Recipe Notes

ProTip #1: Blend nut milk, nut butter, protein powder, and strawberries together in blender for a smooth, perfectly mixed consistency.

ProTip #2: Store your oats in an airtight container and you will find that this makes breakfast for 3 days.

ProTip #3: Double, triple or even quadruple the recipe if you are feeding friends and family.

ProTip #4: While most enjoy this delicious dish straight from the fridge (myself included), you can just as easily eat it warm! All it takes is 2-3 minutes on low heat in a saucepan or if you are really on a time crunch, 30-60 seconds in the microwave should do the trick.
