Why not have a delicious dessert kind of breakfast?
This Blueberry chocolate oats can be blended into a smoothie or made with overnight oats too.
Lemon brightens the flavor of the blueberry, making the chocolate just yummy! Try warming the milk for a filling & fueling hot chocolate on a cold day.
To make the overnight oats version
use a 1/2 cup Quaker Oats in place of the raw rolled oats. Leave out the coconut flour as you will not need it, it acts as a binder for blending. Refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours.
Blueberries and Lemons are great smart food, loaded with anti-oxidants, providing a lot of energy this combination makes this recipe a great pair with a smart product. Did you know that just by having breakfast it starts your bodies metabolism. A huge sit down meal or sugar coated cereal are not the answer for a breakfast meal. Keep it below 400 calories & plenty of protein, opt for Greek yogurt if you like yogurt it’s higher in protein!

Did you like the smoothie or overnight oats better? In the winter I enjoy the smoothie as hot cocoa, now that warmer weather is here I prefer the overnight oats!
I love this handheld Oster blender for my single serve smoothie blending.
