A very tasty smoothie with lots of good things in it. I also needed a bit more milk to thin it down a bit, but the flavor was great! Made for Spring 2012 PAC game.

I, too, sometimes add rolled oats to my smoothies, & your recipe here makes for a delicious drink! I did add a bit more milk & left out the sugar, but other than that, right on! Definitely a recipe I'll keep around! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block recipe tag]
