If you're a fan of our
Peanut Butter Mocha Smoothie
, you're going to love this decaffeniated version.

INSTRUCTIONS (per serving)
HOME
Put oats in a coffee/spice grinder and blend until a fine powder forms.
Put oat powder and remaining ingredients in a bag or container to be used in the backcountry.
FIELD
Add 8 oz (240 mL) cold water to the bag or container.
Stir or shake vigorously to mix well and enjoy!
See meal prep tip below.
For a thicker shake, let stand 5-10 minutes allowing the chia seeds to absorb water.
NOTES
MEAL PREP TIP
Meal replacement drinks often mix better when prepared in a hard-sided container.
