Notes
- You may use quick oats in a pinch but I much prefer rolled oats when making overnight oats
- Peanut butter: I love the taste of peanut butter but feel free to use any other nut butter
- Use honey or maple syrup. Even agave works.
- Protein powder: any protein powder will work. Plant-based or any flavor of choice. You may skip the protein powder for more yogurt.
- If you choose to skip the protein powder, swap it with 1/4 cup yogurt** You may also substitute this with 2-3 tablespoons of chia seeds
- Berries: any berries or fruit of choice will work.
- milk: served best when using 2% milk. But you may use any milk like almond milk.
