# Expert Advice:
01 -
- Its ready in five minutes flat, which means zero excuses for skipping breakfast.
- The oats secretly make it thick and filling enough to keep you full until lunch without tasting like porridge.
02 -
- Fresh fruit at room temperature will give you a thinner, juice like smoothie, so freeze your chunks ahead of time if you want that milkshake thickness.
- Letting the blended smoothie sit changes the texture as oats absorb liquid, so drink it right away for the best consistency.
03 -
- Freeze your overripe mango and pineapple in a single layer on a sheet pan before bagging them, so they never clump into one solid brick.
- Bloom the oats in the milk for five minutes before blending if your blender is on the weaker side, it softens them dramatically.
