Very delicious and filling. The first time I soaked the rolled oats in soy milk for about 15-20 minutes. It wasn't too bad but the second time it was just right. I soaked the oats overnight and the next morning, it blended well. Both times I used low fat vanilla soy milk and vanilla extract as well. My husband and I loved it! Next time I will go with Sarah Jo's technique and put oats in a blender before mixing with the other ingredients. Definitely a keeper. Thank you Astrophe for sharing.

I made this as written except I didn't use frozen strawberries and I used regular whole milk instead of soy. It tasted great and I wouldn't change a thing. It has everything and makes a great meal.

I just made one I did not have frozen strawberries, but I did have fresh and they were so large that I only used 8. I had 2% milk, so I made it work. It tasted good I am on my way to the gym I will find out if it will be filling for me. I followed the recipe and should have made one serving. I put the other serving in freezer was not sure how it would do in the refrig. I will be making again next time I think I will do my own thing.

Maybe I should have read the reviews first and ground the oats. I did not like the texture or the aftertaste of this smoothie, and I drink a lot of them. This recipe has had great reviews, but it's not my favorite strawberry smoothie on this site. OK, but I doubt I'll make it again.

Delicious and filling. My little kids love to help add the ingredients to the blender, and they devour it!

I used coconut milk, as I don't care for soy, used only 1tsp.sugar. Never had a smoothie with oatmeal, this is a keeper. Thanks for sharing.

Yum! I love this smoothie. You'll need a really good blender to get a completely smooth drink, but I like the texture of the oats myself so my cheap blender is fine.

Great smoothie! The advice to grind up the oats first worked out well. I froze both the strawberries and banana, and I liked the texture of the oatmeal. I would try making this without sugar next time to be healthier.

I like yogurt instead of the milk and I add a tablespoon of extra virgin coconut oil to make it the ultimate healthy smoothie, yummm! Thanks for the great idea of adding the oatmeal to a smoothie, who'da thunk? It will keep you full for hours!
