I was looking for smoothie-type recipes for Halloween: here are a few chocolatey concoctions I found on the internet.

Peanut Butter Breakfast Pudding(serves 1)
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk of choice (can use regular milk, almond, rice, or soy milk)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 a ripe banana
- 1-2 T peanut butter (or other nut butter)
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- sweetener (the amount will vary, depending on your tastebuds and what milk you use)
- optional: chocolate chips
Cook the oats, salt, and milk (either on the stove or in the microwave). Meanwhile, blend the pb and banana. Then add your vanilla, sweetener, and 1/2 of the cooked oats to the blender and re-blend. Stir in the rest of the oats. You can blend all the oats if you prefer, but if you like the chewiness, leave some un-blended.

For extra calories can add extra peanut butter, the other 1/2 of the banana, a Boost or Ensure. Also, some 100% Dagoba chocolate often finds its way into the mix. I wonder how that happens…
Ghoulishly-Good Chocolate Mudslide Oatmeal (serves 1)
Dark, murky, scary … it’s like something straight out of Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.
- 40 grams uncooked oats (1 serving)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- water or non-dairy milk
- salt, and sweetener
- optional: Amazing Grass chocolate superfood powder
- 5 grams (1T) Special Dark cocoa powder (It has a completely different taste from regular cocoa powder, so if you use regular, you might have to add a lot more for the chocolatey taste.)
1. Cook up a serving of oatmeal with the water and/or milk and a little salt (I use 400g water and 1/4tsp salt). (I like to cook the oats the day before so that I can throw breakfast together more quickly.)
2. Add the vanilla, cocoa, and more salt and sweetener to taste. (I also add more water, as some will evaporate if you leave the cooked oatmeal in the fridge overnight.)
3. Optional: Right before I eat this mess, I sprinkle on about 1/2 a little packet of the chocolate super food powder. Then I drizzle on about 1/8 cup almond milk. I don’t stir either of these things in. I love the unstirred, powdery texture.
A swampy concoction, fit for a Monster.
