Discovering wonderful smoothies with oatmeal here on Zaar, I was moved to create my own. This fruity, low-fat breakfast will keep you going all morning. [If you're like me, you may be tempted to eat the whole batch ]

SERVES 2 , 2 breakfast smoothies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups frozen blueberries
3 small kiwi fruits (use VERY ripe ones!)
2 large bananas, frozen
3-5 dates (I used fresh ones, but dried would be fine)
2/3 cup rolled oat
1/2-1 cup water

Directions

1
Cover the dates ( however many you like, depending on sweetness) with 1/2 cup very warm water, cover and let them soften up for about 5 minutes.
2
Break up the bananas into chunks and add to the food processor with the kiwi and blueberries.
3
Add the dates and their soaking water. Blend well, till most date chunks are gone.
4
Add the oats and blend again, till they are the consistency you like. You will probably need to add more water, this gets very thick.
5
Enjoy with a spoon!

Made this for a quick breakfast this morning on my way out the door before work. I have never had a smoothie with oats before and wasn't quite sure what to expect but it was delicious.

This is a great pick-me-up after my morning workout. I made enough for two servings and ate both. And, yes you need a spoon. Followed the recipe exactly as printed. Used steel oats instead of rolled, but don't know if that would make a difference per taste. Wonderfully tasting and looking forward to having this when warm weather hits and coming in from a long run. Thanks Amber~ Made for AU recipeswap-March! Absolutely 5 stars
