Happy Thursday! It is really foggy up in here this morning!
Last night I took my shark fin hair to hang out with some friends and Jesus.
We take turns bringing dinner. Next week is my turn – what should I bring?
I started my day with a walk in my new PINK Mizunos (these are the Hitogamis). They are new to me so I just took them for a walk to get a feel for them before I potentially use them for a run. I do this with most new running shoes.
Today is National Pie Day
So, I had pie for breakfast! Yep, that’s how we roll up in here.
Specifically, I made my Blueberry Pie Smoothie. It’s healthy and easy and delicious, just like I like it.
Bonus: Cat ear action in this picture.
Blueberries were on sale this week so I stocked up!
Tip: Adding a few tablespoons of oats to your smoothie give a nice hearty texture.
So smooth.
Truth: I’m more of a cake person than a pie person but I don’t have a recipe for a cake smoothie. If I had to pick pie I’d go with some kinda Oreo Chocolate pie that only exists in my head.
Question: Is Cheesecake Pie or Cake or in a category of it’s own?
Claudia says
I know a cupcakeshop in vienna (austira) they make cupshakes (adding a cupcake to a shake)…something you won’t know how many calories they have! xD
Kelly says
Cheesecake is cheesecake (own category) I’m a cake person myself 🙂
Andie says
Whaat? Isn’t Pie Day March 14th??? (3.14)
SkinnyRunner says
can you bring cake with cream cheese frosting and pickles next week? oh wait, I wont be there so nevermind. bring tofu and bulgar or something.
Losing Lindy says
I think you should bring baked potato bar 😉
I actually do not like pie unless the crust is graham cracker
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
Wow this looks really really delicious!
Jen says
I am definitely a cake person! I have been wondering about the Fitbit. I have a few extended family members that love theirs.
Mahealani @ Spending Time With Salad says
Yum yum! I love anything with blueberries. And cheesecake is custard, which technically is a category of its own, but if you had to choose it’d be under pie rather than cake!
Kelly Schroder says
Hi there. Do you have the recipe for that chicken tortilla soup that’s pictured??? I don’t see it in your recipe files…
Elizabeth @ Positive Change says
I think each dessert is in its own category. I enjoy each one but would have to go with cheesecake the best!
Can’t wait to hear about your shoes and how they do with running!
Cortney says
Im definitely a cake girl…but Hungry Runner Girl makes an AMAZING Oreo ice cream pie. I’ve made it twice, it’s so hard to only have one piece!
runeatrepeat says
Nice! I’m going to ask her to make me one 🙂
Nicole @ Pink Elephant on Parade says
That oreo chocolate pie exists–I used to eat it at an ice cream place growing up. It had a cookies and cream filling with fudged and crumbled oreos on top.
runeatrepeat says
I need it.
Livi says
I think cheesecake is pie! No icing = no cake!
Ashley says
I guess I’d consider it cake if anything . . . but kind of all on it’s own.
Mary@RunWalkLift says
Cheesecake is its own category in heaven. I am doing a cleanse so I can’t celebrate with pie. What about quiche?
Lisa says
Love your blog! I try to get 13000 steps per day, but hoping to up that to 15000 soon!
Nicole says
Maybe next week, you can bring some of your enchiladas or a Meatless Mexican dish??
Laura @ RunningJunkie says
I think cheesecake is definitely in a category of it’s own. I’m not a huge pie person…..or cake. Cookies ALL THE WAY.
Jessica @ PugRunAholic says
Looks super yummy!! 🙂
Shannon B. says
Thanks…I had to go get my blueberry yogurt and eat it early because of your smoothie picture.
Hmmm…that is a chin scratcher? Cheesecake is made in more of a pie pan, but has the word cake in it. I would say class all its own.
Ashley @ Brocblog says
Some cheesecakes have a cake layer so those are cake but if its just crust and cheesecake I think thats its own thang. #science
April says
woah….I actually considered putting a handful of oats in my shake this morning, but figured it wouldn’t shake well (no blender at work). I may have to be creative on that one.
runeatrepeat says
Letting them soak a bit helps them blend and takes some of the rawness out of them if you need a work around.
April says
Thanks!! I took some of my oats and ran them through my chopper (I use it normally to make oat flour) and gave it a pulse or two just to break down the edges and make the oats smaller in size to absorb fluid easier and faster.
I liked the thicker consistency to the shake!! Especially since I have to use water, it was a nice change!
Ali says
Those shoes are cute! I’ve been looking at different Mizunos because I love my Evo Levitas, but the others I’ve tried all have such stiff toeboxes, and I like a little stretch in mine. Do you like the Hitogamis so far?
Abi@AbsofSteel says
cheesecake, pie, and cake all have their own categories. Which means it’s important to have a healthy balance of all of them in your diet 😉
Aimee - funfitgirl says
mmmm I love blueberry and oatmeal smoothies! Definitely trying this tomorrow…maybe with a scoop of vanilla protein.
Linda @ Running4two says
I would kill for an oreo chocolate pie right now… 🙂
2 Cups 'N Run says
Those shoes look really nice, would love to read what you think of them after you try them out.
Chicago Jogger says
This looks delicious. I ate a whole container of blueberries the other night a oops. An expensive habit!
runeatrepeat says
Me too! When I buy the Costco container it is gone in a day – super expensive habit!
Michelle @ 3cheaprunners says
Love your new kicks…Can’t wait to hear your feedback on them
Kate @ Coffee with Kate says
I should try blueberries in a smoothie. I suck and don’t like blueberries as a food but I like the flavor of them. So if it’s disguised in a smoothie with only the flavor, maybe I’ll like it!
runeatrepeat says
I’m kinda the opposite – I use blueberry yogurt in this recipe because I don’t like that flavor yogurt at all. I love blueberries straight up though.
Jackie says
It’s a category of its own!
Shawna says
mmm now i totally want a blueberry smoothie. i need to get back into making them! ps – friends and Jesus = one of my fave type of nights, too.
Chris says
You should try Coach’s Oats from Costco. Much better than the Quaker stuff.
runeatrepeat says
I’ve tried them 🙂
