Ingredients

  • 1 cup (235 ml) full-fat cow's milk (see notes)
  • 1 tablespoon (15 g) tahini paste (hulled)
  • ¼ cup (24 g) gluten-free rolled oats
  • ½ frozen banana
  • 1 cup (145 g) strawberries, washed and halved
  • 1 scoop protein powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Add all the ingredients to a blender and process on high speed for 1 to 2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add a little water if you prefer a looser consistency.
  2. Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately.

Please be aware that any ingredient additions, omissions, or substitutions will affect the nutritional information.

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute any nut milk of your choice for the full-fat cow's milk.
  • When choosing a protein powder, use a high-quality, clean protein powder from grass-fed cows with no additives, fillers, gums, or anticaking agents.
  • For a vegetarian option, omit the protein powder.
  • Make sure to use hulled tahini paste and not unhulled. Hulled tahini has had the outer shell removed from the seed and results in a milder flavor with the added benefit of higher absorption rates of calcium and other important minerals
  • You can substitute any nut butter of your choice, such as cashew, almond, or peanut, for the tahini paste.
