This tastes great and is so easy to whip up when your craving a smoothie! Sometimes i will add a little bit of flax seed.

Hey vegwithedge! That sounds good - how about with soy milk instead of OJ and oats in it to add fibre and slow carbs mmm... I love smoothies! I just posted two of my faves on this board you should try them out hehe!

You could also use crystal light (it's vegan, right??) instead of orange juice, or freeze the crystal light into ice cubes and blend instead of using organge juice and ice. It's very yummy!
