Ingredients
Base Ingredients:
- ½ cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
- ½ cup milk (dairy, almond, or oat milk)
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1 tbsp chia seeds (for thickness + omega-3s)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Strawberry Layer:

Creamy Topping (Optional but Worth It!):

- Sliced strawberries for garnish
- Crushed graham crackers or granola for crunch
Instructions
Step 1: Mix the Base
- In a mason jar or bowl, combine oats, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, honey, and vanilla.
- Stir well until fully mixed—no dry spots!
Step 2: Add the Strawberries
- Layer diced strawberries on top (or mix them in for even berry distribution).
- For extra sweetness, swirl in a spoonful of strawberry jam.
Step 3: Chill & Transform!
- Seal the jar and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).
- The next morning, top with whipped cream, fresh berries, and a sprinkle of crunch.
Notes
- 🔹 Texture control: Like it thicker? Add more chia seeds. Thinner? Extra milk!

- 🔹 Meal prep magic: Make 3-4 jars for grab-and-go breakfasts all week.
