Oatmeal, milk, fruit and orange juice make a typical breakfast for many of us. What about you? So, is it any wonder that, when you can incorporate all these ingredients into a healthy breakfast on the go, you are on to a winner? And especially so in the warmer months.
Oatmeal smoothies are good to replace a meal when you have a busy day ahead and need to make an early start. Prepare it the night before and store in the refrigerator so you can make a quick dash out the door.
This tasty recipe comes from Dina at OliveOilAndLemons.
This makes 2 large smoothies. However, if you prefer a smaller one you could have a boiled egg and some wholegrain toast, too – all easily transportable, if necessary.
Dina says …
I am a big fan of oatmeal for breakfast and this smoothie incorporates the elements of a morning oatmeal into a drink. Smoothies are not an exact science so don’t get hung up on quantities.
