These Double Chocolate Berry Overnight Oats are the perfect meal prep breakfast for a chocoholic that's on the go! I love having chocolate for breakfast, and pairing it with oats, chia seeds, flaxseed, vegan greek yogurt, and berries makes this a balanced breakfast that keeps me full for hours!

Double Chocolate: Benefits of Cocoa

Cocoa powder and dark chocolate have many nutritional benefits. Cocoa powder boosts the immune system and improves nerve and muscle function due to the iron, zinc, magnesium, manganese, and selenium found in it. It is also high in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients.

The strawberries on top not only pair beautifully with the chocolate, they also are high in vitamin C, which can help boost your immune system.

Oats: A Complex Carbohydrate

Starting your day with oats is a great choice. As a complex carbohydrate, oats release energy slowly, keeping you energized and full throughout the morning.

They're also a great source of fiber, aiding in digestion and contributing to heart health. This recipe not only offers the nutritional benefits of oats but also incorporates cocoa powder and fresh strawberries.

Overnight Oats Meal Prep

This recipe is perfect for meal prep because it has 5 servings. It allows you to simplify your mornings and ensures you never have to compromise on a nutritious start to your day. I've made it a habit to prepare these oats on Sunday night so I can wake up to a delicious breakfast that's waiting for me in the fridge. It's become one of my favorite grab-and-go options.

Choosing the Best Vegan Yogurt

For the non-dairy greek yogurt, these are my 2 favorite yogurts that have a good amount of protein and minimal added ingredients.

1. Sigis plain sweetened yogurt

2. Kite Hill plain greek yogurt.

I like these because they are a good source of protein and are a great consistency, making these overnight oats thicker and creamier!
