Post Workout Smoothie

March 18, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 14 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Let me tell you I am on another kick, this time it’s smoothies!  I love making smoothies!  You can make so many different kind of variations just by using what you already have on hand.  You can have a smoothie for breakfast, lunch or even dessert!  Make it sweet, make it tart, make it extremely healthy or make it not so healthy.  I just love it!!  I hope you like smoothies, because I just froze some banana’s, bought a bunch of fruit, and bought a bunch of frozen fruit, so be prepared for lots of recipes.  I have some fun ideas in store!!  Today’s smoothie is my Post Work out Smoothie!

Post Workout Smoothie

When I got back from Zumba class I was so thirsty and I was a little hungry considering I only had a small container of yogurt for breakfast.  I didn’t want to fill up to much before going.  I have to say I enjoyed Zumba.  It was my first class I ever took and it was fun!!   It didn’t matter if you knew the moves or not, everyone was doing what they could, as long as you keep moving!!  It was quite a sweaty workout.  I think I’m going to do the class every Saturday!   Besides the class, the second best thing was coming home to a nice healthy smoothie!!!

This smoothie has pretty much every piece of fruit I had in the house.  So you maybe like my gosh, could she add anymore to this smoothie?  But you know all of it combined together made a naturally sweet, healthy drink!!


Before making the smoothie, I had a few key things I was looking for, protein to help repair and build muscle, vitamin C to help strengthen my immune system since I still have a cold and potassium to help with cramps, like a Charlie Horse.  I think I found everything I was looking for in this drink.  I’m going to share the whole nutrient package with you in the recipe section.

The smoothie is made with unsweetened coconut milk from the carton, One 6 oz container of Chobani Blood Orange Greek Yogurt, 2 freshly squeezed oranges, frozen honeydew melon, frozen strawberries, fresh blueberries and a half a scope of vanilla protein powder.  This was a nice thick, cold drink to satisfy my cravings!   You may see in the future that I may add more protein powder to drinks.  I tried it before, but got really sick from my last protein smoothie, that’s why I only went with a half a scoop.  It worked out for me, I felt fine and energized!  This is a feel good smoothie!

Post Workout Smoothie

I didn’t have intentions of taking pictures of the drink, but Little Jenny said I should share it with you because it’s really good!  I had a pinch left, so I thought ok.  Unfortunately do to bad timing, most of my photos didn’t turn out.  I hate that!  So I did play around with the edits a bit and pulled out the best pictures that I had.  I found taking pictures from the top was better then directly on, so forgive the photos.  I’ll probably re-make this one to share it again with you.  I know I will want another one of these.

Post Workout Smoothie

I called this smoothie my Post Workout Smoothie, but it needs a better name.  Can you suggest one?   It is thick, creamy and you really taste the sweetness of the oranges and strawberries.  Any suggestions would be grateful.   I sometimes have a hard time coming up with recipe names.

Well my Friends, I am off to dinner!

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Perfect for after a great workout class like that! Although, I wish we had Zumba in our county…I have to travel 35 min (freeway speed!) to go to one. This smoothie looks and sounds just amazing! Thank you for sharing! (=

    Hi There,

    I’m featuring this lovely recipe this week on AFW!!! It’s totally making my mouth water. Looks so creamy and delicious. I make a smoothie with hemp powder, but never tried vanilla powder. I love vanilla though and it sounds delish

    Be Well,

I want to give my apologies to the folks in the Philadelphia area. I seemed to have brought the California rain with me when I was there Thursday-Saturday. 😂 Hopefully you got some sun after I left.

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

Today I am sharing with you a spring vignette that I created. I just love tulips this time of year. Though, they seem to be out all year at Trader Joe’s, which is kind of strange. I can’t wait until they get peonies and lilacs. My two favorites.

The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

So much fun to add anywhere in your home.

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Have a beautiful day!
