Blueberry Banana Acai Smoothie

July 29, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 16 Comments

Howdy Everyone!

Welcome to Smoothie Monday!  I missed smoothie Monday last week and I think my Husband did too!  But today I made up for that!  I am sharing with you a new smoothie that healthy, nutritious and is sure to make the palate happy.  I was asked to try a new organic juice and you know how I like my drinks, so of course I said yes!  Let me tell you its fabulous!  It’s so fabulous that my Husband can’t keep his hands off it!  Do you have any idea how many times I heard, can I drink that?  I tell him no, I need to share with my readers first!!  He has been antsy about it, waiting for me to make my smoothie.  Sorry Husband I waited two weeks before I made my smoothie, well now he is a happy camper because I made today’s recipe just for him!

Blueberry Banana Acai Smoothie

 

This is my Blueberry Banana Acai Smoothie!  It’s rich with flavor, smooth going down and very healthy for you!  I made this yesterday morning and gave it to my Husband while he was working in the garage.  He was so happy!!  I think this maybe his favorite smoothie so far.  He really likes the juice.  He said the smoothie, is sweet, a little creamy and has a hint of banana.  So what is this magical juice that I used in the smoothie?  It’s Sambazon Original Acai Superfood Juice.  Sambazon contacted me to see if I wanted to try it, but before I accept any product I always read the label.  All good stats with Sambazon!!  It’s organic, natural and has natural sugar in it.  I happy that my Husband loves this juice because it makes me feel good to give him something healthy.  Beats fruit juice that is loaded with sugar that he always drinks.


Blueberry Banana Acai Smoothie

 

It took me a while to post this recipe because the closest location to me that carries SAMBAZON is Whole Foods and Whole Foods is about 40 miles or so from me.  It’s a special trip to go there.  However, last week, I went to a super big Safeway and what did I see a ton of Sambazon flavors!  I was so happy to see that.  I rarely go to this Safeway because it is out of the way for me, but it’s way closer than Whole Foods and now I have a good excuse to go.  The flavors I saw that I can’t wait to try are Chocolate Almond Coconut Milk, Mocha Java, umm yum!!  And they even had Acai Berry and Chocolate!  Oh man!  I happened to be going peach picking and the store that carries them is near where I’ll be.  You know where I’ll be heading after peach picking!  🙂

I really do like this drink and I love that it is vegan, gluten free, contains no GMO and is organic!  Not to mention the company is here in Sunny California.  You can check out the SAMBAZON website for some yummy looking recipes, locations and more information about their products.  When I was on their website earlier I noticed they have a 3 day cleanse that I think is at Costco.  I have never done a cleanse before but I am curious about it.  I have to look into that.  if I do it, I’ll let you know!

Have a happy and healthy week!  I have some wonderful summertime recipes planned for you this week!!  So stay tuned.

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  I almost forgot to tell you!  Today I start a 30 day, 10,000 a day step challenge from Mamavation.  I will be trying out the new Omron Tri-Axis USB Pedometer.  I have to track everyday and announce my progress each day on twitter.  I plan on also Instagraming my results too.  I am happy to be apart of this challenge because this is what started me on my weight loss journey!  Walking is an amazing exercise that works the whole body!  I lost 10lbs, the first month I started to walk.  It’s going to be tough, but I know I can do it!  I would love it if you would join me!  It would be fun!  You can tell me each day how many steps you took!  Share it on Instagram or Twitter and link it in my comment section, inspire all your friends, fellow readers to get out there and walk.  So grab a pedometer and join me on this 30 day challenge!!

    Costco (at least my local one) also carries the original Sambazon açai juice. You might check your Costco for the frozen pulp, because some stores carry it. We’ve been making açai bowls for breakfast using the frozen açai pulp – that’s a favorite breakfast in Brazil, where the berries are grown. I would use the frozen pulp in this smoothie (1 packet) and also add vanilla protein powder. I like the idea of putting açai in smoothies as well as the bowls. And a vegan protein powder would work as well as the whey powder I use.

      I think I am the only person in the country without a Costco membership. I think I am going to ask for one for my birthday! I need to go to Costco. I want to make acai bowls too! 🙂

    I love getting the Acai smoothie at Jamba Juice, but your version is healthier and less expensive! I am going to have to give a swirl and make this tasty version!

      Thanks Laura! This was the first time I ever had acai and I love it! As much as I like Jamba Juices smoothie, I stay away, so many calories, it’s crazy! 🙂

Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little o Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little outdoor space with our lounge chairs. Truthfully I wanted to get rid of the lounge chairs as they take up so much room and we never lay on the chaises. However, over the winter my husband made new cushions for the them and I didn’t have the heart to get rid of them. He made the cushions for our dog Samantha who passed away this winter. She loved laying on the lounge chairs. The boys don’t like to sit on them, unless you are on them too. 
☀️
I do like the color combination of this space. It’s relaxing and I just love the Gerbera flowers. I wish I could keep the pillows on them, but my little Sully 🐶loves to tear apart pillows. So the pillows are living in my living room. I’ll bring them back outside if we have guests. 
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

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!
