    Can the chocolate whey powder be substituted for something else, like cocoa powder? I'm severely allergic to milk, so I wouldn't be able to use it, but I want to try this recipe.

    How long does it have to be kept in the fridge for before you can eat it? I forgot to make some last night and really want to try it today.

    I love refrigerator oatmeal! My favorite is to mix in the Chocolate PB2 and I use a bit of almond milk, plain greek yogurt, oats, and stevia to sweeten a bit. It's fantastic.

    How am I only hearing about this now??!!!!!!!!!! Totally goin' to try this this weekend.

    I love porridge but it's a bit hot (well Irish hot! ) to be eating hot porridge. Excited to try this now, bit bored of my shredded wheat with banana/blueberry mix! Thanks

    I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet (there are a lot of posts!), but Kath from Kath Eats Real Food (katheats.com) LOVES overnight oats and is always posting recipes. She has a special "tribute to oatmeal" section on her blog too...so funny :)

    Check it out though, I bet you can find at least 10 recipes you like ;)

    Ok - so you have tons of responses and I can't go through them all to see if anyone mentioned it, but get yourself some PB2. It's powdered peanut butter (unless you have a peanut allergy of course). PB2 has 85% less calories and fat than peanut butter because they remove the oil. It's just peanuts. Anyways- add some of that and bananas. Or strawberries for a PB&J sandwich taste. Endless combinations. They also make it in a chocolate peanut butter flavor. 2 TBSP is only 45 calories and packs a TON of flavor, so it's a nice addition without the bulk.

    I also have been enjoying them with the vanilla almond milk for an extra kick.

    Ok so here's the one I made last night (second time making overnight oats, and loved my first recipe!):

    1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt
    1/2 cup of quick oats
    1 scoop of vanilla whey isolate
    1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk
    1 Truvia packet
    1 cup of fresh blueberries
    a couple of shakes of ground cinnamon

    Came out to 476 cals and 49 grams of protein. Absolutely amazing and filling for my first meal of the day! I ate it around 9am and didn't eat again until 2:30. Yum!

    You should use the Old Fashioned Rolled Oats...

    Here are some extra recipes as well as instructions!
