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.

Happy Thursday! We have been having 100 degree wea Happy Thursday! We have been having 100 degree weather for the past couple of days, but now we are going to cool off into the 70’s. Such a big change, that it’s going to feel cold. 
🌸
My plants have seemed to have survived the heat pretty good, except for my Black Eyed Susan’s that I planted a few weeks ago. Hopefully they will bounce back with the cooler weather we will get. 
🌸
This is a photo of my garden that I took a couple of days ago. It’s filling in nicely. I planted a small Mexican Sunflower plant a few weeks ago and I’m looking forward to watching it grow. I planted one last year and it grew so fast that it ended up collapsing and I had to tear it out. I’m hoping planting a smaller one, it will get more if a root system and hold up to its height. It’s such a cool plant with beautiful orange flowers. 
🌸
What is your favorite flower to grow?

Happy Tuesday! I thought it would be fun to create Happy Tuesday! I thought it would be fun to create an outdoor tablescape. It’s such a pretty space to see and I love how you can make the outdoors an extension of your home. I loved looking out my window and seeing my table. Now I wouldn’t leave it up like I do my dining room, but it was fun to keep it up for the day. 
🌸
Now let me tell you, it is so hard for me to photograph outside. I tried to do it before sunrise and I tried again at sunset. Ugh! I just can’t get the right lighting. I don’t know how so many people make there outdoors look so pretty. If you have any tips, let me know. I’d appreciate that.
🌸
Do you like to photograph outside?

Happy Monday! Last week of work until vacation. I Happy Monday! Last week of work until vacation. I can’t wait. I haven’t had any vacation since Christmas, except for a few random days here and there. I have no plans, but I sure plan on enjoying it.
🌿
Speaking of Christmas, I don’t think I have showed you my console table me since then. I finally finished decorating it. It’s been half done for about a month. Before that, it was an awful catch all space. 
🌿
I decided to stick to the greens, neutrals and for some added color yellow. I really like using yellow this time of year. I noticed I started decorating with yellow in my dining room and it trinkled into my living room. 
🌿
What’s your favorite color to decorate for in the summer?

🌸~🌼~🌸 WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIEN 🌸~🌼~🌸 WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR ENGAGEMENT TOUR! 
~M🌼Y your day be filled with happy moments and beautiful flowers! 

I decided to create a zinnia garden this year and I am so excited to see it bloom. A few flowers started to show. I didn’t want Sully 🐶 in the garden, so I put a fence around it.  It worked for about 3 weeks. I was on stories yesterday, showing other parts of the garden and I turned around and saw Sully in my garden. I must have screamed so loud. He was stuck in there and panicking because I was. I got him out and no damage to any of the flowers. That was scary!

Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went cherry picking. It was so fun! We got so many cherries. I’m guessing about 9 pounds. I have no clue how two people are going to eat 9 pounds of cherries? But we will try.
🍒
I am so happy we were actually able to pick cherries. We missed out the past couple of years. The season comes up so fast and only lasts a couple of weeks. Plus it gets so busy that the traffic is awful. That’s one thing about California is the traffic is so bad here that it takes the joy out of doing things. But not this year! I got my cherries!! 
🍒
If swipe the photos, you will see the bucket of cherries and a couple cherries on the tree.

What is your favorite cherry recipe?

☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIE ☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR TOUR! 
M🌸Y every flower lift your spirits!

I am sharing with you my Everblooming Hydrangea. This is a full sun hydrangea. I planted it last year and it did so crappy. I was shocked to see so many flowers on it. We have had a relatively cool Spring, so it’s been happy. Today it got hot out and I just went out to look at the hydrangea and it’s shriveling. So I need to capture this moment before it poops out this summer.

We are a fabulous group of friends sharing their love of flowers and elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

I am sharing with you the @krumpetshomedecor deal of the week. It’s a set of two mango wood trays with a beautiful rope handle.
🌷
The bigger tray I used to make a tulip arrangement. It’s such a great size. The last photo is also how I used the tray on my bed. The smaller tray is perfect for holding my olive oils in my kitchen. These trays will fit in about  any space. I just love them.
