Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
  • 1 pinch lemon zest

Instructions:

  1. Whisk the liquids. Pour the 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk and 1/4 cup non fat plain Greek yogurt into your jar.
  2. Add flavor. Stir in the 1 teaspoon maple syrup and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract until the syrup is fully dissolved.
  3. Incorporate the seeds. Add the 1 tablespoon chia seeds and stir vigorously for 30 seconds. Note: This prevents the seeds from clumping together into a gel ball.
  4. Fold in the grains. Add the 1/2 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats and stir until every oat is submerged and coated.
  5. Brighten it up. Grate a 1 pinch lemon zest directly over the mixture and give it one final, gentle stir.
  6. Layer the fruit. Top the mixture with 1/2 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries).
  7. Seal and chill. Close the lid tightly and place in the fridge for at least 6 hours.
  8. The morning check. Before eating, give it a quick stir. You should see a thick, pudding like consistency that clings to the spoon.
