Adding oatmeal to the smoothies is piquing my interest. Can I use Steel Cut Oats, do you think? Just put them in right out of the can?

That sounds yummy. I've been making a green smoothie and adding oatmeal every morning since I got my machine. It's been about a week too. I also feel better already. Even my husband, who was a huge sceptic, feels great. >> Hi,> I am new to the group, and tend to be a "lurker" on groups,> But I made my first smoothie using oatmeal..> I used better oats organic raw pure and simple oatmeal (I was not sure what is normally used, 1cup of rice milk. a slice and half of pinapple, about 1/2 cup of frozen fruit mix, and 1/2 cup of ice.
