Lemon Cheesecake Overnight Oats

These are so tasty and totally make me think I am eating dessert for breakfast! It packs 30 grams of protein from the protein powder, milk (I use Fairlife Whole milk lactose free to get high protein) and the greek yogurt and greek cream cheese - which has more protein than reg cream cheese! These take a bit more time and dishes to prepare than my other OG recipes, but its worth it! I highly recommend WAITING until the AM to put your yogurt topping a top the oats layer, otherwise it just doesn’t set as well. Also feel free to add extra creaminess topping by putting my fav coconut whipped cream on top!
