Why It Works

• Banana adds natural sweetness and potassium

• Oats provide slow-digesting energy and fiber

• Cottage cheese boosts protein and creaminess without protein powder

---

Optional Boosts

• 💪 Protein: Add 1 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter

• 🧠 Omega-3s: Add 1 tsp chia or flax seeds

• 🥬 Greens: Add a small handful of spinach (you won’t taste it)

• 🍫 Treat version: Add 1 tsp cocoa powder

Tip

If your blender isn’t very powerful, soak the oats in milk for 5–10 minutes first for a smoother texture.
