In a small saucepan, bring the oats, salt, and larger portion of water to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the oats are soft and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat.
Stir two-thirds of the protein powder and the chocolate chips into the warm oatmeal until the powder is fully dissolved and the chips begin to melt slightly. Transfer to a bowl.
In a small bowl, stir together the remaining protein powder, the peanut butter, and the smaller portion of water until a stiff, smooth dough forms. Use your hands to squeeze the mixture and roll it into 4 small, even balls.
Place the peanut butter balls on a small plate and set them in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up while you eat the oatmeal.
