1. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a mason jar, add 1/4 cup of multi-grain oatmeal.
2. Add Liquid Ingredients:
Pour in 1/3 cup of milk (1% fat) and 1 cup of Greek yogurt into the bowl or jar with the oatmeal.

6. Mix Thoroughly:
Stir all the ingredients together until they are well combined. Ensure the oats are submerged in the liquid to soak properly.

Cover the mixture with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Leave it to sit overnight (at least 6-8 hours).
8. Serve and Enjoy:
In the morning, give the oatmeal a good stir. You can enjoy it cold straight from the fridge, or warm it up in the microwave if you prefer it hot. Optionally, top with fresh apple slices, a sprinkle of additional cinnamon, or nuts for extra flavor and texture.

Tips:

- Use a mason jar or any airtight container for easy storage and a grab-and-go breakfast.

- For added crunch, top with fresh apple slices or a sprinkle of granola before serving.

- Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less honey.

- For a dairy-free version, use almond milk and dairy-free yogurt.

- Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds and oats are well-distributed.

- Let the mixture sit in the refrigerator for at least 6-8 hours or overnight for the best texture.
