Chocolate Oat Milk Smoothie

A client once challenged me to create the ultimate super healthy anti-inflammatory smoothie, so I got to work creating the ultimate smoothie. Wala, this Blueberry Oat Milk Smoothie was born. I chose blueberries because berries are so crucial to our health; yet, they are not included in many savory recipes. Blueberries reduce the risk of cognitive decline, promote optimal brain function, and contain antioxidants linked to chronic disease risk reduction.

I also added super seeds like chia seeds and flaxseeds because again, we don’t often eat these powerful seeds in our everyday meals. Flax seeds and chia seeds also contain anti-inflammatory antioxidants as well as plant-based omega-3s. I added matcha green tea because green tea is helpful when it comes to promoting a positive mood. Dark chocolate also contains good mood-promoting antioxidants. Finally, this smoothie is also a great source of gut-healthy probiotics, thanks to Greek yogurt.
