Blueberries and Cream Shooters

Hi Everyone!

How are you on this Saturday?  I’m doing good now that the weekend is here.  Today Little Jenny are going to go on a 5 mile hillly hike and then to a nice healthy lunch!  I’ve been pretty good at sticking to my workouts.  I am officially getting ready to start my 3rd week of Chalean Extreme.  I feel stronger and I can see some definition in my arms.  My stomach is another story!!  I guess I should stop eating so much and that would probably go away.  I tend to eat when I’m bored and it seems I have been bored a lot lately.  I need to change that!!  I’m thinking of getting rid of my trigger foods in my house.  I’ll be better off!

Today’s recipe is simple, but fun!  I love the photos of this little healthy treat!

This is my blueberries and cream shooters.  It’s made with frozen blueberries, coconut milk and greek yogurt and a little squirt of whip cream to give it a dessert look.  It’s healthy, and a great way to get your family members to eat their fruit and yogurt.  My Husband took his like it was a real shot!!  Silly man!!

I served these in two tall shot glasses that I picked up from Napa Valley.  I thought the bottom of the cups (their plastic) were so pretty.  I’m a sucker for anything that is colorful and fun!  I made these smoothies just so I could use them!!

Don’t you think it’s fun to dress up something so simple as a smoothie and share it with someone you love?  Do you ever dress up your food to make it pretty?  Most of the time I try to make it pretty for you, then it doesn’t look so pretty when I put it on my plate.  lol I’m really not to graceful when it comes to my food!  I probably should be!

I would type more, but I need to go lay down.  My Husband and I had Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches and a HUGE thing of nachos from the Beach Deli for dinner and I have such a stomach ache.  I am not used to eating like that and I think my stomach is not to happy!!  Ugh!!!

Have a great Saturday!!!  Now get out there and enjoy the nice weather while you can!!

Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  I just love this photo!
