Ok, I've got some cut oats and oat milk. How do I go about this overnight oats thing? It just goes in the fridge?

Yes but that alone will probably not taste too good. A little more effort is worth it. Easy to meal-prep for the whole week too.

I use this guys base recipe and mess around with toppings. The banana bread and pb&j ones are a favorite.

This is a copy paste from his video description:

1 serving of BASE OATS contains: 310 calories, 12g protein, 45g carbs, 6.5g fat, 14g sugar, and 7g fibre. This is based on using unsweetened almond milk.

BASE OATS (1 serving):

Combine and refrigerate overnight:

► Rolled oats (1/2 cup)

► Chia seeds (1 tbsp)

► Milk (1/2 cup)

► Greek yogurt (1/4 cup)

► Maple syrup (1 tbsp)

FLAVOUR #1 - BANANA BREAD

Refrigerate ingredients:

FLAVOUR #2 - PB&J (PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY)

Prepare raspberry puree:

► Whisk and stir until it softens into a smooth puree consistency

► Set aside to cool

Refrigerate ingredients overnight:

Thanks, I'll give it a go. How important are the chia seeds to the whole operation?

And one more dumb question: are rolled oats and steel cut oats different?
