FAQs
Can I make these breakfasts ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the oatmeal and store it in the fridge for easy reheating in the morning. Smoothies are also great to make in advance; just blend, pour into a container, and store in the fridge.
Can I freeze any of these recipes?
You can freeze smoothies for later. Just blend and pour into freezer-safe containers. Oatmeals can also be frozen; just reheat in the microwave when needed.
How do I reheat oatmeal?
Simply place your oatmeal in a microwave-safe bowl. Add a splash of almond milk to loosen it up, then microwave for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Stir before eating.
What can I use instead of bananas?
If you don’t have bananas, applesauce is a great substitute in oatmeal or smoothies. You could also try using frozen berries in your smoothie for a different flavor profile.
