perfect for breakfast or light dinner! Instead of the soy milk & vanilla, I used 1 cup vanilla flavored non-fat yogurt; it still came out perfectly. Even my husband (a junk-food junkie) loved this.

Don't leave out the sugar entirely, otherwise the oat taste pops out. As suggested I also powdered the oatmeal some before putting the rest of the ingredients in. I also added a few cubes of ice, it was still thick enough for me. Great that I can have this for breakfast and still feel i'm getting nutrition/fiber not just having fun :) plus just fruit is never filling.

So thick, I almost couldn't swallow it down and the oatmeal had an overwhelming raw taste along with the texture of swallowing little pieces of paper. The actual 'taste' wasn't horrible that is why I gave it 2 stars however, the texture leaves A LOT to be desired.

awesome and so filling! i suggest added a spoonful of freshly ground flax for some added fiber!

This is so good and so easy. I made it with water instead of soy milk and omitted the sugar. It's easy to take on the run and very filling!

yummy , I used chocolate almond milk and it was awesome.

I used frozen mixed berries, of blueberry, raspberry, and lingonberry. It's just what I had on hand in the freezer. I plan to make this again, but next time I will put it through a sieve to get all those little seeds out! But the taste was great, and it had a nice consistency. My hubby and I are always trying to get more oatmeal in our diet, so this was a perfect cold drink for us!

This was really good, except I used regular milk instead of soy milk and blueberries instead of strawberries, since that's what I had. Flavors nice, but the blueberry skins wouldn't grind up. I also added a shot of orange juice, which added a little sourness to the sweetness of the banana and blueberries.

really good!! However, next time I think I will add a full teaspoon of vanilla and only a 1/3 cup of oats.

Great on-the-go breakfast! I used regular milk and left out the sugar - quite tasty. The banana and the oatmeal make for a great slow-burning energy to fuel the morning. It was very thick - almost needed a spoon - which isn't bad at home, but if I'm running out the door, I need something easier to drink. May add more milk to thin it up a bit if that's the case.

I'm not vegan, so I used organic skim milk. Very good. I followed another reviewer's advice and put the oatmeal in the blender for a bit first. I also added some chocolate protein powder and used it as a post-race smoothie.

This recipe has become our standard breakfast for the past 6 months -- thanks so much!! My system is to layer the oatmeal, then banana, then plain soy milk in the blender and let that soak while we have our morning coffee (about half an hour). Then I blend those 3 together at a high speed to break up the oatmeal. Then I add a small handful of frozen raspberries and blend thoroughly; then about 8-10 frozen strawberries and blend again. It makes enough for my husband to have a full glass and for me to have about 2/3 of a glass. We love having all these healthy things to start our day and we don't feel the need to add any sweeteners or other ingredients. So yummy!

Yummy! I didn't have soy milk, so I used about 1/4 c plain yogurt. Replaced the strawberries with frozen blueberries and threw in a bit of ice. I added pomegranite/blueberry juice to get it to the right consistency. The oatmeal was different, but definitly not bad. I made it for my husband who was on a fast, but my kids drank most of it! Will make this again!

Very good smoothie, which I will make again. I added a few cubes of ice and a scoop of carbless and tasteless soy powder for additional protein.

This recipe was delicious, it's a staple of my diet now! I use more vanilla and milk, and use light frozen strawberries, and drop the sugar, but it's still absolutely delicious and keeps me satisfied throughout the morning...my fiance loved it, too!

Awesome! This drink is so good, and a good source of energy in the morning. I added nonfat plain yogurt, and used soy vanilla milk. I also used splenda. This will be made often.
