Flavored like Fall Smoothie

Flavored like Fall Smoothie

Although my photography skills may need help, one thing Im sure of is how comforting this smoothie is. Since fall is just around the corner, what would be better than to toast its coming with a smoothie? 

Blend together: 
1 medium diced red apple
1 banana 
2 Tablespoons dry oats
About 6 chopped almonds 
1/2 cup plain yogurt (I use Greek yogurt)
1 teaspoon cinnamon 
A dash of nutmeg 
1 cup of ice 


I like toying around with the spices and amount of ice used, so have fun with creating your own masterpiece. It tastes like apple pie in a glass! Enjoy!
