Skinny Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie…Just Like Old Times but Healthier!

You know when you find a place to eat and after a few times of visiting it, you have your favorite meal there? Well that was me way back in my college days with a favorite sweet treat. There was this place called Shakey’s (RIP-Shakey’s) that served tons of varieties of ice creams and concretes (you know ice cream with your favorite candies mixed into it?). Well my favorite concrete was this Oatmeal Cookie Dough flavor…It was heaven. After Shakey’s closed, I never thought I’d find that flavor again until this Skinny Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie came into my life.

I know, it sounds dramatic, but all these years later I still pine for that Oatmeal Cookie Dough concrete. (And I know my sister does too.) But with this smoothie recipe, suddenly I get all of the flavors of that concrete with none of the guilt! I found this recipe from Pinterest on the site Gimme Some Oven…don’t you just love that name?!

Seriously. I’m so excited about this smoothie. I love when you can not only make a healthy smoothie to snack on but when it makes you remember one of your favorite times, it’s a major win!

So let’s talk about what is in this Skinny Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie, because odds are good you have everything (or nearly everything) already on hand. I know I did. You’ll first blend some old-fashioned oats until they’re finely ground. Then just add a frozen banana, almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon, ground ginger, and freshly grated nutmeg to the blender. Turn it on and blend until the smoothie is totally smooth and enjoy!

That’s it, and you’ve got a delicious smoothie that tastes like a real treat. And it’s packed with good for you ingredients…love that!

I can’t wait for you to try this Skinny Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie recipe. Be sure to click away for the recipe and step by step instructions. Happy blending!!

  • If I've learned one thing over the past decade, it's this. Try to do something every day to take care of yourself and make you smile. Life is too short not to. Today I went for a walk over lunch, and cooked a delicious dinner just for me. What did you do to show yourself some love today?

  • Say hello to my current favorite snack. Just some toasted @foodforlifebaking Ezekiel bread, @justins maple almond butter (kinda obsessed) @wholesomesweet honey, @sprouts cacao nibs, and @traderjoes cinnamon. Yep I can easily eat this snack every day! What's your go to snack?

  • Yes. Just do it! There are so many reasons we don't do things and excuses we make. News flash: There will never be a perfect time to do the things you want. Just do them. And if they're things you know you need to do but dread them, well just do them anyway. I'm attempting this myself with packing as much of my apartment up as I can in advance. I've also totally embraced budgeting and am finally finding a way to make it fun and exciting! So where are the areas you need to just do it in the life?

  • Ah Sunday....today it's crazy cold so I'm hibernating a bit. I'm trying to spend my day as a mix of productive and relaxing. One of my relaxing tasks has been changing up the skin on my iPad. I loved the bright colors yet airy vibes of this one from @decalgirl. Kinda perfect for Spring and Summer. Now I'm thinking I'll work more on packing and then watch a couple of movies. What are you up to today?!
