Ingredients

Blueberries: Fresh or frozen, they are chock full of antioxidants and are sweet with just a bit of an acidic taste.
Banana: Creamy and sweet, bananas taste great with blueberries, and are a great way to naturally sweeten smoothies.
Oats: I usually use quick or old-fashioned/rolled oats, but you can use whatever you have on hand! Even steel-cut.
Yogurt: Plain yogurt contributes to the creamy texture while helping it blend. Use Greek yogurt for an extra protein punch.
Protein powder: I use vanilla flavor, but whether it’s whey or plant-based, it’ll help keep you full.
Flaxseed: Flavorless, but adds fiber and most importantly omega-3s.
Cinnamon: Adds sweet flavor and a load of antioxidants.
Nutmeg: Sweet, woody, nutty taste that contributes to the smoothie tasting like pie.
