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,

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!

Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. I can’t believe that this weekend is Mothers Day. It just seems early this year. I am not sure what are plans are going to be this weekend?
🌷
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.
🌷
