Oat Milk
While oat milk can be purchased in a grocery store, it is much less expensive to
prepare it at home. You can sweeten it as you wish, or even add a pinch of cinnamon
for extra flavor. The only caveat is that this milk does not last as long in the refrigerator
as its store-bought counterpart since there are no stabilizers added.
Makes about 3 cups (750 ml)
1
cup (250 ml) old-fashioned rolled oats (not quick cooking)
4
cups (1 l) water, divided
1. Put the oats into a bowl and cover with 2 cups (500 ml) of water. Allow to sit at
room temperature for a minimum of 30 minutes, or up to overnight. After resting,
drain and rinse the oats very well.
2. Put 2 cups (500 ml) of fresh water, the soaked, drained oats and a pinch of salt into
the blender jar.
3. Run on Low for 30 seconds, and then finish blending on High until smooth, an
additional 30 seconds.
4. Use immediately. The oat milk will last up to 3 days, refrigerated. Shake, stir or
re-blend before using.

SMOOTHIE BOWLS
While most people are drinking their smoothies, turn yours into a smoothie bowl.
Blend in some yogurt, chop some nuts and seeds and top with fresh fruit to add more
flavors and textures to the smoothie. You can do this to any smoothie, but here are a
couple of recipes that can get you started.

1
