Strawberry Oatmeal Smoothie Recipe

Not your typical fruit smoothie! The combination of fresh or frozen fruit, kefir, and whole grain Quaker©​ oats makes this smoothie a well-rounded breakfast.

2. Let cool.

For smoothie:

1. In blender, combine 1 cup cooked oatmeal, half of a ripe banana, 1/4 cup frozen (or fresh) strawberries, 3/4 cup Kefir, and ice cubes. Blend until smooth.
2. Serve immediately with fresh strawberry garnish (optional).
