Need a powerful breakfast that keeps you going both before and after your workout? This coffee-flavored protein overnight oats are a simple, quick, and truly satisfying option. Prepare it the night before in minutes, let it thicken in the fridge, and in the morning you'll have a creamy, slightly chocolatey bowl with a delicious coffee flavor.
What makes it even more appealing are the Shop Santé products : the IsoGen powder (iced coffee) provides a generous serving of protein , while the complex carbohydrates (unflavored) add welcome energy support , especially when you want to arrive at the gym with plenty of fuel. After your workout, this duo also helps with recovery , without any hassle.
And for a more complete bowl, simply add a piece of fruit just before serving (banana, blueberries, strawberries, mango or apple): it brings freshness, texture and a little boost of natural carbohydrates.
