Overnight oatmeal, summer porridge, muesli, refrigerator oatmeal, smoothie bowl … whatever you want to call it, it looks good and it tastes good and IS sooooo good for you :o) But I’m into smoothies these days, so I thought what if I switch up my overnight oatmeal and make it into a smoothie. How difficult could that be? Answer, NOT!
I came across a selection of refrigerator oatmeals from Monica at TheYummyLife and decided to switch one of her delicious recipes to a smoothie.
Here’s what Monica has to say about her refrigerator oatmeal …
Easy, no-cook oatmeal with make-ahead convenience; packed with nutrition to get your day off to a healthy start.
So what do I need to do to make this a super fast, meal replacement, breakfast smoothie?
