These Pistachio Overnight Oats with Greek Yogurt are my latest breakfast obsession. They are loaded with fiber and protein and will keep you full until lunch. The pistachio flavor is also so good and reminiscent of pistachio gelato.
For more yummy high protein breakfast recipes try my chocolate strawberry chia pudding, banana cream pie chia pudding or my blueberry vanilla chia pudding.

Recipe FAQS
No, this will mess up the consistency.
I do not suggest doing this as it will alter the consistency and flavor of the overnight oats. If you must leave out the protein powder then add in 1 tablespoon of sweetener and ½ teaspoon of vanilla.
I like to top my chia pudding with fresh fruit, cacao nibs and bee pollen.
Recipe Pro-Tips
Use a good tasting protein powder for the best tasting chia pudding. My favorite whey proteins are Ballerina Farms and Mind Body Green.
I recommend using whey protein for this recipe as vegan protein absorbs more liquid.
