I have been making overnight oats for a while now and I have tried several flavor combinations, but I decided to finally try a chocolate version. My go-to is much less indulgent, but it's still super good and I'll be sure to post the recipe for that one soon! In the meantime, you should definitely try this one! It's great as an indulgent breakfast or a healthier dessert.
The freeze dried strawberries kind of re-hydrate in the fridge and make a great addition to the rich chocolate. I say this makes 1 or 2 servings because it seems like one serving, but could stretch for two days because of how rich it is (it took me two days to eat it). I hope you try this recipe because it was really good and still pretty nutritional!!

Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp almond milk

Steps:
1. In a small container, combine oats, chia seeds, cocoa powder, and salt.
2. Add almond milk and maple syrup and stir until well combined.
3. Add strawberries and chocolate chips and close the lid.

*Tip: If you don't like the texture of chia seeds, grind them up so that they will still thicken it but you won't even know they are there.
