    I was long overdue for a different flavor profile in the morning. Very good!

    We enjoyed this smoothie quite a bit, but we made two modest adjustments. We preferred it with a bit more oat milk. We increased milk to 1 cup, but to keep the smoothie a bit thick, we added 2 teaspoons of old fashioned oats, and blended the uncooked oats with the rest of the smoothie ingredients. Another team member also increased the oat milk, but added a few raw almonds to thicken it back up, instead of the oat flakes. All three versions are great!
