This Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie satisfies breakfast AND sweets cravings alike!

Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie
I LOVE a good smoothie, especially on busy days when I can make it and take it with me in less than 5 minutes.

This one combines oats, dates and warming cinnamon spice for a delicious sip!

Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie
I generally enjoy smoothies for breakfast but lately have been making them my afternoon snack too.

Enjoying smoothies as a snack:

When I crave something sweet this smoothie completely satisfies my sweet-snack cravings AND fills me up until the next meal!

I love the combination of oats, cinnamon and almond butter for some serious cookie flavour.

What delicious and healthy ingredients are in this Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie?

Almond Milk: A great neutral flavour for this smoothie but you can also substitute regular milk or another plant-based milk (oat milk would work great!)

Vanilla Protein Powder: I especially like to use Botanica Health’s plant-based protein powder if I’m enjoying this smoothie post-workout and to keep me full for a couple of hours.

Dates: Are a great source of antioxidants and fibre.

Almond Butter: Adds a bit of protein and healthy fats to this smoothie.

Cinnamon: Brings all the flavours together.

Maple Syrup: Adds a little sweetness and is a great natural sweetener.

Rolled Oats: Makes this smoothie hearty and enhances the oatmeal cookie flavour.

Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie
Substitutes for protein powder: This smoothie gets its slight hint of vanilla from the Botanica Health Vanilla Protein Powder. However, if you’d prefer to use something else, try vanilla yogurt or add extra oats and a dash of vanilla extract.

Whether you have a sweets craving or looking to switch up your smoothie routine, this combination of ingredients makes the most delicious Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie!

These Easy Breakfast Tacos are a great way to star These Easy Breakfast Tacos are a great way to start the weekend & a perfect way to use a variety of vegetables in the fridge!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I love this recipe because it really is a ‘choose your own adventure.’ Use whichever ingredients are your favourite!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Here's how I made mine (don't forget to save this post for brunch later):⁠⠀
⁠⠀
INGREDIENTS⁠⠀
4 corn or flour tortillas⁠⠀
4 large eggs, scrambled⁠⠀
1 cup shredded sweet potato or regular potato⁠⠀
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion⁠⠀
1/2 cup thinly sliced red pepper⁠⠀
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (divided)⁠⠀
1/4 cup shredded cheese⁠⠀
salt & pepper⁠⠀
suggested garnishes: sliced radishes, chopped cilantro, hot sauce, salsa, avocado, guacamole, diced tomato or cherry tomatoes, sour cream, sliced cabbage, kale or other greens for garnish⁠⠀
hot sauce⁠⠀
⁠⠀
⁠⠀
INSTRUCTIONS⁠⠀
In a frying pan on medium heat, warm the tortillas, flipping to warm each side 2-3 minutes. Then wrap in a kitchen towel to keep warm.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
To the same frying pan add 1 tbsp olive oil and spread out shredded sweet potato. Let cook until it starts to brown around the edges, add a pinch of salt and pepper, stir and then cook a bit more until your desired doneness. Remove from pan and set aside.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
To the same pan, add another 1 tbsp olive oil and pepper and onions. Sauté for about 5-8 minutes until softened. Remove from pan and set aside.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Lastly, whisk eggs in a bowl and then add 1 tbsp olive oil to the pan along with eggs. Cook, stirring until eggs are scrambled to your desired consistency.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Assemble your tacos by spooning sweet potatoes onto each tortilla. Then layer cooked pepper and onions, scrambled eggs and top with your garnishes of choice. ⁠⠀
Enjoy warm!⁠⠀
