This recipe did not turn out well for me at all. I found it way too thick and I the overall flavor was not my thing. I did like the flavor and texture that the oatmeal brought to the smoothie and I will try incorporating it into other smoothie recipes I like.

Tastes great, very filling! I added 2 tsp. of sugar. Next time I will decrease the oats to just under a 1/2 cup & add a splash of O.J. for a more dimensional flavor. I have found that adding a Coffee Mate French vanilla (in liquid form) tastes great in smoothies too.

I am not a fan of drinks where you can taste bits that get stuck in your teeth. This is what happened for me where the oatmeal got chopped up and turned into a powder. I compare this to those Protein shake drinks where you can taste the powder. I wonder if I cooked the oatmeal first if it would have been different. Anyway I guess this was a bit better then those Protein shakes but it is not for me.

This was really good. I made it exactly as directed (using cows milk), but my frozen strawberries were sliced, so I just added them until it was thick. Both my young kids and my husband loved it, as did I. The oatmeal adds a bit of a gritty texture, but it also adds a really good flavor. I had never thought about putting oats in smoothies, but I really like it.

Delicious! I have tried other smoothie recipes with varying degrees of success and this one really delivers! It is smooth & creamy and just the right thickness. I didn't have soy milk so I just used 1 cup of skim and did add the vanilla & sugar. Tasted great! This one will be a regular!

I absolutely love smoothies!! They are one of my favorite breakfast items....except I made this one for my lunch today. I love the oatmeal in it, but think that 1/2 a cup is a little too much. I used quick cooking oats since that's what I normally have on hand and substituted a container of strawberry yogurt for the strawberries. I have not been able to find a decent batch of strawberries yet this year. They are not sweet for some reason, so I'm a little hesitant to buy them. Anyway, the oatmeal made this smoothie VERY filling and I too omitted the vanilla and sugar since I used vanilla flavored soy milk. Great new find...thanks Astrophe.

Being a chocolate lover, I didn't try this recipe as written, though it does sound good. I used chocolate soy milk instead of regular, and in place of the sugar, I used chocolate milk powder. Yum!

Great quick and healthy breakfast! The banana was sweet enough so I eliminated the sugar. I've also tried it using less milk and some O.J.!

I was eager to try this, as I have to eat breakfast or I get physically ill, and I hate breakfast foods. I love strawberries, and I love oatmeal, so why not? It was a little bland, but not bad. I didn't feel hungry at all. Next time I will try adding some other fruits, maybe some spices? Overall, I will use this recipe again, but it needs modified a bit.

This is a great morning smoothie. If I don't have frozen strawberries I make sure the banana is frozen.. one of them has to be or else it is too liquidy. Also, substituting half the strawberries with peaches is a great combo too. This recipe says 2 servings, but really it's the size of a regular smoothie you'd get at a place like Jamba Juice.

This is a delicious smoothie. I used 1% milk and did add the sugar and vanilla. It is very filling and so easy and fast. The oatmeal is a little gritty, but I didn't mind. Give this a try!

I loved this smoothie! My husband did not like it because of the oatmeal, but the oatmeal is what I liked the most. I suggest 1/4 cup oatmeal, finely ground, for pickier eaters.

What a great idea to add oatmeal to a smoothie! A good way to get your oatmeal in the summer without having to heat it up! I also added ground flax seed to this for omega 3 fatty acids...Even more nutritious!

This is one of my favorite smoothie recipes, now. It's great! It's so good that it's hard to believe that it's so healthy. I didn't even have to add any sugar (honey would be a better option, though, if sweetener is needed, I think), and the vanilla adds a nice flavor. If you don't have soy milk, use regular milk, and you can add soy powder to it. I hope you'll try it.

This is indeed very filling, it is great for quick breakfast. I vary it with other frozen fruits. Maybe a little gritty with the rolled oats but still nice and thick.
