Looking for a healthy, low calorie, high-protein smoothie for those busy mornings? Give this oatmeal smoothie a try. Not only is it perfect for breakfast, but it is a great workout recovery beverage.
Are protein smoothies a good meal replacement?
If you are thinking about using smoothies as a meal replacement, make sure they have enough protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats, which will help sustain you until the next meal and also provide the necessary nutrients for your body.
Which peanut butter is best for protein smoothies?
Since I began using powdered peanut butter, I have not gone back to regular peanut butter. I like the way that powdered peanut butter is not greasy or sticky, giving smoothies a perfect consistency. The fact that I can get the protein in my smoothies minus all the calories of regular peanut butter, makes this a great choice. (ps. They are not paying me for advertising their product :))
I use the peanut powder with cocoa for my oatmeal smoothies, but it tastes great with the regular peanut powder as well.

Which ingredients make a good breakfast smoothie?
A good combination of fruits, nuts, and milk make a great smoothie. For this recipe, I use bananas, oatmeal, almond milk, cinnamon, and peanut powder.
There are other great additions to your smoothies. Chia seeds, almonds, dry fruits, and greek yogurt are only a few of them.
Get creative! This is only one idea that I hope sparks your creativity to making your perfect breakfast smoothie.
