Equipment

  • 1 Glass Container

Ingredients
  

  • ⅓ Cup Quick Oats
  • 2 Tablespoons Vanilla Protein Powder: I used Garden of Life 100% Whey Protein
  • 2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 1 Teaspoon Brown Sugar
  • ½ Teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 Cup Milk of Choice
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

For the Topping

  • 1 Tablespoon Low Fat Cream Cheese
  • 3 Tablespoons Non- Fat Greek Yogurt Plain
  • ½ Teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste I got mine from Trader Joe's
  • ½ Teaspoon Brown Sugar
  • ¼ Teaspoon Cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Add your dry ingredients (quick oats, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, brown sugar and cinnamon) to a meal prep friendly container. Give it a stir with a small whisk until everything is well combined.
  • Next, add in your milk of choice followed by your vanilla extract. Using the whisk, mix again thoroughly until everything is well combined. Make sure to check the sides of your container to make sure that the chia seeds are not stuck onto the sides.
  • Place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight (preferably).
  • Once your overnight oats are in the fridge, make your topping by combining your greek yogurt, cream cheese, vanilla bean paste, and brown sugar in a small bowl. Whisk until everything is well combined and the cream cheese is evenly distributed into the mixture. Spoon over the top of your overnight oats mixture when you are ready to serve in the morning and top with some additional cinnamon to garnish. Enjoy!
  • Hint: If you are running low on time and don't mind the topping getting mixed throughout your oats, you can spoon your mixture on top of the overnight oats before they firm up. Top them with cinnamon and place in the fridge overnight so you can grab and go in the morning.
