It’s peanut butter jelly time!
Anyone remember that song? Or maybe this song…”Peanut butter, peanut butter…and jelly! First you take the knife and you spread it, spread it…”
Ok, enough of the corny songs this morning, but I thought that was a good opener since I’m sharing this Peanut Butter and jelly Granola Smoothie with you today.
But, before we dive into that, did I tell you that I started taking Pure Barre classes? I mentioned a while ago that I was thinking of starting, so I finally took the plunge and went for it. I have to say that I’m hooked and it’s such a great way to get into shape. I’ve been trying to go 3-4 times a week, and I love how energized (and sore!) I feel after my class.
I have to admit that I was nervous to try Pure Barre before I started, mainly because the class sizes are small, everyone knows each other, and I heard that the workouts are intense (that is SO true). But, I had to get out of my comfort zone and just go for it. And it’s been so worth it! I often have trouble keeping a consistent workout schedule because the gym is just so boring, but with Pure Barre, I actually look forward to going to class.
And that reminds me of my school days. Sometimes, I would get nervous starting a new grade or a new school, but I just had to dive in. I really didn’t have a choice. And once I was there, I was fine and enjoyed it.
Even now, I’ve been trying to focus on starting my day with a breakfast that will set the tone. You know, one that gets me off to an energized and positive start. And that’s where Jimmy Dean® Croissant Sausage Egg Cheese. It’s made from real ingredients (real sausage, eggs, and cheese) and is a satisfying breakfast that can be ready in three minutes.
So when I was shopping at Meijer last week, I stocked up on Jimmy Dean® Croissant Sausage Egg Cheese and State Fair® Corn Dogs. They’re the perfect breakfast, lunch and dinner options to keep me fueled all day long. This is also perfect for back-to-school season, as these foods are easy to make and even better to eat!
Which brings me to this Peanut Butter and Jelly Granola Smoothie. I like to have a protein-filled dish when it comes to meals, so I decided to whip up a nutritious smoothie.
This Peanut Butter and Jelly Granola Smoothie is thick, creamy, and packed with a classic peanut butter and jelly taste, in drink form. Filled with frozen strawberries, vanilla Greek yogurt, creamy peanut butter, and crunchy granola, this smoothie is ready just minutes and is perfect to serve for just about any meal!
And you know I’m all about the smoothies! From this Raspberry Almond Butter Smoothie Bowl, to that Banana Bread Smoothie, and this Blueberry Blast Smoothie, I love experimenting with new flavors. And since I’m trying to stay in the habit of exercising and eating better, this smoothie definitely fit the bill.
Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are still a favorite of mine, so I decided to take my love for this classic dish and put it into drink form. And to add the finishing touch, I topped it with some crunch granola. Sounds pretty good, right?
And besides the sweet and delicious, taste, this Peanut Butter and Jelly Granola Smoothie is so easy to whip up! Simply combine some frozen strawberries, a frozen, sliced banana, Greek yogurt, milk, peanut butter, and granola into the canister of a blender and blend away.
Pour into a glass, top with extra peanut butter and granola, and be prepared to wow your taste buds. The sweet strawberry flavors acts as the jelly, while the peanut butter, and granola add a milder taste. One sip and you’ll be transported back to your school days.
So if you’re looking for a delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner that’s packed with protein, pick up some Jimmy Dean® Croissant Sausage Egg Cheese and State Fair® Corn Dogs and make this Peanut Butter and Jelly Granola Smoothie. It’s perfect for back-to-school time, workout time, and any other time!

It’s definitely a delicious combo! Thanks, Sarah!
Granola on a smoothie is one thing- but IN it is a whole new level of deliciousness! Love the idea 🙂

There is a part of me that wishes we lived in the city so that I could try some classes at a gym! Here I am stuck to working out by myself at home 🙁 I definitely love fueling up with a hearty breakfast and a smoothie mid morning — such a great way to start the day!
I’ve tried other classes before, but this is the only one that motivates me to go…so I’m trying to stick with it! 🙂 Thanks for the smoothie love, Ashley!
This looks incredible, Gayle! Love PB and jelly, so I definitely need to try it in a smoothie! 🙂

Forget about the fact that my kids just went back to school…I think that I need this smoothie because I’m officially addicted to a smoothie per day for breakfast…and this sounds PERFECT!
Smoothies for breakfast are the best! Thanks, Blair!
Breakfast totally sets the tone for the entire day, for sure! With the right kind of breakfast, you feel like you can face anything! This smoothie definitely looks like the perfect breakfast to kick off an awesome day. Also, I’m SO proud of you for going to a Pure Barre class, even though you were a bit anxious. How awesome does it feel to try something new and know that you grew because of it? 🙂 I always love hearing about you fitness adventures, and even moreso, the creative snacks you make to keep you fueled, Gayle. 🙂 Pinning and sharing, of course! Happy Monday, my friend. 🙂
Thank you, Demeter! I was pretty proud that I finally tried pure barre! 🙂 Hope your Monday is off to a great start!
Congrats on starting up with Pure Barre, Gayle! I used to take classes that were similar and they were such a great workout, and going 3-4 times a week is really good! This smoothie looks like the perfect breakfast or post-workout snack. It’s so thick and creamy, and I love that granola crunch on top!
Thank you, Marcie! I love it so far, so I hope I stick with it haha! 🙂 Thanks for the smoothie love, too!
Omg my girlfriend just told me I needed to try out Barre. I think I’m gonna give it a try but I’m so scared. Wish we lived closer then we could do these classes together. I want to get into smoothies again when the kids go back to school. I will be making this one for sure. It looks so refreshing!!
Barre is SO hard but pretty much the best workout I’ve ever had! Thanks for the kind words, friends!
I love that down-the-blender shot with that BIG glob of peanut butter – my kind of smoothie! 😀 This looks super delicious and I could suck it right down. Yum! So much goodness, Gayle.
Gobs of peanut butter are much needed, right? 🙂 Thank you, Rachel!
Peanut butter and jelly in a smoothie?! Yes, please! I really can’t get enough of that combo, so this is perfect!
Thanks, Amanda!

Yay, so glad you love the Pure Barre classes, Gayle! The closest studio to my house is about 40 minutes away so I’ve just been doing strength training with weights which I love too. This smoothie is the perfect way to fuel up! Love the peanut butter, jelly and granola!
Strength training sounds like such a good workout too, Kelly! Thanks for the smoothie love!
