The "Lauren Conrad" Smoothie

I recently purchased a new Ninja blender so I've been pinning a ton of healthy smoothie recipes to try. Of course the "Lauren Conrad" smoothie was the first one I had to try because I'm obsessed with her. The thing that caught my eye with this particular recipe is the fact that it has oatmeal in it. I'll admit I've never thought twice about putting oatmeal in my smoothie.

The "Lauren Conrad" Smoothie

Ingredients:
  • 1 c. ice
  • 1 banana 
  • 1/2 c. frozen raspberries or strawberries (I used 1 c. strawberries)
  • 1/2 c. plain low-fat yogurt 
  • 1/2 c. old fashioned rolled oats (I changed this to 1/4 c. oats)
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 c. coconut water or juice (I used 1% milk)



I was actually pleasantly surprised with this smoothie. I love that it is really healthy and you don't have to add a bunch of sugar to it or a fruit juice like a lot of other smoothies.  It looks like this will be one of my go to breakfast meals!
