I have a sweet tooth.  There is no question about that.
And sweets have always been my weakness when it comes to healthy snacking.
So, I went on a mission to create a few smoothie recipes that taste like some of my favorite sweet treats. 

The idea for this Oatmeal "Raisin" Cookie Green Smoothie came to me after I had tried a sip of my daughter's prune juice.  The first thing that came to mind was how much it tasted like raisins to me.  Hmmmmm... raisins. How could I use this prune juice in a green smoothie?
Honestly, I am not a huge fan of raisins, but I do like a good oatmeal raisin cookie... so the wheels started spinning and this Oatmeal "Raisin" Cookie Green Smoothie was concocted and taste-tested. 
And yum! :)
