Mmm, Mmm, Mmm! This delicious chocolatey, nutty, oatmeal smoothie can be made as you need it, but it turns into something better altogether if you rest it for a few hours or even overnight in the refrigerator. And even although mine is currently there I know from Amanda’s other recipes that this will be great!
So fill up before you hit your day, never mind hitting the road in your running shoes, lol!
The recipe is from Amanda at RunningWithSpoons, who says …
Silky and smooth, [with] that stick-to-your-ribs feeling of a bowl of oats that’ll keep you satisfied for hours. Vegan, gluten-free [NOTE: be sure by using certified gluten-free oats], and packed with plant-based protein and fiber, this smoothie makes a perfect healthy and easy breakfast or snack!

Blend all the ingredients then rest in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, and preferably overnight.
