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

      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 December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 Happy December 1st! Can you believe it’s only 25 days until Christmas? I’m not ready yet!! But I did get my Christmas tablescape ready! 
🎄
I was gifted this beautiful table cloth by @cottonprintclub. It’s 100% cotton, comes in several sizes and colors, doesn’t bleed or shrink when washed. I love the shade of green and it is so beautiful that you can use it all year. 
🎄
I went with a simple tablescape to show off my beautiful plates that I received from @backcountrymercantile. All I added to my table was some garland, candlesticks and of course twinkling lights. Swipe the photo to see my table in the evening.

Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and oh my gosh, I love it!! Pink is so fun! I thought I would share with you how I styled my kitchen sink area.
💗
The inspiration for this space came from the stunning pieces that I was gifted from my friend Britni @arcadian.collective. I love her shop! Such timeless, elegant pieces that will last a lifetime.
💗
I received from Arcadian Collective the solid marble Seraphine Butter Bell, Vintage European solid brass Salt & Pepper Mill, Carrara Cielo Marble Stone Serveware and the cutest pink little Christmas candle. Check out my Arcadian Collective highlight for more details on each product. They would make a great holiday gift!

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!!

Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!
