Mocha Latte High Protein Overnight Oats
Make overnight oats before bedtime (takes 5 minutes) and they're ready and waiting in the fridge for you in the a.m. for instant eats. Maybe the only thing better than this kind of speed and convenience is when your morning oatmeal is caffeinated! Recipe from Tom Venuto's Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle Blog (www.BurnTheFatBlog.com)

- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, plain, nonfat (113g)
- 1/4 cup liquid egg whites, pasteurized (or nonfat milk)
- 1/4 cup brewed coffee

- 1 Tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder (5g)
- 1 packet sweetener (stevia, etc)
Instructions
- In a glass jar add oats, chia seeds, sweetener, protein powder and cocoa powder
- Add greek yogurt, pasteurized egg whites and brewed coffee (cold is fine)
- Seal jar tightly and shake vigorously or stir until ingredients are mixed
