Preparation Steps
- In a medium bowl or jar, combine 1 cup of old-fashioned oats, 1/2 cup of milk, and 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt. Stir thoroughly for a creamy texture.
- Incorporate 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the oat mixture, mixing until smooth.
- Gently fold in 1 cup of diced fresh strawberries, ensuring a mix of whole and crushed pieces for flavor bursts.
- Transfer the mixture into a mason jar or airtight container, layering additional diced strawberries on top if desired.
- Seal tightly and refrigerate for at least 4–6 hours or preferably overnight for best results.
- In the morning, stir the oats, adjusting the consistency with extra milk if necessary.
- Top with optional garnishes such as crushed graham crackers, sliced almonds, or whipped cream before serving.

Notes
Ensure oats are fully submerged in milk and use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps. Reserve half the strawberries for topping to prevent sogginess.
