Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie

It's smoothie weather again ( I don't drink cold things when it's cold outside, except water, maybe I'm weird). Therefore anything I can think to mix up in the blender gets tossed under the blade.

I tend to make a lot of fruit smoothies, but this one is slightly different. It tastes just like an oatmeal cookie. Yes, an oatmeal cookie. I kid you not. Without all the calories and fats.

I first saw this recipe over at Happy Herbivore. It hits all the categories for being vegan. It hits all the categories for being healthy. It hits all the categories for being a good source of minerals. More importantly, it hits all the categories for being refreshing.

Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie
1/4 c almond milk
2 frozen bananas, chunks
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 c oatmeal (uncooked)
1 tblsp raisins (if you want it sweeter add more)

I threw the liquid in the blender, then the solids and blended till creamy perfection. You won't regret this one, it's easy and fulfilling.
