This simple, quick and easy smoothie recipe is perfect for a quick snack, to boost your protein intake or as a breakfast smoothie.
We like to drink our smoothies in the mornings for breakfast as they are quick and easy to drink during the morning rush! If you’d rather not have yours in the morning, simply take out the oats (or keep them in, it’s purely preference)
If you are short on time in the mornings, you can prep all the ingredients the night before and simply blend in the morning. Just keep all the ingredients in the fridge over night to stay fresh.
