    I've had this the last two days. I didn't have any chia seeds, I've got some coming to try, but in the mean time I used ground flax seed. One day I used frozen rasberries, and sugar free rasberry perserves, and the next day I used sugar free applesauce, chunked/sliced apples and cinnamon. I sweetened both with Splenda and they were both super good. It'll def. be my go to breakfast.

    This is how I make them:

    40g steel cut oats
    100g vanilla greek yogurt
    5g chia seeds
    35g vanilla body fortress isolate
    100g frozen blueberries
    1/2c water

    441 calories, 45g protein, 10g fibre

    Do you cook yours because of the steel cut oats or just overnight in fridge?

    I have ate the 4 mornings in a row, delicious and my favorite so far is with 2 tablespoons of PB2 in it.

    I put a whole scoop of vanilla protien powder in it but I think that was too much, next time I'll do half a scoop. I also used 1 TBS. ground flaxseed instead of chia seeds. It was really thick so I ate mine with an additional 8 ounces of almond milk. Can't wait to try again!

    ^^^ This is my question too, we only eat steel cut oats and if I can do this the night before with out having to cook them I am going to be super happy. I do batch cook steel cut oats but this will be way easier.

    I have heard it works the same with Steel cut oats, but I've never tried it. I have some at home, might try it tonight, so I will report back. I've only used the Old Fashioned Oats...not the quick oats. I'm hooked on this though...and if it works with the steel cut oats, even better :)

    Can I use something other than greek yogurt? I've had it once before and told myself I would never eat it again, its really gross.

    I tried it. I loved that it was definetly filling but the flavor was off. I could definetly taste the greek yogurt. I only used almond milk, rolled oats, and greek yogurt because I couldn't find Chia seeds. I didn't add anything else, so I didn't like the flavor. After I find the Chia seeds, I will try it again and add some fruits and sweetener.

    At the time I didn't have Old Fashioned Oats, only the Quick Oats and it still turned out really good. I made up a large batch in a bowl and scooped it into individual refrigerator bowls and added different flavored stuff to each for variety. One I added Capella Flavor Drops (very concentrated flavorings) Chocolate Fudge Brownie and banana, another I used real fruit strawberry jam, one was with reduced calorie maple syrup and a diced date. I also made one with Blueberry Crumble concentrated flavoring, fresh blueberries and stevia.

    The last batch I made I used the Old Fashioned Oats and I'm not sure which I liked better, both were very good. I don't see why the steel cut wouldn't work. It might be a little more chewy but that's not bad.

    Do u heat the oatmeal? Cold oatmeal doesn't really appeal to me but I would probably like it hot. thx!

    I eat it cold. I don't think it would taste very good hot and the yogurt might curdle?? It doesn't really taste like oatmeal cereal, more like an oatmeal cookie batter.

    Mm.. I'm a fan of the ol' overnight oats. I haven't had them in awhile.. Maybe I'll put my chia seeds to use this week. :)
