Guest Post: Tangy Dough Boy Smoothie (Kath Eats)

For TWO Dough Boy Smoothies

2/3 cup rolled oats (I had to mix in a little Scottish because we were out of rolled and that seemed to work fine)

2/3 cup milk

2/3 cup plain yogurt ( <—the tang!)

2 smallish ripe bananas

2 tbsp chia seeds

1 tsp vanilla

1tsp cinnamon

Pinch salt

Plus 1/2 cup milk for AM

Mix together in blender (just with a spoon). Put in fridge overnight. In AM, add 1/2 cup milk and blend away!

Topped with the amazing Lynda’s Granola and Flying Squirrel PB – Bright Eyed and Bushy Tailed!

Dough Boy Smoothie Bowl

I never liked smoothies very much until I started serving them in a bowl, soup style! Eating a smoothie with a spoon is so much more fun than drinking it in a glass – when it disappears in 1 minute flat in my house!

Additionally, adding toppings, some of which sink to the bottom, make the eating process more exciting. Chewing helps me feel satisfied, so I love adding that dimension to smoothies.

For TWO smoothies

1 cup raw rolled oats

1 cup milk

2 tbsp chia seeds

1 banana

Sprinkle cinnamon

Splash vanilla

Pinch kosher salt

Combine all into a blender, stir and put in fridge overnight. In the morning, add about 1/4 cup more milk (just to loosen things up) and whirl away. Top with favorites!
