This is for the PBJ lovers! Start cooking up the oatmeal first. Place all of the ingredients for the smoothie in the blender. Finish up the PBJ oatmeal and then blend up your smoothie. Indulge in the hot & cold peanut butter & fruit experience.
Have you tried steel-cut oatmeal? It has a fabulous texture, which has converted many an oatmeal hater into an lover. The only problem is that it takes a bit too long to cook on a quick weekday morning. Try this method which involves heating and then soaking the oats overnight.
For a playful twist stir in your favorite pbj toppings— the nuts & nut butter add protein and the jam or jelly, just a touch of sweetness.
Technically steel-cut oats are gluten-free, but if you are especially sensitive to gluten seek out a gluten-free variety such as Bob’s Red Mill or simply avoid oats altogether.
Bananas and peanut butter are such good buddies. Blended up is a protein-potassium packed way to start your day. Frozen bananas make this cold and creamy lusciousness. If you do not already have frozen bananas, chunk one up in small bits and toss in the freezer for at least 5 minutes. Any kind of milk will do, almond is especially nice if you want to avoid dairy. Flax adds a boost of fiber, good omegas and an interesting grainy texture, but is totally optional.
