Equipment

Blender

Ingredients

1/4 cup Rolled Oats
3 Tablespoons Peanut Butter Powder (like PB2) substitute 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup Mini or Regular Chocolate Chips, plus extra for topping
1 Banana (optional: see note)
2 cups Vanilla Greek Yogurt
1 cup Milk (any type)
1 cup Ice

Instructions

Combine rolled oats, peanut butter powder, chocolate chips, banana, yogurt, and milk in a blender and blend until super smooth (this will insure that the rolled oats get fully incorporated and aren't gritty).
Add the ice to the blender and blend until the ice is fully broken up and the smoothie is smooth. Serve immediately, with a few chocolate chips on top if you'd like.

Notes

When I originally published this recipe, I used peanut butter powder instead of creamy peanut butter. Since that time, I found that I more often have actual peanut butter in my pantry. Either one works well.

Banana - While the addition of a banana gives this smoothie just the right creaminess and thickness, if you don't have one, don't let that stop you. This works well even without a banana.
