This Oatmeal Blueberry Banana Smoothie is packed with blueberries, banana, and oats to help kickstart your day.
Oats in a smoothie? Say what? Yes…oatmeal in a smoothie! And it’s absolutely delicious.
Why would I blend up something so delicious on it’s own? Because it makes a smoothie taste like pie, that’s why.
As a mom of two young boys, leisurely breakfasts are a thing of the past, especially for someone like me who can’t stand eating cold oatmeal. (Yes, I’ve been known to re-heat it 20 times before 9am.)
My solution? This thick and creamy Oatmeal Blueberry Banana Smoothie. Pro Tip: Don’t forget the cinnamon…the brown little spice is loaded in antioxidants.
Your straw is waiting.

February 18, 2013 at 12:09 pmFound you via a “fell off the wagon” post on pinterest. So many great recipes here, I jumped right up to make this tasty smoothie. I have tons of wild alaskan blueberries we picked last fall and this certainly puts them to good use. I substituted almond milk for water, no ice since my berries were frozen and snuck in a handful of spinach too :) I had never tried oatmeal in a smoothie before, love it and the kids (age 6&7) do too.
