Ingredients
    For the Smoothie Base:
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries (hulled)
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup ice cubes (if using fresh strawberries)
    • Optional Toppings:
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp almond butter
  • A few sliced strawberries for garnish
Instructions
    Prepare the Ingredients
  1. 1
    If using fresh strawberries, wash, hull, and slice them. If using frozen strawberries, no need to thaw—just add them directly. Measure out all other ingredients for quick blending.
    2. Blend the Oats
  2. 2
    Add the rolled oats to a high-speed blender and blend for a few seconds until they turn into a fine powder. This helps create a smoother texture.
    3. Blend the Smoothie
  3. 3
    Add the strawberries, milk, Greek yogurt, honey (if using), vanilla extract, and ice cubes to the blender. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds.
    4. Adjust the Consistency
  4. 4
    If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk (1–2 tbsp at a time) and blend again. If it’s too thin, add a few more oats or Greek yogurt to thicken it.
    5. Serve & Enjoy
  5. 5
    Pour the smoothie into glasses. Sprinkle with chia seeds, drizzle with almond butter, or garnish with fresh strawberry slices for extra flavor and nutrition. Serve immediately and enjoy!
