I hope I have some raspberries left in my freezer for this one! I have vowed to make smoothies once a day all summer long, breakfast or a dinner substitute on hot summer days and I can't wait to try ALL of the Crazy Cooking Challenge recipes from this month. Thanks so much for participating.

I've made a lot of smoothies, but I have yet to use oatmeal. I'm curious, does it really thicken up the smoothie a lot?

I'm CCC #5

Keep up the good work. Mine was definitely more of a guacamole color, but yummy nonetheless. I adore smoothies!
