Hot Chocolate Smoothie

Fuel up on a chilly winter day with this tasty and nutritious Hot Chocolate Smoothie!

Ingredients:

• 1 serving of Purely Inspired^® Organic Protein, Decadent Chocolate Flavor
• 1 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond or coconut milk
• 1 tbsp. almond butter
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• Stevia for desired sweetness

Directions:

• The night before, combine all ingredients in a blender and give it a stir to ensure that everything is well mixed. Cover and place in the fridge for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight. This step isn’t mandatory, but allowing the oats to soak for a few hours will make them easier to blend and give you a smoother, creamier texture.
• When ready to eat, blend on high until oats are fully broken down and a smooth, creamy consistency is reached.
• Pour the smoothie into a small saucepan set over medium heat and bring to a simmer or boil, depending on how hot you want it. If the smoothie is too thick, add more almond or coconut milk until your desired consistency is reached.
• When your smoothie reaches your preferred temperature, transfer it to a heat-resistant glass or mug, and enjoy!
