Strawberry Orange Smoothie

December 30, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 36 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I am sharing with you the last smoothie of the year!  It’s a sweet one, healthy, low-calorie and made with my favorite fruit, strawberries!

Strawberry Orange Smoothie
I just love strawberries and I haven’t really had anything made with strawberries in a long time. This smoothie has it all! A wonderful strawberry flavor, a pop of orange and it’s oh so creamy smooth!! It’s perfect for me to say goodbye to 2013!
Strawberry Orange Smoothie
When making this smoothie my blender took a crapper on me. Sigh… I have a Ninja blender which worked like a dream until I made this smoothie. I guess I need to invest in a new blender, I’m thinking the Vitamix. It seems like that blender makes everyone pretty happy. I am disappointed because this blender only lasted me a couple of years. Lucky I have a back up blender so I can make today’s smoothie. Otherwise I would have been pretty upset.
Strawberry Orange Smoothie
This smoothie is made with a blend of orange juice, coconut milk, greek yogurt and a pinch of stevia to sweetened it up. It’s all great ingredients and full of protein and fiber. This smoothie is very filling too!!!

Strawberry Orange Smoothie
I thought I would give you a little health update. I went to the doctors and got my lab results for finding out if I am lactose intolerant. I was tested for Celiac, lactose and fructose. I got a negative on everything, which is a good thing. What the doctor found is that I have a bacterial over-growth in my intestine. That is what caused the empty feeling in my stomach, weight gain and the bloating. The doctor put me on antibiotics for 10 days. He said this will re-boot my system. I all ready feel great and my stomach has flattened out! Yah! I lost 5 lbs in two days taking the antibiotics. It goes to show how much I was bloated! So I am happy to report that I can have dairy again! However, I am going to limit my intake of it. I am also going to limit my intake of carbs too. I want to start 2014 on a good health note, so I am going to up my protein, eat more vegetables and limit my fruit to a couple of servings a day. I think I was really over-doing the fruit. I am not sure what caused the infection, but now I need to keep an eye on  what I am eating. I think to much of anything is not good, including healthy food.  Yes, I said that, but it’s true. Will that mean, I’ll eat junk?  Of course not! My body is a machine and I need to keep it fueled with good things!

So that’s it for me! Have a great day and Happy Smoothie Monday!

Toodles,


Jennifer

    Great that you’ve hit the reset button and can start working on some new goals. Really appreciate all your yummy recipes and your balance of health and treats. If you can splurge, get the Vitamix. I bought one about six months ago and it has been the best kitchen investment I ever made!

      Always working on goals, but I’m going to try harder this year. I am thinking of a Vitamix, I just have to save up a little.

    Love this combination of flavors Jennifer, so sweet and fresh. So happy to hear your health news, it’s always so good when they can figure out what the problem is. I know it makes your life a lot easier not having to completely limit the dairy and gluten. Happy New Year!

    Smoothies are the best! I killed my old blender awhile back – I think it’s the frozen bananas in smoothies. I am thinking about a Vitamix, but truthfully my food processor has been doing an amazing job! Glad you are feeling better. I eat tons of fruit and hope that’s not a bad thing. Maybe I should up my vegetable intake!

      What a great idea to use a Food Processor. I should do that too! I want a Vitamix, but I don’t want to spend the money on it. Nah, eating lots of fruits and vegetables is a good thing, just be sure to was them! 🙂

    Glad you are feeling better! This smoothie sounds so perfect right now. I love strawberry anything! Side note, I’ve heard from a few people that the Vitamix was one of their favorite purchases. We don’t have one just yet, but plan to. Just wanted to stop by to thank you for sharing and linking up to What’d You Do This Weekend and I will be featuring this later tonight in this week’s linkup. Have a great night!

    Hello, I have tried this recipe several times in the last couple of weeks, and i used almond milk instead of coconut, (which I think might have altered the flavor) and plain greek yogurt. I have found that this tastes best (for my taste buds, which I like things really sweet) to use the 100 calorie yoplait (or which ever brand that is fat free) strawberry flavored greek yogurt. It has just the right amount of sweetness (there again, for me). I LOVE it! I hope this helps someone! And thanks for sharing your recipe!

    But isn’t that a lot of sugar? Or does it depend on what your dietician wants how much you intake.

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.
