Because smoothies are all the rage in my house right now. What’s for breakfast? SMOOTHIES.  What kind of smoothies? Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Protein Smoothie. That’s a mouthful of words, isn’t it?

The smoothies that I bring into this world rarely contain dairy. First, milk is my stomach’s arch nemesis. My stomach and milk have duked it out many times. As a result, milk often wins the battle and I end up with a stomach ache. However, if I utilize the Lactaid super power, I’m usually okay with milk. Lactaid helps me destroy milk’s evil, destructive digestive destroyer lactose. BUT, I don’t really like taking lactaid.

And I don’t like nasty battles, so I play it safe and make non-dairy smoothies.

If milk is your arch nemesis too, then this smoothie is your new best friend. I made this Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Protein Smoothie with Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Vanilla Almond Milk with a hint of honey. No lactose. Nada. None. Zilch.
