- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- ½ cup milk
Mix-ins
- ½ cup blueberries
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions
- Combine base ingredients: In a medium jar or bowl, mix the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, and milk thoroughly to ensure an even consistency.
