Chocolate-covered strawberries for breakfast? YES PLEASE! Make this chocolate covered strawberry overnight oats recipe and eat dessert for breakfast. Well, not really, but it sure does taste like it! These overnight oats are packed with fiber, 100% whole grain, and a healthy breakfast option all week long.
So. I think this is my favorite overnight oats recipe out of all the that are part of this series. Why? The flavor is UNREAL. You guys- this recipe rocks my world. It’s not only made with chocolate protein powder, but a little bit of high-quality cocoa powder to give it such amazing chocolatey flavor. On top of that, the strawberries I got from Costco were Ah.May.Zing. The little chunks inside of the chocolatey oats are the perfect burst of flavor.
I just can’t get enough.
Here’s What You Need
- rolled oats
- cocoa powder
- Greek yogurt
- almond milk
- honey
- chia seeds
- strawberries
Of course, I topped mine with all natural peanut butter.
SHHHH.
FREAL though, this recipe legit tastes like dessert.
Dessert for breakfast? Cuz why not?
As always, feel free to add in some protein powder. If you do this, we suggest adding chocolate protein powder to stay with the theme. I would add no more than 2 tablespoons or it will taste a little gritty. Both plant-based and whey are great options!

Fun Fact #6 was going to be the fact that I am a shitty speller…but then I realized you all already know that so…..
Fun Fact #6: I swear like a sailor.
For those that know me in real life, they know I have a giant potty mouth. I reallllllly try and hold back the swears on the blog because I know some people are offended by stuff like that, but I just can’t help it. My humor is pretty raunchy…lots of Rated R jokes that involve balls, boobs, and sex. Oops. I also say the eff word a lot…which I am trying to tone down! It’s all in good humor, though…I promise! 😀 Like yesterday’s fact…I feel like my swearing and humor are partially hereditary…thanks Mom!
Dessert for breakfast? 15 GSSS of PROTEIN? OATMEAL? This post just has e’rythang that I love all wrapped up into one breakfast. Clearly, It is going in my face STAT. Pinning!
Heart you.
I so wish I had a big bowl of these oats for breakfast right now! They look amazing!
So do I, actually!!!
I am totally cracking up about the potty mouth. IRL I am like that too but totally tone it down for the blog since people email me about it when I let it fly. Love these oats!!!
😛 They’re all like…we don’t come to your blog to look at your offensive language…we come for the recipe. That’s why I’m obsessed with Thug Kitchen, because they say what everyone’s thinking 😀
You are both a terrible speller and completely R rated in your humour. It’s why I’ve been obsessed with you since day one. Something about dem blonde midwesterners who can’t spell. Makes my heart putter!
The only thing I wish is…that wordpress would figure out that we are besties and that THM is NOT A SPAMMER.
Everyone says they don’t expect it from me, but I swear like a sailor in real life, too. I’ve tried to tone it down (and been mildly successful), but as long as it’s in good humor I don’t worry about it too much.
Haha. I try and tone my sex jokes down because I forget some people get offended by penises and vaginas 😛
Choc covered strawberry oatmeal?!!! This actually sounds like the best flavor and texture combo. And last night I bought a big bag of oats because I wanted to make everything from this week. I plan on living off of oatmeal this weekend 😉 And yes ma’am, I swear like a sailor and also have my mom to thank for that one!
START WITH THIS ONE! You will actually fall in love. It’s my favorite out of all 7 of the recipes in this series 😀
Hey Lee!
I’ve been following FFF since 2011 and I just wanted to say you have great creativity. I noticed you do a lot of fun/simple recipes which is wonderful. Also, a lot of other blogs have become so fancy and polished which, counter intuitively, I find less appealing. I understand they want to look professional, but it also increases the gap between the reader and writer, and seems more artificial. I’d rather just go read a magazine then. I like that you retain your personality and keep the character.
Also, I’m a Minnesotan living in Louisiana, so I’m totally biased, but whatever. Keep up what you’re doing!
Wow you’ve been reading FFF since prehistoric times 😛 Thanks for sticking around so long! I always used to compare myself to the blogs who made all of this beautiful food, but then I asked myself if I would REALLY make it. The answer is no. I make things that take like 10 minutes, call for minimal ingredients, and are as whole as possible! I do try and make them as appealing as possible, though 😛 Again, thanks for being such a fab reader and WOO for Minnesota!
This looks wonderful. I’ve been dropping some weight and this looks like a wonderful addition to my go-to meals. Kind thanks for sharing. You had me at chocolate….
Chocolate for breakfast is always the right answer 😛
Chocolate is always one of the right answers… 🙂
Oh how you make me laugh. I’ve been reading the blog for a while, but I must comment on how much I LOVE your honesty & how you’re REAL. I def. have a potty mouth too.. however with a toddler I learn to zip my lips lately 😉
I have really good friends with small kids and between Blake and I we’re paying for their college with our potty mouth jar
Full on potty mouth here…Although it comes in waves. Some days I am better than others, but other times it is slightly out of control. Also depends on who I am around. HA! Chocolate and strawberries is absolutely delicious!
Yes!!! If I’m around another sailor it gets so much better… Aka the swears get worse
You can’t beat chocolate+strawberry!!
I love your humor even though I don’t know it, but just by your description 😉 My boyfriend tends to talk a lot “under the belt” jokes and I’m used to it, even picked it up over the years. But I know when it’s inappropriate to make dirty jokes, hehe.
🙂 one of the reasons I like working for myself. I can say what I want when I want
I’m making this tonight to have for my early breakfast tomorrow morning 🙂 I’m adding some flax seeds too because I love them in oatmeal. I looove strawberry season!
This is MY FAVORITE overnight oat recipe. Let me know what you think, lady!
oh yes. Chocolate + Strawbs + peanut butter . yes.
I wish I could say I got my bad language from my parents, but they were the kind who sent me to my room for saying ‘i don’t care’ lol!
I don’t think I was ever grounded as a kid. EVER. #imperfect
I hated overnight oats…until now 😉
This recipe will change your life. I PROMISE.
What size are the jars in the picture? The nutritional info is it for 1 serving or 2?
Hi there! The information is for 1 out of 2 servings (the recipes in this series are all 2 servings). I honestly have no idea how big the jar is!
Lee,
I recently discovered your blog, and love it! This recipe looks soo delicious ! I need this recipe in my belly right about now.
Ahh this is my FAVORITE overnight oat recipe. Let me know if you end up making it 😀
I’m allergic to all nuts and sadly, can’t have almond milk. What would you suggest to replace it with in this recipe?
Hi Carla! You are more than welcome to use cow’s milk, or any kind of milk you drink. If you don’t drink milk, water will work too!
Looks so good! Would it be possible to leave out the greek yogurt and change to protein powder to make it vegan?
BTW I too have the mouth of a sailor… haha! I have to really rein it in sometimes… It’s great to know there are other ladies out there like myself! I read an article somewhere, stating that people who cuss tend to be more trustworthy and honest, so yay us! 🙂
YAY us is right!!!! I’ve been so bad lately…I’m working on toning it the eff down 😛 You could totally leave out the Greek yogurt and just add almond milk. Also- swapping the protein powder for plant based will work too!
This looks delicious! Is there a way to substitute protein powder for something else with a similar substance? I don’t want to have to buy a container of that stuff if I don’t have to. 🙂
You could make this with no protein powder 🙂 It should still work!
I don’t use protein powder, will I need more cocoa or will I be fine without the powder?
This sounds delicious!!!! Is the protein powder necessary or can you omit it/ substitute? Thanks!
Sorry, I just looked at previous comments… found the answer haha
Making this for tomorrow’s breakfast! Can’t wait!!
Damn that is so good..Can be a great sweetdish
THESE ARE SO GOOD. I used thawed frozen strawberries and put them into the jar the night before when I made everything else!

WOOHOO!!
Hi
This looks to be yummy and will make it. Do you mind sharing where I can buy the glass shown in your post. It is really cool with markings for oats and toppings
Thanks
Hi! I got this from West Elm a few years ago!
This recipe has genuinely improved my life so much :D! I was never a fan of the usual breakfast options, I found egg a bit much in the morning and most other breakfast recipes were way too sweet!
I always ended up having leftover dinner for breakfast as I love savory food…except chocolate
Chocolate is my one big weakness but I hate the amount of sugar in so I had been trying to cutback.
But with this recipe it tastes sooo lovely and chocolatey that it has completely got rid of my usual chocolate cravings. I know find my favourite bars of chocolate taste too sweet.
The only change I make is add 2 tablespoons of cocoa instead of 3 as I found it a little bitter
Thank you so much for helping me finally eat breakfast properly 😀

YAY!!
