# What You'll Need:
→ Oats Base
01 - 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
02 - 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
03 - 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based alternative
04 - 2 tablespoons chia seeds
05 - 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
06 - 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - Pinch of salt
→ Strawberry Lemonade Mix
08 - 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
09 - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
10 - 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
11 - 2 teaspoons poppy seeds
→ Toppings
12 - Sliced fresh strawberries for garnish
13 - Additional lemon zest for garnish
14 - Extra poppy seeds for garnish
# Directions:
01 - In a medium bowl or large jar, combine oats, milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir thoroughly until well incorporated.
02 - In a separate small bowl, mash half of the diced strawberries with lemon juice and lemon zest until juicy with some visible fruit chunks remaining.
03 - Fold the mashed strawberry mixture, remaining diced strawberries, and poppy seeds into the oat base. Stir until evenly distributed throughout.
04 - Cover the bowl or seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow oats to hydrate and soften while flavors develop and meld.
05 - In the morning, stir the oats and add additional milk if a thinner consistency is preferred. Divide between two serving bowls or jars and top with fresh strawberries, lemon zest, and poppy seeds. Serve chilled.
