In a small pot, combine the rolled oats and almond milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes until thickened and creamy, stirring occasionally.
Add the protein powder and stir until fully dissolved. Serve topped with sliced banana and a swirl of almond butter.
In a large bowl, mix the spinach, cooked quinoa, chickpeas, feta cheese, and cherry tomatoes. Toss gently to combine.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Drizzle over the salad and toss gently.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Massage the seasoning into the chicken.
Place chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Surround with broccoli and bake for 25-30 minutes.
