Almond Mocha Smoothie

November 11, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 16 Comments

Good morning!

Happy Monday to you!  Lets start the week out on a healthy foot, which includes chocolate!  Yum, yes please!  I am loving today’s Monday Smoothie!   Just look and you’ll see why!

Almond Mocha Smoothie
This is my Almond Mocha Smoothie. I had some leftover almond milk from my Apples and Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal and I thought, hmmm, I have never had an almond smoothie. So I whipped together a simple, tasty, chocolaty little almond treat that will be sure to put you in a good Monday mood!!
Almond Mocha Smoothie
This smoothie can be put together in a matter of minutes. It’s made with unsweetened almond milk, a frozen banana, cocoa powder and a pinch of stevia to sweetened it up. It’s a great morning shake and an awesome post workout shake. It’s loaded with potassium and fiber. The potassium is great for your muscles and the fiber will fill you up!! You won’t be hungry after this smoothie!
Almond Mocha Smoothie
Just because I love sweet things and a smoothie just isn’t as pretty if you don’t include whip cream, so I topped my smoothie with some dairy free whip cream and some dark chocolate shavings. Yum! This is totally optional, but I just had to do it! I have to tell you, I am loving the dairy free whip cream. It keeps its shape and it’s tasty! So much nicer than the whip cream I used to use.

Almond Mocha Smoothie
I have to say this is the first time I actually drank almond milk and it’s pretty good, plus I love that it is low-calorie! Only 45 calories a cup. You can find almond milk, normally in the cereal isle of your grocery store, located with the boxed soy and coconut milk. So what are you waiting for? Kick those Monday blues and put a smile on your face with a chocolaty almond smoothie!

Have a super fab week!!

Toodles,


Jennifer

Comment: They all sound good but I would try Choconut first.

    I saw this on Pinterest, and it looks good, I’m just confused why it’s called Almond Mocha Smoothie. There’s no coffee in it? (mocha means coffee + chocolate) I’m off go go explore your blog and see what other recipes I can find. 🙂

🐾
Downlite Bedding gave my followers a 20% discount code: DYGEN20. Now to try to get my pillow back from Samuel.

I worked on my little corner by updating my bar cart, which is so dangerous because I added candy that I can’t stop eating. I also added  my new Kissing Booth sign from @krumpetshomedecor. 
💋
The Kissing Booth sign is reversible and the other side says kissing booth, kiss me I’m Irish with green writing and green lips. I’ll share the other side in stories. It’s so cute!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
