BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIE

INGREDIENTS
▢1 ¼ cup frozen blueberries
▢¾ cup whole milk note 1
▢¾ cup greek yogurt
▢¼ cup quick oats
▢2 tablespoons honey
▢1 tablespoon ground or sliced almonds
▢a pinch of salt

INSTRUCTIONS
Put all ingredients in the written order into your blender and blend starting slow for a couple of seconds to full power for around 60 seconds.
Serve immediately, the smoothie is best cold and as fresh as possible.

NOTES
You can also use plant based milk, oat milk fits perfectly here since we use oats already in the recipe.
Variations: Adjust the amount or kind of sweetener to your personal taste. You can add some cinnamon, vanilla or lemon zest for a little taste upgrade.
Makes around 2 1/2 cups and stays good in your fridge for up to one day, however, taste and texture is best when consumed immediately.
