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 Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view o Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view of my kitchen. What’s so rare about it! It’s clean. 🤣 
.
So this weekend our refrigerator broke. The freezer no longer works and the fridge is not getting cool enough. Ugh!! We bought our Whirlpool refrigerator about 4 years ago and spent near $3000 for it. It sure didn’t last long. 
.
After reading reviews on a million refrigerators, they all seem like crap. I need your help! Do you have a refrigerator that you recommend? 
.
I saw a Frigidaire one that we are debating on, but not sure? The reviews are good, but says, they were collected from a promotion. So I’m not sure how much I trust that? Anyway, any recommendations that you have would be great! 
.
Have a great day!

I have been decorating the house for Easter and Spring. I love how this little space turned out. I am loving the bright pastels. I added my new bunny/chick pillow that I got from @12timbers. It matches so perfectly and it’s so cute. I also couldn’t resist the chick pillow from Target.

Have the best day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I mus Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I must say I was disappointed in the Super Bowl. I really wanted the 49ers to win. Anyway, this weekend I refreshed my guest bathroom.
🐰
I have to say my new favorite item is the towel holder. It’s so cute and practical. I don’t have a hand towel rack and I hated leaving my towels on my counter. I saw the towel holder from Target and had to get it. It’s the Hearth and Hand brand.
🐰
I added some bunnies for Spring and a touch of pink for some color. The hand towels are from Homegoods. They have so many bunnies and Easter decor. I had to control myself because I was with my husband. I may go back. 
🐰
Have a great day!!

Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still h Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still have Christmas in my kitchen.😳 I don’t know where to put it, so I haven’t taken it down. It’s not a lot, but just enough to where I can’t fit it. Ugh!  Please tell me I’m not the only one. 
💕
I did do one little spot for Valentines, which I think is so cute. I love decorating with Valentines candy. I can’t resist the pinks and the conversation hearts. I do not plan on going all out decorating this season, as time is going so fast, but I may add some hearts here and there. 
💕
Do you decorate for Valentine’s Day?

Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is the time to get your chores done, so when the warmer weather arrives you can enjoy it. My goal is to refresh my bedroom. I am slowly getting rid of stuff that I no longer need and slowly adding new decor. So hopefully in a few weeks it will be done. #twopageshome
♥️
The first thing I added are these stunning customized curtains that I was gifted from @twopagescurtains. Guys, I’m in love! The curtains are just so pretty! I am loving the way it shades the sun, but still lets the light in. Exactly the look I was going for.
♥️
The curtains I chose are the “Liz Linen Drape Soft”. They are a linen curtain that is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, long lasting, dust preventative, and breathable. They are also wrinkle free. I didn’t have to steam them. They came right out of the package ready to hang. They also come in 38 colors and 7 shadings to choose from. There is an option for everyone.
♥️
I’ll be honest I was intimidated on ordering custom curtains. I was so afraid I would order them wrong, but I didn’t. Two Pages has a measurement finder that asks you a few easy questions and boom you have your custom curtain size. It was so simple.
♥️
If you are looking for some new curtains or shades for your home, I highly recommend Two Page Curtains. I absolutely love them. They were kind enough to give my followers an 8% discount code: PBANDP. Link in bio
♥️
Are you planning on refreshing any spaces?

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday sea Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I am slowly working on taking my Christmas decor down. I still have my tree up, but I love the twinkling lights, and the real reason is I need my husband to get the box out of the garage. lol 
💙
I am going with blues in the living room. I just find blue calming and peaceful. The first area I styled is the coffee table. Sorry about the views. I have a small, thin living room.
💙
I decided to go light on the decor and add some fresh faux greenery. I hate leaving the remote controls out, so I decided to store them in a decorative box. Everything here, but the white box was bought at Target. 
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. It was low key for us, as it was just my husband and I. We had dinner at my daughters house on Christmas Eve. That was nice. 
🎄
I am sharing my last view of my living room before I take down my Christmas decor. I will leave some of the winter type greens, but I think I’m going to add some blues. I have always liked blue after the holidays. It just gives the room a light and clean look.
🎄
I want to say sorry for lack of posting. It’s just so time consuming engaging. I hate spending countless hours on my phone. It has made me physically lazy and it hurts my eyes. I have put on so much weight because all I do is sit. I really need to change this habit. Anyway! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
