Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt

September 12, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 23 Comments

Hi Everyone, What a sweet night!  First thing after dinner I had dessert and then told myself no more eating after 6pm because night snacking is getting me into major trouble!  So I decided to go to Petsmart with my Husband and dog and then run to Trader Joe’s to pick up just a few items. When I got to Trader Joe’s the lady at the food sampling counter, said Pssst, come here!  Do you want to try something new?  She said she was testing it for the workers, but you should try these.  Who am I to say no to Trader Joe’s?  She placed on a plate a full size, sweet, chocolaty bar and I took one bite and almost melted!  OH.MY.GOD!!!!!  It is Trader Joe’s new Blondie Bars.  I’m not telling you to go out and get sweets since this is a healthy food blog, but get them, get them now!  Eat them, enjoy them!!  Holy Crapper Dapper Dooos!!! This bar was so good!!!!  Let me tell you one more time, GET THEM!!!!

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I bought them and will be making them tonight for my Husband to take to work and of course I’ll save one or two or three for me!  he he  Ok, so then I go to the counter with my basket of food and the Guy getting ready to ring me up said go to the frozen food aisle and on the left is a box of Chocolate Covered Smore’s, get them now!!!  Ok, there pushy tonight!!  So I go get them and brought them back to him, he opened them and said now have one.  Ummm, ok!  Dam it!  Those were good too!!!  Then he said have another!  I said no, he said come on.  Ok, I ate two!!  Then when I was leaving he said take one for the road, I said I couldn’t and I didn’t!  That was will power!  What was up with Trader Joe’s tonight?  I never shop in the evening, but now I think I have too!!  The sweets tonight made me hyper, but I like it.  That’s not a good thing!!  Now I’m sitting here typing this with a cup of decaf because I needed something to drink since I had all that chocolate.  I don’t think I have consumed that much chocolate in a long time.  I have to laugh, my Husband asked what took you so long, then I told him what I just told you.  He just shook his head.  What I like chocolate and I like TJ’s.  I was excited to try something so darn delicious that it made my toes curl.  I know, I know, I am so weird!!!  That’s what happens when you stay away from sweets. So much for eating healthy tonight!  I’ll be on track tomorrow!                        So back tonight’s dessert!  This is my version of Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt!  It’s so gooooood!!!  It tastes just like pumpkin pie.  It’s sweet, creamy and hella good!!!  I have been wanting to make this, but I just haven’t.  I honestly don’t know what took me so long?  If you like pumpkin pie, and you like healthy, you will like this dessert.  Just look at how creamy it is.

This is so simple to make! All I did was take 1 cup greek yogurt, I used Trader Joe’s because I was out of Chobani, It’s only 120 calories a cup.  Then I added vanilla extract, 3 heaping tablespoons of canned pumpkin, pumpkin spice and one packet of stevia.  Threw it in my freezer for a little over an hour.  Mixed it up and I got a delicious bowl of frozen yogurt.  I told you before I have this almost every night for my dessert instead of ice cream, its way healthier!!  I decided that my dessert needed to be dressed up with some whip cream and two chopped pecans.  You know me and my whip cream!!!  It was the perfect touch to my pumpkin treat!!  The calories for this whole bowl not including whip cream, but including the pecans was only 182 calories.  Not bad for Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt!  I haven’t seen pumpkin ice cream for under 250 calories for a half a bowl.  Here you’re getting over one cup and 24 grams of protein, plus 4 grams of fiber.  Not to shabby!!!

Now that Fall is almost here, it seems the warm weather is upon us.  Today it hit near 90 and it’s suppose to be in the mid 90’s by the weekend.  I guess that means lots of frozen desserts for me.  I’m not going to complain about that!  🙂 I wanted to let you know that my blog has been running slow and I know a lot of people have told me it says error connecting.  I’m sorry for that.  I optimized my blog but it’s still running slow.  It seems my webhost server can’t handle my traffic, meaning I have to look for a new self hosting website to host my blog.  Remember my nightmare I told you about yesterday?  I am terrified that I will go through that again,so please be patient with me.  I’m hoping to take care of this over the weekend.
Well time for me to get ready for bed. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Toodles,

Jen

    I think I just went into a Diebete coma reading about those Blondies and s’mores–two of my all time favorite desserts!!!!!!! And this looks soooooo good. I’m seriously ready for the end of summer and for fall to be upon us. In fact, I”m getting seriously impatient!

      I love the summer, but honestly I’m starting to look forward to Fall! There is just something about that season. Yah I just about went into a sugar coma when I had that blonde. It was amazing, but a treat, not something I can eat weekly. I”m happy to say though for being as sweet as it was, it was only 160 calories for a bar.

    Just freezing your yogurt worked. I think because you mixed it with the pumpkin. Nice. Because I tried freezing my Cho by its self and didn’t work. Gonna try this cuz its a delicious idea!

    Jennifer,
    LOVE the story of Trader Joe’s. I go in the morning but now I might start going at night, hehe. This looks amazing! I haven’t ever made frozen yogurt but now I will. Thanks for linking up to Creative Thursday. Can’t wait to see what you’ll share next week.

    This recipe is a perfect fit for our snacks. I’m really looking forward to making this. It will provide a nice variation from the chocolate yogurt mousse I make all the time.

      A followup to say that I made this tonight and it was a hit. Great flavor. I will be making this pretty regularly. I did not have time to freeze it long enough, but that was just a minor detail. This recipe is definitely a keeper.

        Hi Susan! Sometimes I don’t freeze mine completely, but it tastes great with a chill on it. Glad you like it, it’s one of my favorite Fall desserts.

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!

Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden f Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden from last year. I’m gearing myself up to start working in the garden this weekend. It’s supposed to be mid 70’s. So if all goes planned you will be seeing quite a few gardening posts. 
🌺
Last years extreme summer heat took a major toll on my garden. I lost quite a few plants. 😫 For some reason I lost my Butterfly Bush. I plan on adding another one in the same spot. A lot of my lower flowers like Hummingbird Mint and my Coneflowers didn’t survive. We will be looking at the sprinkler system to make sure the plants are getting enough water. 
🌺
At least this garden is mainly annuals, so it should fill up with some color soon. I’m unsure what to do with my other gardens as my dogs have destroyed them. They keep on digging in the dirt. Maybe I should get them a sandbox to play in?
🌺
Have you started to work in your garden?

The boys will do anything to get on the bed, especially when you put on the @downlitebedding. I know you have heard me say it before, but they love there Downlite Bedding comforters and pillows. I have never seen 2 dogs get so excited.
🐾
We are all cozied up with the new Renew Comforter. It’s so soft and fluffy and not super heavy which is great for Spring weather. The comforter is 100% organic, 300 thread count with Lockshift baffle box construction and is machine washable!!
