Oats, chia and coconut are great ingredients with which to start making a smoothie, especially one with staying power. Throw in some tropical fruits and you have one healthy, tasty, delicious, yummy, smoothie to enjoy any time of the day or night. Yes, there are many folks out there who work the night-shift who enjoy smoothies, too, you know!
This scrumptious concoction is from Amanda at RunningWithSpoons who says …
I packed plenty of fruity goodness into this tropical smoothie, with a touch of oats to balance things out and add a little bit of extra staying power.
… but don’t skimp on the lemon juice! I know it might sound like a strange addition, but it adds a perfectly refreshing bite that compliments the sweeter flavours of the other fruits really nicely.
