Pina Banana Soft Serve / Weekly Recap 07/13/2013

July 13, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 11 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I have to make a quick post.  On Friday I have a BBQ at work so I won’t be home late, and  tonight, which is Thursday, I have to make my dishes.  I’m making my Jalapeno Cilantro Hummus,which is a huge hit with everyone, even those who don’t like hummus love this dip.  So I am making that and my Cucumber and Tomato Summer Salad.  I figured I would bring healthy dishes so I can munch on this and not high calorie dips and snacks.  Hope my plan works out?!  Crossing fingers!!  Today’s recipe is one I came by, by accident.  When I was making my Lave Flow Smoothie, I made it too thick and I realized that it tasted awesome and would make an excellent soft serve ice cream.

Pina Banana Soft Serve

This ice cream is my Pina Banana Soft Serve Ice Cream.  It’s creamy, sweet and tastes of the tropics.  It’s made with simple ingredients, like banana, pineapple, coconut milk and stevia.  It’s so refreshing and so perfect for the summer.  Not to mention it is healthy, guilt-free and even vegan.  I love when you cook or in my case make smoothies and then you discover another recipe while making another dish.

Pina Banana Soft Serve


For a little added umph, I topped my soft serve with some unsweetened shredded coconut and of course a cherry.  It was a filling and wonderful little dessert.  You could so eat this all yourself, like I did, but if you’re looking for just a little bit you can certainly split it with someone.  The recipe makes 2 cups of pure yumminess!!

Pina Banana Soft Serve

I am loving this dessert!  I am on such an ice cream kick and this is fabulous to satisfy your craving without all the unnecessary ingredients!   Now for this weeks weekly recap.

Sunday:  Peach Tart – I love this tart and so did my Husband!  He ate 3/4’s of it and I ate the other 1/4.  It’s refreshing and so perfect to use those wonderful fresh peaches that are now in season.  I don’t buy peaches that much, but when I do, I remember how much I truly love them!  I need to stock up more.  I’m hoping today to go to the Farmers Market and get some more.

Peach Tart

Monday:  Lava Flow Smoothie – This is another tropical treat!  I love this smoothie, it’s one of my favorites.  I wish so bad I could have a real one from Hawaii.  One day, I’ll get there and when I do, I’ll be having one of these drinks, hopefully while sitting on the beach!  🙂

Lava Flow Smoothie

Tuesday:  Avocado Chocolate Balls – I have been nibbling on these little balls all week!  They satisfy your chocolate craving and you get a little hint of avocado in it too!  It’s amazing of all the fun things you can make with avocado.  These balls are one of my number one pinned recipes this week!

Avocado Chocolate Balls

Wednesday:  Peanut Butter and Jelly Tart – This is my recipe that is on the Smart Balance Battle of the Bloggers.  I’m not doing to great in the contest, it really comes down to popularity, I think?   That’s one thing I don’t like about voting contests.  If you have a bazillion readers, then your going to get more votes.  Oh well, honestly I am happy to be chosen to be in the contest and I want to thank you for your votes!  It’s so much appreciated to have your support.  So a big thank you to you!  If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t even be in it!

Peanut Butter and Jelly Tart

Thursday:  Apricot Scones – I like this little scones and the combination of orange and apricot go simply wonderful together.  I like that they are mini, but you can always make them bigger!  🙂

Apricot Scones with Orange Glaze

Friday:  Cherry Lime Soda – This is a drink my Husband and I have been drinking all week.  It’s light, refreshing and guilt-free.  We both really love it and I can’t wait to try this type of recipe with other good for you fruit juice.  My Husband says it almost tastes like cherry crush!  I think it just tastes good and it’s so much better than soda!

Cherry Lime Soda

Well my Friends, I need to get going.  I talked more than I had planned!  🙂

Have a great weekend!  Get out there and enjoy it!  I can’t get over we are almost half way through July already.  Summer is going way to quick, if you ask me!  Ugh!

Toodles,

Jennifer

This weeks craving is Bircher Muesli!  I love this and I haven’t had it since I posted it.  I need to make it again and have it for brekafast this coming week!

    What a fun idea for a healthy ‘ice cream’! I’ve done the pureed banana before with chocolate and peanut butter and loved it, but this is definitely a version I need to try!

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I have an addiction to Hi, my name is Jennifer and I have an addiction to bunnies and the carrots they eat. Please send help.
🥕
This weekend I worked on my bar cart and let me tell you that I am loving the orange color and all the carrots and bunnies. So much fun!! 
🥕
In the bowl on the tiered tray you see wooden carrots, those are from @krumpetshomedecor. They are so cute!! My dogs seem to be obsessed with them when I hung them on my cart, so I had to hide them. I’ll share them in stories today.
🥕
The carrot sign on the wall, little carrot sign on the tiered tray are from Krumpets Home Decor. Plus the wooden carrot banner is the Krumpets deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off: PBANDP. Link in bio.

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
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.
🫧
I used @cloth.bristle to clean my kitchen counters and sink. I love cleaning my sink with it. It makes it so sparkly and smells good too! Love that it’s all natural. 
🫧
The beautiful spring tea towel is from my friend Alicia from @theblessedpeach. 
🫧
The tray and canister is Targets Hearth and Hand. The marble paper towel holder is Target Threshold. The soap is Trader Joe’s!
🫧
Hope I inspire you to do a little spring cleaning!! Have a great Monday!

Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is just awful out there. Heavy rain, high winds and hail. This is not a winter that we are used to in California. 
🥕
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!!

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. It went Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. It went way too quick. I can’t believe it’s Monday again. But on the plus side, I have a clean home to start the week, which is a great feeling.
🐰
I’m sharing with you my media table all decked out for Easter. I just love decorating for spring and Easter. Something about pulling out the bunnies that makes me smile. 
🐰
I am loving my Wanted Bunny sign that I got from @12timbers. I love that it’s a neutral color that will go with any style and color. The sign comes in three sizes, and you can choose the coloring of the background and design color.
🐰
The Jute Tree with the Eggs and the Wooden Bunnies are also from 12 Timbers. The Jute Tree is so much fun to add to your decor. I love the colors of the felt eggs. Plus I love the shape and the way the eggs hang off the branches. The Wooden Bunnies are just the cutest. You know me and bunnies. You can choose your bunnies in pink, white or stain. 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!

Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll be honest, I great intentions on decorating my house this weekend, but with the rain and cold, I got pretty lazy. I had packages that were supposed to arrive last week, but with the winter storms here on the west coast, my packages seem to be stuck in Nevada. This weather is so crazy!
🌸
Here is my little corner of my living room with a little pop of spring. Sorry about the lighting. With this weather, photographing is not easy.
🌸
I added a pillow that I got from Target and a white blanket I already had on hand. I of course had to add some bunnies. The wooden bunny with the flowers is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. 
🌸
Have a wonderful Monday!!

Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather. We are having extreme winds again and boy is it cold out. It’s only in the 30’s right now and tomorrows high is in the 40’s. Normally by now I am planting seeds in the ground and prepping for Spring gardening. I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Where’s the California Spring weather?
🐰
Since we don’t have Spring outside, I thought I would bring Spring in the house. I bought my first fresh bouquet of tulips. Aren’t they pretty? This makes me so happy. Plus I couldn’t resist bringing the bunnies out. They seemed to have multiplied since last Spring. lol
🐰
This Spring vignette was inspired by the beautiful welcome sign from @krumpetshomedecor. I love the bead handle and the cute little bunny on it. The sign is reversible, swipe to see other side. So you can use it all year. It would be beautiful in an entry, guest bedroom and on your front porch.
🐰
The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an extra 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in Bio.

What’s the weather like where you live?

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterd Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. Yesterday we watched on Netflix Your Place or Mine with Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. If you like the classic Rom-Com movies you’ll enjoy it.
💗
I added a little of Spring decor to my bench in my living room. I will probably change this spot up once I pull my spring decor out, but for now I like it.
💗
It’s crazy how big this space looks in video, when it’s quite small. I call this my runway zone because the dogs run through this space like maniacs. So I have to keep it light with no breakables. 
💗
The two large pillows are from Target and the little bunny pillow is from the Target Dollar Spot. The throw is from Pier1 when they had a storefront. The sign on the wall is from Krumpets Home Decor.

Have you started decorating for Spring?

I have gotten so many questions lately about the runner in my kitchen that I thought I would share with you a close up and some information about it. This is not a collaboration. 
🐾
The vinyl runners are from @vmathome. They are so easy to clean, pet friendly, anti-slip, and durable. I love these vinyl runners in the kitchen and hallway. If the dogs get dirt or water on them, I just clean it up with a paper towel. They have been a life saver having them with two young dogs.
🐾
The vinyl mat on the first picture is the Dandelion Vinyl Mat. If you swipe the photo you will see the vinyl mat that used last year in my kitchen which is the Charlotte Vinyl Mat. If you sign up for emails, you will get discount codes.
🐾
These two pictures are a year apart. Look how much my baby Sully has grown. 🥹
🐾
Have the best day!
