Do you ever wish you could eat a cookie for breakfast? Without feeling guilty about it? Yeah, me too. I've been tinkering in the kitchen with an idea that will satisfy my early morning sweet tooth, but also give me a healthy start to the day. And friends, I've finally mastered it. This is a smoothie that has all the wonderful flavors of an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, but with healthy ingredients like oats, nonfat yogurt, skim milk, and our childhood favorite—Ovaltine. It's like drinking a frosty cup of oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. I love this smoothie for breakfast, but I'll be honest with you, I've made this a few times for dessert too. It's delicious. Try it out!
