Caramel Apple Protein Smoothie

September 30, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 20 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to another Smoothie Monday!  Today’s smoothie was inspired by the beautiful Fall weather we have been having.  It’s been sunny, warm and with a slight breeze.  It’s just perfect!!   If it could stay like this all year round I’d be a happy camper.  I have been cooking up apple recipes this past Sunday and with the smell of cinnamon and apples in the air I couldn’t resist on making a smoothie made with a fresh, juicy, sweet apple.

Caramel Apple Protein Smoothie
This apple smoothie is simply perfect for starting off your morning or even having as a mid day snack. It’s made with fresh chopped apple, vanilla protein powder (Designer Whey brand), apple spice, cinnamon, coconut milk and caramel extract that I got from J.R. Watkins. Oh baby it’s like drinking a dessert. It’s creamy, smooth and has a slight taste of caramel with a nice hint of apple. it almost reminds me of caramelized apples with vanilla ice cream.
Caramel Apple Protein Smoothie
One thing to warn about this recipe is if you don’t like texture in your smoothie, I recommend peeling your apple first. I put the skin and all into the smoothie, but my Husband didn’t care for the skin. It doesn’t bother me. Also, if you don’t happen to have an apple on hand, I am betting unsweetened applesauce will work in a pinch. if you’re looking to really fill you up and go all out in the recipe, throw in some oatmeal and boy will this smoothie keep you full for hours.

If your feeling a tad naughty you can always add a dollop of whip cream to the top with a sprinkle of cinnamon. I am betting that would be good. But I honestly didn’t think of that til right now. Darn it and the smoothie is gone! Hmmm, that will have to be for next time!

      Keep your eyes open for caramel extract, I bought mine from JR Watkins. But I am sure specialty stores carry it.

      Hi Lori! I love caramel extract! It’s great to add a pinch to coffee or in your yogurt for a healthy treat. I used the brand JR Watkins, here’s the link. https://www.jrwatkins.com/products/49d47b04-a092-431c-889a-184cec15eef4/

Happy Wednesday! Pucker Up! Love is in the air! I Happy Wednesday! Pucker Up! Love is in the air! I am sharing with you part of my dining room that is all decked out for Valentines Day.

I worked on my little corner by updating my bar cart, which is so dangerous because I added candy that I can’t stop eating. I also added  my new Kissing Booth sign from @krumpetshomedecor. 
💋
The Kissing Booth sign is reversible and the other side says kissing booth, kiss me I’m Irish with green writing and green lips. I’ll share the other side in stories. It’s so cute!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
