Diet Mixed Berry Smoothie

March 5, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 12 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I have been on such a smoothie kick lately.  I have had one just about everyday!  I think it is the nice weather we are finally having that it  has given me a little bit of spring fever.  Plus having smoothies have tie me over between lunch and dinner.  It keeps me from mindless snacking!

Mixed Berry Smoothie

A creamy,thick healthy smoothie made with berries, banana and Cranberry Juice.

I teamed up with Ocean Spray on today’s smoothie, and they asked me to make their Diet Mixed Berry Smoothie.  So I followed their recipe and whipped this wonderful, creamy, sweet smoothie together in a matter of minutes.  I was very excited to try the smoothie, since  you already know how much I love Ocean Spray’s Diet Cranberry juice, from my past recipe for my Cranberry Christmas Smoothie.

Christmas Cranberry Smoothie

I always keep a bottle of Ocean Spray Diet Cranberry Juice in my refrigerator.   It’s tangy with a hint of sweetness and only 5 calories for 1 cup!!  It really quenches my thirst when I want something rather than water.   Today’s smoothie is a wonderful blend of Ocean Spray Diet Cranberry Juice, berry greek yogurt, frozen banana and mixed frozen berries.  I love it and it was perfect for after my morning workout!!

I asked my Husband to take a taste of the smoothie and he loved it!  I had to make him one too!  Matter in fact I made a batch of these smoothies and froze them in a freezer bag.  I plan on taking them to work and having one as my mid morning snack.  This will give me something to look forward too!!  Do you ever freeze your smoothies?  It’s so easy!  Just make the smoothie, place in a freezer bag and freeze.  Take it out a couple of hours before you have it and place in the refrigerator   In a couple of hours it is just like you just made it!!

I’m looking forward to making more smoothies with my Diet Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice.  Do you know they have other flavors besides cranberry?  They also have 8 other flavors, plus two sparkling Diet Cranberry Juices.  I didn’t know they had sparkling diet, until I just now saw it on their website.  Now I’m going to look for those next time I am at the store.

But as I think about it, I’m thinking the Cran-Lemonade will be perfect for summer and perfect for me right now!  That one is going on my grocery shopping list too.  I love the flavor of lemonade!  Yum!!!   That will make for an awesome smoothie, plus I have a recipe idea in mind with that one.  But you’ll have to wait for that!

    Hi there! I love this smoothie idea with the cranberry juice! Lately, my daughter and I have been making smoothies with greek yogurt for a protein boost before our karate classes! You can read about my 10 year Black Belt at my (NEW!) blog! 🙂

    I love Ocean Spray’s new Diet line. I tried their cran-pomegranite and it’s delicious! It would be a great addition to a berry smoothie.

    This looks amazing….AND delicious! I love your simple tip of how to freeze extra for later. That is really handy! Saves so much on time. I can’t wait to try the grape smoothie…and switch up later with the rest! Thank you for sharing! (=

      I love freezing my smoothies and frappes. I figure if I’m making one, might as well make more for later, that way I won’t have to bring the blender out again. The grape smoothie sounds good!!

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe it’s 4th of Ju Happy Thursday! I can’t believe it’s 4th of July weekend already! I’m not sure what our plans are, but I’m sure cooking on the bbq will be happening. It should be a nice weekend. 
🇺🇸
I thought I would share with you the little corner in my dining room that I decorated for the 4th of July. If you do not have any patriotic decor, all you have to do is add a flag to it. 
🇺🇸
Do you have any plans for this holiday weekend?

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.
💕
Do you eat at the dining room table or do you prefer the kitchen counter?

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and boy does it feel so nice to have a clean room.
💕
One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Happy Wednesday! Hope your week is going well. I’m so happy it’s half way over. It’s been so busy and yesterday I didn’t feel good. I had Chipotle for lunch and it didn’t agree with my stomach. Ugh!

I updated my little corner by adding some pops of yellow. I just love adding yellow and I love adding lemons. Speaking of lemons, how cute is my little “Hello Sunshine” pillow is from @krumpetshomedecor.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.
