1. Pumpkin Smoothie

Ingredients:

  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons old-fashioned oats

  • ¼ cup canned pumpkin puree

  • ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1 medium apple- cut into pieces (I used honey crisp and left the skin on)

  • ½ small banana (sliced and frozen)

  • ½ cup milk (almond, soy, dairy, etc. – whatever you prefer)

  • 1/8 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

  • ½ cup ice cubes

Instructions:

Place oats in a blender and blend for about 30 seconds until finely chopped. Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.


2. Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie

Ingredients:

For 2 12-ounce smoothies

  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 2 tablespoons agave nectar

  • 2 tablespoons flax meal

  • 1/3 cup oats

  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 frozen banana, peeled and chopped

  • 1 1/2 cups vanilla almond milk

Instructions:

Pop the ingredients in a blender, and go from mix to liquify in steps. Let it blend on liquify (or the highest setting) for 30 seconds. The trick to this smoothie is REALLY blending it. Taste and add more almond/coconut milk if you like a thinner consistency.

  • Enjoy right away or refrigerate up to one day.

4. Winter Berry Smoothie

Ingredients:

  • 1 c. mixed berries, frozen
