Debloating Smoothie

December 2, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 26 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Did you stuff yourself this past weekend?  Did you eat lots of leftovers?  Did you consume too many glasses of wine?  A few too many slivers of pumpkin pie?  How about a pinch of this a pinch of that and next thing you know you completely stuffed yourself  and you feel like the Thanksgiving turkey.  Well don’t worry we all do that and trust me I know, actually I know to well!   🙂  So today I created a smoothie for you that will help cure the Monday Belly Blues.
Debloating Smoothie
This smoothie has everything to help you get a flat belly. Now don’t just drink this and think you’re bloating will go away, their are other things you need to do too, here are a few things that you shouldn’t do if your bloated!

  • Don’t Chew Gum
  • Don’t Drink from a Straw
  • Don’t add salt to food
  • Don’t Drink or consume too much Dairy, such as Cheese, Milk & Ice Cream (1 cup of milk is enough)
  • Limit the use of Sugar Substitutes and Sugar Alcohol
  • Don’t Drink Bubbly Drinks including soda or carbonated water
  • Don’t eat to many carbs in the evening
  • Don’t eat Beans (we all know what beans do)
  • Don’t eat Cabbage, Broccoli, Onions, Brussels Sprouts, Mushrooms, and Artichokes

Debloating Smoothie
So what does my magically smoothie contain to make it debloat you? Just a few simple ingredients! Banana, Strawberries, Pineapple, Spinach and Coconut Milk. That’s it!!! It’s naturally sweet, thick and you DO NOT taste the spinach. I gave it to my Husband and the smoothie scared him. I said just try it and he was pleasantly surprised on how good it is.  Here is what all of the ingredients do for you.

  • Banana – It provides potassium and regulates and can help regulate your body’s sodium levels.
  • Strawberries  – Provides fiber and can help promote digestion and fight bloating. Strawberries are also high in vitamin C.
  • Pineapple – It boasts a high-water concentration that will help to flush excess fluids from your system. They also contain enzymes that help you better digest protein.
  • Spinach – Provides fiber intake can help prevent and combat bloating, plus it helps you get  clearer skin, improved immune system and more.  It’s not a Super Food without good reason.
  • Coconut Milk – it’s a natural diuretic, provides potassium and electrolytes.

Here are a few things you can do if you do feel bloated or um, a little gassy

    • Move around, yes we don’t like to move when were bloated, but the movement moves the gas right out of you.
    • Drink lots of water!  Water will get rid of the sodium, fill you up and it’s just good for you!
    • Eat oatmeal or quinoa!  These are two carbs that will provide fiber, releases slow sugar to help lower your glycemic index.
    • Eat high potassium foods like bananas, nuts, tomatoes, spinach and asparagus.
    • Drink peppermint or chamomile tea, they both sooth a stomach.
    • Drink water with a lemon, this will naturally detoxify your kidneys.  I drink this every morning before my coffee.

Debloating Smoothie
Well I hope today’s smoothie helps you feel good! Whether you have bloat or looking for a good smoothie to help kick-start your Monday, this is one that will do it for you!  Now this week, if you make everything I am going to share with you, you will definitely need this smoothie!  I have lots of goodies that I made over Thanksgiving break and I can’t wait to share them with you!


Have a wonderful day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  This weekend I got and e-mail from a student named Brian who is in his first year of Graphic Design and he is currently involved in designing a magazine cover for his final in his Photoshop class.  Brian asked me if  it would be ok if he used my picture of my Roasted Squash and Mexican Black Bean Salad for his final.  I was so flattered that he asked me.  This is one of those blogging moments, when you realize you love what you do!  I told him of course you can use the photo as long as you send me a picture of the cover.  I thought Brian did a beautiful job and I wanted to share it with you.  Don’t you think he did a great job?

    Haha, I gave my husband a green smoothie a few weeks ago, and was met with the same scared reaction. But he agreed – you can’t taste the spinach! It’s magic!

    Do you have to use coconut milk? Can you use almond milk instead? I love green smoothies and you absolutely can not taste the spinich. Even if you could, spinich is good!!!

      Hi Patti! Of course you can use almond milk! Almond Milk is very good for and as a bonus it’s low in calorie! I love spinach too and it’s wonderful that you don’t taste it! My Husband had no clue and he thought the green color was from pistachios, lol! Enjoy the smoothie, it’s one of my favorites!! 🙂

      Coconut milk from a can has more calories, plus it is greasy. You have to use the coconut milk from the carton. Trust me on this one. 🙂

      Hi Janna, Using coconut milk from a can is higher calories and it will make the smoothie very greasy and undrinkable. Use coconut milk from a carton. It’s 50 calories a cup. It’s located in with the almond milk and soy milk in the grocery store, normally the cereal isle. I hope this helps.

    Really started to get back into health and fitness about two months ago. I struggle to get as many greens in my diet as I need as I’m not a massive fan of vegetable in general. This smoothie was amazing, it doesn’t taste green at all! Thanks so much Jennifer will definitely be trying more recipes out!

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!

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!
