- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or fat-free milk)
- 1/4 cup whole oats
- 3/4 cup frozen mango
- 1/4 cup plain nonfat yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1. Blend milk, yogurt, and oats in blender for 15 seconds on high speed.

Tips:
Sometimes it can be hard to include the recommended 2-3 cups of vegetables in your diet each week. Adding spinach to a basic smoothie boosts the nutritional content without compromising taste! Spinach is a super food high in antioxidants and many important nutrients including iron, potassium, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids. Oats add an extra boost of fiber to help keep you full until lunch!
