Ingredients

  • Chia Seeds - Could have guessed that one right? You will need 2 tablespoons of organic chia seeds. I like these ones off of Amazon or these ones by Prozis. You can use the code KATIE10 for 10% off at Prozis.
  • Lemon - 2 teaspoons or so of fresh lemon juice.
  • Almond Milk - I used 1/2 cup of unsweetened vanilla flavored almond milk. You can use any kind of milk you would like though, such at oat milk.
  • Protein Powder - 15 grams of your favorite protein powder I the Prozis Organic Blueberry Muffin Protein Powder. You can actually use the same code “KATIE10″ for 10% off!
  • Greek Yogurt - Use 1/4 cup of plain, non-fat Greek yogurt for added protein and creaminess!
  • Blueberries - 1/8 cup fresh blueberries
  • Sugar Free Maple Syrup - 1 teaspoon.

How To Make

  1. Combine the chia seeds, milk, lemon juice to taste, & protein. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Make blueberry topping on stovetop by heating up the blueberries, 1 tsp lemon juice, & syrup. Mash slightly to make it jammy.
  3. Top your chia pudding with yogurt, blueberries, and toppings of choice. I added some homemade granola, honey, and sunflower seeds.

Why Is Consuming Protein Important?

  • Protein is nutrient-rich, so it helps you stay fuller longer. You are more likely to eat less when you have high protein meals because you won't have the munchies!
  • It boosts your metabolism & increases fat burning.
  • It increases muscles & strength. If you are lifting weights and not eating enough protein, you aren;t going to see much of a difference!
  • It lowers your blood pressure.

Optional Toppings/Substitutions

As I mentioned above, overnight oats are extremely customizable. Here are some optional add ins/substitutions:

  • Almond Milk - Use any milk of choice. I would recommend doing an unsweetened non-dairy milk of some sort though to keep the calories low and have no added sugar.
  • Stevia/Swerve – If you want to add a little sweetness, you can use any zero calorie sweetener that you prefer. You can purchase Swerve off of Amazon here. I personally did not add any because I drizzled honey on top instead!
  • Protein Powder - You can substitute any flavor & type of protein powder that you prefer. I personally used the Prozis Organic Blueberry Muffin Protein Powder. Don't like/want protein powder? You can completely omit it and just use a little less liquid so your oats aren't watery.
  • Nuts and/or Granola - Top your oats off with nuts and/or granola for a little bit of a crunch!

How Long Do Overnight Oats Stay Good For?

You can keep your overnight oats in the fridge for up to 3 days. When I am meal prepping these, I will make 3 days worth in advance so I am not spending much time in the kitchen during the week!
