Almond Joy Breakfast Smoothie Bowl

January 4, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 22 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Happy Saturday to you!  Today I have a very simple, tasty breakfast that will fill you for hours and will satisfy that sweet tooth you may have leftover from the holiday season.  Lets get crackin with today’s recipe.  Almond Joys Breakfast Smoothie Bowl.  Yummers!
Almond Joy Breakfast Smoothie Bowl
Today’s recipe is based on one of my all time favorite candy bars, the Almond Joy. I am just a freak when it comes to chocolate and coconut, however, I try to stay away because I can totally eat a ton of it. So instead of a candy bar I made a healthy, good for you breakfast that tastes just like an Almond Joy.
Almond Joy Breakfast Smoothie Bowl
The smoothie bowl is made with cocoa powder, chia seeds, greek yogurt, coconut milk and what gives it the almond joy flavor is the coconut and almond extract. This smoothie is super thick and it really needs to be eaten with a spoon. However if you’re in a rush and you want to drink your smoothie, just add a little more coconut milk to it.
Almond Joy Breakfast Smoothie Bowl
The smoothie is super simple to make too! The night before, add all of your ingredients in a bowl or even a blender, and place in the refrigerator. In the morning, just process it in the blender until creamy smooth. If you are in a rush or want this right now, just make it and let it sit in the fridge for at least an hour, while you get dressed. You want your oats to get all creamy smooth. The Chia seeds not only give it a protein boost but it also thickens up the smoothie even more.

Almond Joy Breakfast Smoothie Bowl
I think this is a great way to start off a weekend! I am trying to stay away from sweets, but when the craving hits, a smoothie like this is just perfect! It’s loaded with fiber and protein, low calorie and filled with yummy goodness.

I have a quick Sampson (dog) story for you. When I take pictures for my blog, I prep all of my food, get it ready and realize I need a prop. My props are located in the other room. I literally have to run, almost falling to get my props, because my boy Sampson will steal my food. He waits, watches and when my back is turned for two seconds the tongue comes out and you here a smack and he’s got my food. His tongue is like a whip! When my Husband is home, I tell him watch Sampson, so he calls him over and Sampson sits on the floor at the end of the couch. Well the other day I told him, you be good, I’m watching you and you know what he did? He walked over to the spot where he sits and just sat there and watched me. He actually for the first time didn’t try to steal my food. Yah, I am hoping that he will stick to this. I have seen food obsessed dogs before, but nothing like my boy. He loves when I cook and he just sits there and waits. My girl, Samantha, she could care less, unless I’m baking something with pumpkin. lol

Well that’s it for me! Have a super, great Wednesday!

Toodles,


Jennifer

    Sampson sounds just like my parents dog. I had an unfortunate pie eating incident with him over the holidays when I was trying to take some photos. They are just so quick!

    This looks super yummy, think I’m going to have to give it a go!

    I just found this recipe on Pinterest and I would love to try it. I eat wheat and soy-free, but am now attempting to exclude dairy as well. Is there an appropriate substitute for the greek yogurt? Thanks!

    Reply
    • Jennifer @ Peanut Butter and Peppers says

      May 15, 2014 at 5:44 PM

      You can use dairy yogurt, like coconut yogurt or even soy yogurt. I hope that helps.

    I’m guessing by plain yogurt you meant plain Vanilla yogurt? I was so excited to try this and made it last night. I followed the recipe exactly and it tasted like sour cream. So awful! Can you clarify what kind of yogurt you used?

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.
💕
Do you eat at the dining room table or do you prefer the kitchen counter?

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and boy does it feel so nice to have a clean room.
💕
One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

🌸
I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?
