This smoothie recipe takes me back to when I broke my jaw long before Smoothie King, Jamba Juice, Juiceland, etc. existed. My mouth was wired shut for six weeks, so I was on a liquid diet for the entire period. Needless to say, my blender became my best friend.

I tried all different types of ingredients and combinations from savory to sweet, dairy vs. non-dairy, ice and no ice, and indulgent to healthy. Yogurt (including Greek yogurt), however, was a consistent ingredient both for the consistency it brought and the protein. Given I couldn’t eat solid food a protein source was crucial.

Beats and Eats (music to pair with blueberry smoothie)

Pairing Big Daddy Kane's Taste of Chocolate with an almond milk blueberry smoothie is a perfect fusion of smooth, soulful vibes with a rich, chocolaty flavor profile. Just as Big Daddy Kane’s smooth flow and deep beats bring a laid-back, luxurious energy, this smoothie delivers a creamy, velvety texture from almond milk and cocoa that elevates the natural sweetness of blueberries.

The hints of chocolate in the smoothie complement the song’s warm, mellow tones, while the blueberries add a fresh burst, balancing out the richness just like the playful undertones in the track. Enjoying this smoothie alongside Taste of Chocolate is like savoring a treat for both the tastebuds and the soul—smooth, soulful, and full of flavor.

Blueberry Oatmeal Smoothie Ingredients

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are other benefits of oats/oatmeal?

Oats have the added benefit of being high in fiber and thus adds a certain level of satiety or that feeling of being full. Oatmeal also does wonders for cholesterol and heart health. I consume it daily in some form or another but mostly in smoothies, overnight cold oats, or hot bowl of oatmeal. For more in-depth guide for cooking oatmeal and recipes using oats try my guide for how to make oatmeal.

Since I eat oatmeal daily one for the taste but two to keep the cholesterol and heart in check I use smoothies to break up the monopoly. This is a blueberry smoothie made without yogurt and features heart-healthy, cholesterol-lowering ingredients like blueberries, dark chocolate, and oats but tastes good enough to be a dessert. That lil bit of chocolate takes this to another level.

Can I Make This Almond Milk Smoothie Without Ice?

Ice is optional in this recipe. Ice has its pros and cons. Ice adds to the consistency and makes the smoothie cold and a bit more refreshing. I like my smoothies ice cold vs luke-warm so If I go without ice, I will be sure to use frozen fruit, including freezing bananas ahead of time.

What can I use instead of yogurt in a smoothie?

• You can use other liquid bases such as almond milk, coconut milk, juice, or even water.
• Silken tofu is a good alternative for a creamy texture.
• Frozen fruit will also help make the smoothie thicker.

How can I make my smoothie thicker without yogurt?

• You can use frozen fruit, such as frozen bananas, berries, or mango, to achieve a thick consistency in the smoothie.
• Avocado, chia seeds, and flax seeds can also be added to increase the thickness.

Can I make a smoothie without yogurt and still get protein?

Yes, you can add protein powder, nut butter (almond butter is my fav), or seeds like chia or hemp to your smoothie for a protein boost.

How can I make my smoothie sweeter without yogurt?

• You can add natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or dates to taste.
• You can also use fruits with a high sugar content like mango, pineapple, or ripe banana

Can I make a smoothie without yogurt and still make it creamy?

• Silken tofu is a great alternative to yogurt for a creamy texture.
• Avocado is also a great option for a creamy texture and healthy fats.
• You can also use nut milk like coconut milk or cashew milk to make your smoothie creamy.
