PBJ & B Shakes (Banana-Free)

Funky PB&J protein shake with berries, nut butter, and beets! Perfect for busy mornings, they’re packed with protein and healthy fats!

Hi everyone!

I’m writing this blog post outside today (in February, I might add!) because it’s a gorgeous 75 degrees and sunny.

It really feels like little Punxsutawney Phil was wrong about this one, you guys.

All of the neighbors are outside walking their dogs in bright tank tops that they probably yanked out of storage just for today.

I don’t blame them. I’d dust off the blender if I hadn’t left it out all winter long…

Whether you’re basking in sunshine or trudging through a cold spell, you’re going to love my newest banana-free shake obsession.

These PBJ & B Shakes require only 5 minutes and 6 ingredients to start your day with a healthy dose of peanut butter and jelly, protein, and veg.

Cinnamon Almond Matcha Latte

Energize with this vegan matcha latte with almond milk and cinnamon. Super creamy and sugar free. All you need is 4 ingredients and 5 minutes!

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Today I’m sharing something a little different with you on the blog– it’s a beverage!

I’ve been feeling very “beverage-y” lately, because I’m fighting my second cold of 2018 and need all the warm healing liquids.

If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve probably heard me talk about switching from coffee to matcha in the new year.

It was a pretty seamless transition for me, but in those early stages my matcha latte making skills left a lot to be desired.

I’ve experimented with all the combos since then and I’m excited to share with you my favorite!

This Cinnamon Almond Matcha Latte requires only 4 ingredients, 5 minutes, and a short sleepy walk from your bedroom to your kitchen.

Trust me, it’s worth the wake up.

Autumn Winter Squash Mango Smoothie Bowl (Banana-Free)

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Fall-inspired banana-free smoothie bowl packed with roasted winter squash and sweet mango. Perfect for busy weekday meals and post-workout fuel.

Happy November!

As I’m writing this, it’s 74 degrees outside and we have the windows open.

Needless to say, it’s unseasonably warm.

You know what that means…it’s the perfect day to share a new smoothie bowl recipe!

To be honest, after completing my “galaxy bowl” series over the summer, I felt a bit smoothie-bowl uninspired.

Don’t get me wrong, I still ate them, I just felt like all of my new combos were just different variations of the same thing.

That was before I created this Autumn Winter Squash Mango Smoothie Bowl combination that sent those galaxy bowls back to space.

By Flora & Vino 3 Comments

Easy plant-based protein shakes combining sweet orange, creamy almond, and cozy spices with a warm inviting flavor to fuel your morning!

Remember in my last post when I warned you that a lot of orange things were headed your way…

Well, they’re here, and this recipe is quite literally, orange!

Although it’s almost “officially” fall, it’s been up to almost 80 every day here in Virginia, so I’m still craving shakes and smoothies to start my days.

The mixture of orange, almond butter, and subtle spice creates a wonderfully warm flavor oven though this recipe is of course, cold.

These Spiced Orange Almond Protein Shakes are the perfect easy breakfast or snack that taste like a creamsiscle spiced up for fall.

Fruit-Free “Fake Out” Shakes

By Flora & Vino 2 Comments

Basically a salad in milkshake form. Delicious low-sugar fruit-free shakes that taste like dessert but are packed with vegetables and protein!

Hi, friends!

You’ve been loving my Banana Free Smoothie Bowls and Galaxy Bowls (Blue Galaxy Bowl & Green Galaxy Bowl) so today I’m sharing this entirely fruit-free shake recipe.

While I do love fruit in my shakes, I can safely say that I don’t miss them in this one.

These creamy fruit-free shakes are all about low-sugar options when you’re not feeling you’re tutti fruitiest.

Sometimes I want more of a savory breakfast, especially if I hit the dark chocolate hard the night before, ya know?

Low-Sugar Strawberry Avocado Layer Shakes

By Flora & Vino 5 Comments

Keep your shakes interesting with strawberry and avocado layers! Enjoy this refreshing combo as a healthy breakfast, snack, or dessert.

I remember the first time I added avocado to my shake.

I tapped my spoon on the edge of the blender, releasing a big green hunk of avocado into the pool of protein powder, fruit, and almond milk.

I didn’t have a good feeling about it.

Then I pressed blend anyway.

Thank goodness I did, because I’ve been adding avocado to my smoothies ever since.

I love starting my day off with healthy fats to stay satiated through the morning and avocado is up there with nut butter for me in my smoothie- additions!

Not only do they provide amazing health benefits, they also make your shakes and smoothies super creamy and decadent.

Like these Low-Sugar Strawberry Avocado Layer Shakes.

Swoon.

Refreshing 4-ingredient cherry berry spritzers naturally sweetened with dates and ready to sip in 10 minutes. The perfect sweet drink for summer!

I’m in total berry mode right now, so don’t mind me while I throw berries into quite literally everything.

This time of year the nights seem longer and calmer, and I love to enjoy them outdoors, with some good food and drink, of course.

These Cherry Berry Spritzers are the perfect excuse to use up all of those fresh or frozen berries left in your fridge to make a cool beverage without any added sugars.
