In a large bowl, add the steel cut oats, chia seeds, salt, milk, yogurt, and any flavor extracts or sweeteners (like honey) and mix well. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Notes

Oats: I used quick cooking steel cut oats, but standard steel cut oats work.
My go-to flavor boosters: I typically add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and two tablespoons of honey to the mixture.
Leftovers: Keep in the fridge for up to 7 days or the freezer for up to 6 months.
