Ingredients

  • ½ cup quick cooking oatmeal
  • ¼ cup walnuts (coarsely chopped)
  • 2 cup coconut milk beverage*
  • 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 cups cut-up banana
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 2 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 ½ Tbsp honey
  • 1 cup ice cubes (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Place oatmeal and walnuts in a small pan and continually stir on medium high till slightly toasted. (You will smell the delicious toasty aroma when it’s done.) This process will take about 3 minutes. (Alternately, the oatmeal and walnuts could be toasted in the oven. Place in a shallow baking pan and toast in a 350 oven for 5-8 minutes, stirring once.)
  2. Place all ingredients into a blender and blend till smooth. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

Cook’s notes

*For the purpose of this smoothie, I suggest using the Coconut Milk Beverage that can be found near the alternative milk products in the dairy case.
