Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 565kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup quick oats
- 1 scoop vegan protein powder* use your favorite brand!
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground flaxseed
- 1- 1 ¼ cup non-dairy milk
- Optional: ⅓-1/2 small zucchini shredded (and minced if desired)
Instructions
- In a jar or bowl, mix together the dry ingredients, from the oats to the ground flaxseed.
- If using, prepare your zucchini by washing and shredding ⅓-1/2 of a small zucchini. I like to chop the shredded pieces into smaller pieces which closer mimic the size of oats. You can also omit the zucchini if you don't want to include it, you will just need to reduce the non-dairy milk to about 1 cup.
- Mix the zucchini into the dry ingredients and then pour in the non-dairy milk. Mix everything together until combined.
- Store the mixture in the fridge overnight which will allow it to thicken.
- In the morning, enjoy the overnight oats straight from the jar/bowl you prepared it in. You can also pour the oats into a bowl and add extra toppings like nut butter, fruit, granola, etc.
Notes
*You can use any flavor or brand of protein powder you like!
