How Can This Oats Smoothie Help for Weight Loss?
- Fiber – Eating foods high in fiber is a simple step proven to help with weight loss. Eating foods high in fiber can help keep you full longer through consuming fewer calories.
- High Water Content – fruits are packed with fiber (see above!) and also have a high water content. Foods with a high water content can aid in weight loss by making you feel fuller and preventing your body from consuming extra calories.
- Antioxidants – High antioxidant ingredients like blueberries and flaxseed can help prevent inflammation. Inflammation and weight gain have been associated in studies, so preventing inflammation by consuming foods rich in antioxidants can help you meet your weight loss goals.
What’s In This Berry Smoothie with Oats?
I stock up on organic produce with Misfits Market – they have a fantastic selection of in-season fruits & veggies, healthy pantry items, and great food finds for a fraction of grocery store prices! You can get $10 off your first $30 box by clicking here!
- Blueberries
- Sprouted Old Fashioned Oats For this dish, I use sprouted old fashioned oats. I discovered that old-fashioned oats perform considerably better than fast oats since they hold up much better when being combined.
- Banana
- Orange
- Flaxseed Meal: I always add a scoop in my recipes for a little extra nutritional punch! This flaxseed meal has a wonderful nutty flavor too. Flaxseeds have a ton of amazing health benefits, so add a scoop to breakfasts, lunches, or smoothies!
- Plant-Based Vanilla Protein Powder – of all the protein powders, this vanilla protein powder is my absolute favorite! It’s simple, has just 4 ingredients, and tastes amazing with fruit smoothies. It’s not chalky and contains tons of plant protein to keep you going throughout the day!
- Water
- Kale – full of fiber and antioxidants!
- Natural Sweetener (Optional) – if you like sweeter smoothies, I’d recommend using a natural sweetener like honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar.
The Best Blender for the Job
I’ve owned a lot of blenders, but my high-speed Vitamix blender is definitely the best one I’ve owned. This appliance will blend even the toughest of ingredients (frozen fruit, anyone?) into pulp. I prefer using my blender to my food processor for sauces or homemade hummus, as it’s much easier to clean out the Vitamix. This is definitely one kitchen appliance we use on a daily basis, if not twice a day!
Frozen Fruit Recipes For the Win!
I used frozen blueberries in this smoothie instead of fresh. By using freezer ingredients, I can stock up when they are on sale, and use them in all kinds of great dishes. It saves me a trip to the store, and I can have frozen fruit to use in smoothies in no time.
How Do I Make This Oats Smoothie for Weight Loss?
- Add all ingredients to a high speed blender.
- Blend on low until all of the fruit and oats are combined and the smoothie has a creamy smoothness.
- Pour into your preferred glass, relax, and enjoy!
Dietary Modifications
- This recipe is vegan and gluten free – if you are adding a protein powder, make sure it keeps with any dietary modifications you require. I like this vegan and gluten free vanilla protein for this smoothie!
