The perfect protein-packed breakfast or post-workout meal to keep you satisfied, focused, and full of energy.
When following a #vegan or plant-based diet, it can be a little tough to meet necessary #protein needs. BUT...it is very much-so possible.
Overnight oats have been a big help for me to make sure I'm getting adequate protein in my diet...plus they're yummy AF.
I HIGHLY recommend trying out my recipe below—especially if you're trying to find the perfect post-workout meal or if you're in need of a solid breakfast to keep you full for your whole morning and give ya lots of energy.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup oats *I personally prefer quick oats*
1 scoop protein powder
1 tbsp peanut butter powder
2 tsp pure maple syrup *can substitute agave or honey*
1 tsp chia seeds
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup unsweetened nut milk
Instructions:
Mix all ingredients together in a Mason Jar or small Tupperware container.
Cover and store in fridge overnight.
Grab from the fridge the next day, stir, and enjoy!
Notes:
-If you like a thinner consistency, stir in a little more milk before eating.
-You can use any flavor of protein. *Vanilla or salted caramel are my go-to's.*
-Make sure you choose a clean protein powder & avoid junk ingredients!
...if you're ever unsure, the less amount of ingredients, *usually* the better the quality & if there's a bunch of ingredients you can't even pronounce...it's *more than likely* one to avoid & leave on the shelf.
