Recovering after a long-run with some high protein overnight oats

Below is a delicious recipe from Dietitians of Canada. I would highly recommend this recipe for those working out in the morning and needing something fast before heading off to work. It’s super easy to make and contains an impressive 26 grams of proteins!

 High Protein Overnight Oats (1 serving):
½ cup Low-fat Greek yogurt 125 g
½ cup Low-fat milk 125 mL
½ cup Mixed berries 125 mL
½ cup Oats, dry 125 mL
1 tsp. Maple syrup 5 mL
Cinnamon to taste

Directions: Mix yogurt, milk and oats together in a re-sealable container. Leave refrigerated overnight. In the morning, add berries, cinnamon, maple syrup, or any other toppings you prefer. Stir and serve.
