Blueberry Oatmeal Maple Smoothie


Drinkable blueberry oatmeal...that's exactly what this smoothie tasted like. It was delicious! I love smoothies of pretty much all flavors, and blueberry is one of my favorites, but this was the first time I ever put oats into one.

I followed the recipe when it came to mixing the 1/2 cup of oats and the cup of yogurt, but then in the morning, since I was making this for just myself, I only put half of that mixture into a blender. I then halved the rest of the ingredients and it was perfect for just one person. It made all of what is in that cup above...not one drop more. And since I only used half of the yogurt/oat mixture, I can have this for breakfast again tomorrow!

If you're a smoothie, blueberry, or oatmeal lover, than I definitely recommend trying this. It's super easy and very filling. The hardest thing about this is remembering to mix the oats and yogurt and put it in the fridge overnight. I wanted this for about 3 mornings in a row until I finally just left myself a huge note on the fridge to remind myself to prep it the night before :)
