Jam packed with blueberries, banana, Greek yogurt and oatmeal, this oatmeal blueberry smoothie has everything you need to start your day off right.
Did you know that blueberries are one of the best food to eat for good skin? Blueberries are a very rich source of antioxidants, which neutralize free radicals in your body and stop damage to your skin. They are also packed with fiber, vitamin C, K, B6 and minerals.
Bananas are rich in potassium, manganese and are a good source of dietary fiber.
Oats are a good source of vitamins, minerals, fiber and are particularly high in B vitamins.
Greek yogurt provides important nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and protein, which work together to promote strong, healthy bones. It’s a healthy source of probiotic bacteria, which aid digestion.
Banana acts as a sweetener and also helps to make this smoothie creamy. Creaminess is a MUST when it comes to smoothies.
If your blueberries and banana are fresh instead of frozen, add a few ice cubes for a thicker smoothie.
Enjoy!
