Creamy Peanut Butter Milkshake

The White Pig rocked the milkshakes like no one else.  Believe you me, best milkshake ever.

The White Pig?  Who ever heard of such a name?  People who grew up in Lubbock and were lucky enough to have been around the East side of town, that’s who.  I remember the first time my dad took us there – y’all, this was a place that would have had the reigning spot on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.  Mostly in the Drive-In-turned-Dive part, but you know what?  When the food is great you just don’t care.

 

We got burgers, fries, cups of water (hydration is key, people) and at the end of the meal my dad got us all peanut butter milkshake.  I have to admit, I was a little more than freaked out.  Peanut butter & Jelly?  Yes please.  Celery and peanut butter (a combo I despise now)?  No problemo.  Apples dipped in peanut butter?  YES!  But a peanut butter milkshake was almost too much to handle.

 

And then I tried it.

 

The heavens opened, angels sang, and the world stood still for that moment.  I was hooked.  No other milkshake has compared since.  Until now.

CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER MILKSHAKE (serves 1-3 people – you get to decide that number ;))

  • 1 pint vanilla ice cream (I highly recommend Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla, but just use your favorite)
  • 3/4 cup milk, plus more as needed
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • chocolate syrup for the inside of the glass, optional

In a blender combine the ice cream, milk, and peanut butter.  If the consistency is too thick for your liking, add a touch more milk.  Drizzle the syrup inside of the glass you’re using and then pour in the shake.  Drink with a straw or devour straight out the glass!

Granted the experience of the White Pig with it’s crumbling A-frame roof, picnic tables, and loud traffic from the university – that experience will not likely be in your kitchen.  But that doesn’t mean the world won’t stop!

    This sounds delicious! Can’t wait to try it. I think it would be great with yogurt for a healthy smoothie!

    I was talking about the white pig the other day but couldn’t remember what the name of the place was lol….so it ended up being called the “peanut butter milkshake place my dad took my family to” 🙂

    Fun! My son just made this today for his friend but also added Reese’s PB cups! Yum. We have glass mugs like that too and I keep them on the door of my freezer for when I want a really cold mug of root beer. My Auntie from Borger Texas taught me that one!

    Heaven in a mug. Yup. I would die a 1,000 deaths for that milkshake. Kidding. (Or not).

    I’ve had an all-out addiction to peanut butter frozen yogurt this summer. Clearly, this milkshake needs to be in my life. Love the chocolate drizzle trick!

    I’m particular about my milkshakes…but this looks off the hook. The syrup swirl is absolutely mandatory.

    I’ve never had a pb milkshake before. I did have a pb and jelly smoothie once that was disgusting but considering this has a whole pint of ice cream, I think I could get onboard.

    My dad always ordered peanut butter milkshakes when we went out for ice cream, and I often brought him one to the firehouse when he was working 24 hour shifts, so I’m all over this recipe! Can’t wait to try it!

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
