This banana oatmeal smoothie
is a weekly staple in my morning routine.
Angela’s motivational post on Monday,
made me think of ways in which I try to
stay healthy all why being satisfied
by the food I eat.
This smoothie is a protein packed meal
with a boost of energy.
It helps make my day start off on the right foot.
I love to make this a couple times a week,
especially when my bananas have ripened.
The sugar in the bananas alone help
to sweeten this yummy drink.
Sometimes if I am not lucky enough to have
a few speckled pieces of this fruit,
I add half a packet of Truvia into the blend.
Hope you enjoy one of my favorite finds.

The Sambazon was something I added as we purchased them from Costco. This smoothie would work well alone or with the addition of ground flax seed or chia seeds.
