[RECIPE] The final form of my daily smoothie - "Everything but the kitchen sink"

I make this almost every day (unless I'm traveling) and it's one of my two meals making my life significantly easier because I only have to worry about dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Rolled oats (dry)
  • 1/2 cup Cooked white beans (Cannellini or Navy) - I pre-make a large pot that lasts 1-2 weeks, or you can just use canned
  • 1 tbsp Ground flaxseeds
  • 1 tbsp Peanut butter (unsalted/unsweetened)
  • 1 cup Unsweetened soy milk (+ 1/4 cup water)
  • 2 Medium bananas
  • 1/2 Apple (I save the rest for a snack to eat with some walnuts in the afternoon)
  • 1 Large leaf of kale (~1 cup chopped)
  • 1 Medjool date
  • 1/4 tsp Turmeric + black pepper (for curcumin absorption)
  • 1/4 tsp Ginger (ground or a fresh slice)
  • Pinch of salt

I just put everything together in a large 32oz NutriBullet cup and blend it. Immersion blender or a Vitamix would probably work for this too.

Generally I keep things consistent, but sometimes if I have some other fruits/veggies laying around, I substitute the apple for pineapple/mango/etc. and kale for spinach/arugula - whatever is about to go bad basically.
