Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Smoothie

Breakfast smoothies are perfect on the go option for busy mornings. Just toss all ingredients in the blender and blend! A filling smoothie makes a healthy start to the day and keeps you going all morning. Also smoothies are so versatile, just by varying the ingredients, you can enjoy a different flavored smoothie each day and you will never get bored.

Now if you are a regular follower on my blog, you can see I have posted a variety of breakfast smoothie recipes. Recently I have started including oats in my smoothies and am absolutely loving it. If you are trying to lose weight or looking for a post work-out light meal, oatmeal smoothies are a great option. I recommend old fashioned rolled oats over instant or quick oats as they are less processed and better. The goodness of strawberries and banana makes this oatmeal smoothie even more nutritious!
