are!
Ingredients
1 cupย Unsweetened almond milk (or low fat milk of choice)
1/2 cupย Plain low fat Greek yogurt (or mashed banana, applesauce, or pumpkin)
2 tbsย Unsweetened cocoa powder (or more, to taste)
1/8 tspย Salt
2-4ย tbs sweetener that measures like sugar (to taste)
1 cupย Old fashioned oats
1/4 cupย Protein powder (or additional oats)
Method
In a small bowl, mix all of the ingredients together. Divide between 2 small bowls, mugs, or mason jars.
