Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)

Zest of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon chia seeds (optional, for added fiber)

1 cup fresh blueberries (adjust according to preference)

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix well.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or honey), lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

      Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the oats and stir until all the oats are evenly coated.

        Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are distributed throughout the mixture.

          Divide the mixture into two or more jars or containers with lids.

            Secure the lids and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the oats to soak and soften.

              In the morning, give the oats a good stir before serving. You can add extra lemon zest, blueberries, or a drizzle of honey on top for added flavor. Enjoy chilled!
