Thin Mint Mousse

March 14, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 24 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I got my Jillian Michaels Kickboxing DVD and I have to say it wasn’t to bad.  I found Jillian to be so much better in this workout compared to the past few.  Personally I found in the past workouts she was annoying.  She complained about Facebook and people saying her workouts aren’t tough, and then she kept favoring the girls, but in this workout her attitude was so much better.  She was tough, which I like, but she didn’t show favoritism and included you in the workout.  Also in this workout, it’s a classroom setting with a bunch of girls, not just the normal additional two.

The workout is broken down into 3 twenty-minute segments, upper body, lower body and abs.  Each segment has four circuits, which you repeat twice.  I did the upper & lower workouts, but couldn’t manage to try the 3rd.  For each circuit you really don’t need any equipment except for a light pair of dumbbells, which you really don’t use.  In her description of the workouts, she claims to use light weights, but in the actual workout she says use heavy weights.  I used 5lbs. dumb bells and I know I could have went heavier.  If I recall in the two segments I did, I think I used the dumbbells for two or three of the exercises.  This DVD is cardio based over strength training.  In the recommendations of the workout it says to add this 20 minute workout to your resistance training, 5 times a week.

For the upper body segment, I found it ok, not to challenging, but it went quick and I had a good workout.  As for the lower body, I found it complicated to follow some of the moves,  Jillian doesn’t give a good example of showing or explaining them.  She moves quick, and basically you have to try to catch up or figure it out, I went at my own pace so I could do them in proper form.  With that all said I was sweating bullets on the lower body workout.  That hasn’t happened in a while.  I figure a few tries I should get the moves down.  There is a tutorial on explaining the moves, but honestly I didn’t watch it, I figured I’ve been doing kickboxing long enough, that I know proper form.   So if you’re looking for a quick cardio blast this is a good DVD to get.  I like it because it went fast, it wasn’t boring and I burned about 400 calories in 40 minutes.  Not to shabby!  This is a good one to add in your cardio rotation.  Once I do the 3rd segment, abs, I’ll let you know what I think.  Rating from 1 – 5, I give it about 3.75 – 4.  I’ll definitely be doing this workout a few times a week.  I found this video from You Tube that shows the workouts, so you can see what the workouts are like. I’m not looking forward to the Ab workout!  Jillian Michaels Kickbox Fast Fix


Now that I did my workout, I had to have dessert to get those calories back that I burned.  Just kidding, but I did make a wonderful, pretty low-calorie dessert for dinner tonight.  But first my inspiration for tonight’s dessert, it was Girl Scout Cookies.  I told myself, no Girl Scout Cookies this year, and then I was leaving the grocery store with a few bags of healthy food and then I saw a cute little blonde girl look at me, and her face turned sad and she said “Would you like to buy some Girl Scout Cookies?”  I stood there telling myself, no, no, no and than her little face was looking so hopeful, I said ok.  So there you go, a 8 year old suckered me into buying cookies.  At least I only bought one box.  The box has been sitting in my cupboard for two weeks, and I kept thinking what am I going to do with them?  I don’t just want to eat them, there not very healthy for you, 4 cookies 160 calories, and who can only eat 4?  Well, it’s a treat, it’s once a year and it’s only one box.  So with that said I made this wonderful Thin Mint Mousse.

This is not the healthiest dessert in regards to ingredients, but it’s not bad for a mousse that includes Girl Scout Cookies.  It’s only 145 calories, and 2 grams of fat, I can live with that, especially since it tastes so good. Trust me, it tastes good!

This mousse is made with Jello sugar free White Chocolate instant pudding, Cool Whip, mint extract, Girl Scout Cookies and food coloring.  This dessert literally took me 6 minutes to make.  The taste is amazing.  The mousse, not including the cookie topping tasted like Thin Mint Cookies and than the added cookie topping was a bonus!  Big Bonus!!!

You should have seen Jenny and my Husbands eyes light up when they saw me taking pictures of this dessert.  They asked is that for us? Of course, but you have to eat all your dinner.  Sure enough they ate all their dinner and before I could even finish mine, they ran to the fridge and grabbed there dessert.  Geez, I never seen them eat so fast!  There review was O.M.G, this is so good!  They loved it.  My Husband doesn’t usually eat dessert but he was sure to grab one of these mousse’s, I had to ask him to please wait for me.  He didn’t want to, but he did!

If you’re a Girl Scout Thin Mint Fan than this dessert is for you.  It’s extremely creamy, not overly minty, just enough and a perfect little dessert for St. Patrick’s Day.  These would be so fun to serve in shot glasses for a party.  If you serve them, they will sure be a hit!

Thin Mint Mousse – Inspired by Girl Scout Cookies

Ingredients:

2 cup fat-free milk

1 1 oz box Jell-O Sugar Free, Fat Free White Chocolate Instant pudding mix

1 8oz container Cool Whip, Fat Free, thawed

1/4 tsp. mint extract

6 girl scout thin mint cookies, crushed

3 drops green food coloring (add more for desired shade)

Directions:

In a small bag or food processor, crush the thin mints, set a side. I used a rolling pin.

In a medium bowl Whisk the milk and the pudding mix together for 2 minutes. Fold in mint extract, food coloring and 2 cups of cool whip (half of the container) and fold/mix until the color is no longer white.

Time to layer.

In 6 small bowls, evenly layer the bottom of each dish with 1/2 the pudding mixture, top with the cool whip, add remaining pudding mixture and add crushed cookie.

Optional Toppings:  Whip Cream and a Girl Scout Cookie

Makes 6 servings (about 1 1/4 cups each)

Calorie per serving:  145,  Fat:  2,  Cholesterol:  1.7,  Sodium:  294,  Carbs:  26,  Fiber:  0,  Sugar:  10.7,  Protein:  2.9

That’s it for me.  Lots of dinner dishes to do and I honestly need to stretch.  With it raining outside, I never got out of the office and I sat all day and sat quite a bit at home.  So time to get my groove on.

I heard that voting ends on Monday, so as a friendly reminder, as you know I was nominated for Healthiest Eating Food Blog on Fitness Magazine and would love it if you voted for me.  So far I only have 40 votes,  if you like my blog, please vote for Peanut Butter and Peppers.  To vote for me, just go here. Thank you, much appreciated!!

Happy Wednesday, half way through the week!!!  Woohoo!!!

    I used real whipped cream instead of Cool Whip. That is nothing but garbage. Making your own whipped cream doesn’t take much time – and it’s sooo well worth the little bit of extra time!

      I agree! When writing this post, I used Cool Whip, but now I go for the real stuff because I know what is in it. I heard Cool Whip is made with plastic and no real ingredients what so ever.

Hi Everyone! The weather is starting to warm up h Hi Everyone!  The weather is starting to warm up here and I have Spring fever!  #sponsored I’ve been working in the garden beds, planting annuals and enjoying some fresh air and sunshine.
🌸
I freshened up my gorgeous patio set that I got from @rstbrands. I dressed up my table by adding some Ranunculus and a cute little bunny to a tray. Doesn’t scream Spring?
🌸
I also added some throw pillows and a cute blanket to keep you warm on a chilly evening. The Yuri 4 piece patio set is made out of certified eucalyptus wood has held up so beautifully with the heavy rains and winds.
🌸
I love the shade of blue of the cushions, it reminds me of the sunny blue skies. The cushions are also so comfortable to sit on. The best part is that the covers have zippers on them so you can take the covers off and wash them.
🌸
Spring fever is hitting me hard this year and I can’t wait to enjoy the great outdoors.
🌸
Do you get Spring fever?

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?

I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

That means I get to go shopping for some new pieces to add to the bathroom. I am on the search for is some new open shelves to go above the toilet. If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?

Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I took  advantage of the sunshine and 64 degree weather we had. I did some therapeutic yard work and I planted Pansies, Stock and Ranunculus in the garden. It felt so nice to be outside and to see flowers.
🌸
This weekend I finally repotted my Coffee Plant and Dracaena plant. They had roots growing out of the pot. I have no idea how the Dracaena (plant on right) plant survived. The roots were so dry and it was in about a 3” container.  I looked up the plant and it can grow to 10’. Not the care I gave mine. That little plant is about a year old.
🌸
If your looking for a low light, easy to care for plant that takes neglect, get a Dracaena. I’m proof that it can take neglect.
🌸
Basic repotting plant tips
1. Get a pot about 2-4” larger in diameter then the pot your current plant is in. Make sure it has a drainage hole at the bottom.
2. Use indoor potting soil, preferably organic.
3. Carefully take plant out of current pot, check if the roots are root bound, if so, try to untangle a little bit. Just be gentle.

Did you watch the Super Bowl? I wasn’t a fan of the game, but I enjoyed some of the commercials. The Cheetos one with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunas made me laugh. I didn’t care for the Doritos commercial with my man Matthew McConaughey.
