Breakfast Banana Split
Just agree, please. Don’t take this away from me! 😉
Git in Mah Belly!
I was quite a fan of this little creation and was surprised at just how filling the meal turned out to be.
In the mix:
- 1 banana, sliced lengthwise
- Chobani vanilla Greek yogurt
- Freshly sliced strawberries
- Sweet potato puffs cereal
- Chia seeds

Fruit + Yog + Seeds + Cereal
I already have a bazillion different ideas about combinations to try to create various breakfast banana splits. I’m thinkin’ candied nuts, pumpkin, cottage cheese, oats… the possibilities are endless. Aren’t you pumped!? 😀
Workout
I enjoyed my breakfast after an early morning workout and a walk around the lake with Sadie.
My workout today included a BodyPump class (holy squat track!), followed by 20 minutes of light cardio on the elliptical. I spent my time on the elliptical watching recaps of the Academy Awards since I only watched some of the pre-show last night just to get a glimpse of the pretty dresses.
My favorites dresses included those worn by Mila Kunis:

Scarlett Johansson:

And Halle Berry:

I thought all of their dresses looked feminine and gorgeous, especially Mila Kunis’ gown. So, so whimsical and pretty.
Question of the Morning
- Did you watch the Academy Awards? Who do you think was the “best dressed” of the evening?
![\"Quantcast\"/](\"//pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-1e3-7hOJ_U8Bg.gif\")
I don’t have a tv, but I’m trying to catch up this morning online via blogs and eonline.com. 🙂 I love Mila and Halle’s dresses! ScarJo, not so much. 😉
Regarding breakfast banana splits, I have three words: Chocolate nut butter.
oh.em.gee. that sounds AMAZING!! good call… good call.
Reese Witherspoon was up stunning to me. Natalie Portman was rocking her soon-to-be-mother glow too.
i LOVED reese’s hair. it looked amazing! natalie portman is ALWAYS breathtaking to me.
I watched all of it-I love award shows-and I thought that Sandra Bullock was the best dressed. She’s so gorgeous!
I loved Mila’s!!! But heard a lot of people didn’t. Oh well, I think she rocked it!!
But what was up with Scar Jo’s hair? It looked like she rolled out of bed with it.
And I agree with Stacie, Natalie Portman looked amazing!!
My vote for Best Dressed goes to Gwyneth Paltrow. Loved her sexy, shimmery dress and her sleek, straight hair. Stunning!
i watcher one of her interviews and she seems like such a cool person. very down to earth.
and by “watcher” i clearly mean “watched.”
Yes! I agree. I LOVED Mila Kunis’s dress the best. Such a pretty color, too. Although, I was not a fan of Scarlett. She looked like a doiley.
LOL – yeah i knew her dress would be controversial. 🙂 i love anything lace though, so she won me over.
That breakfast looks delicious! I never watch Awards shows but I always like to look at the dresses the next day. Honestly I completely forgot they were on last night… but shhhh – don’t tell! 🙂
That “banana split” looks delicious! I love the great recipes you always come up with!
That breakfast looks amazing. Too bad I already ate! I will try it tomorrow for sure.
I loved Mila’s, but I didn’t see Scarlett last night. Wow, she is gorgeous.
loved Reese! Breakfast looks fabulous! You could always add pumpkin during the fall to give it a different twist!
Camila Alves, wife of Matthew McConaughey, looked STUNNING in a plunging neckline black number, and Reese was classic Hollywood, all the way!
I thought Mila Kunis looked stunning — LOVE the color of that dress (you don’t really see many lavendar dresses out there). Though Anne Hathaway was gorgeous as well, I feel like I’ve seen that look on her before.
Loved Mila and Gwyneth both! And I thought Reese and Anne Hathaway both had great hair! Not a fan of the Scar Jo look this time around.
I had breakfast banana splits on Saturday morning! Check out my blog for pictures! I had never heard of them and my sister wanted to make them… I’m hooked! SO yum and fun to make! I got carried away with toppings and put nuttella and went all out! LOVE IT!
I think Mila Kunis and Halle Berry both look amazing…not many times I can say that Halle doesn’t look amazing though. Reese looked adorable as always too.
Was not feeling Scarlett’s look at all…didn’t think the dress flattered her and her hair just looked, sorry to say, dirty to me!
I think Mila looked fantastic.
On a side note to breakfast– I tried your bagel thin, jam (I had blackberry) and cheese (provolone) sandwich today and YUM. I was seriously doubting you, but I’m spreading the word. I will be trying the egg combo next. So thanks 🙂
Halle Berry… I think is my favorite of the night. Anne Hathaway wore some beautiful gowns too though!
That breakfast great! I really liked Halle Berry’s dress…and anyone that can rock that hairstyle is gorgeous in my book.
2 of your 3 made my best dressed list! I think Scarlett is a knock-out and that color was gorgeous, but it didn’t “wow” me.
My two favorites were Scarlett Johannsen and Mila Kunis!
I thought Mila looked amazing but I actually was not a fan of Scarlett’s look. When I expressed this to my boyfriend he told me to stop talking crazy talk.
I actually LOVED Selena Gomez’s look … very exotic but since she is so freaking young … she just glows glows glows 🙂
Scarlett gets my worst dressed nod.
My best dressed is on the blog, but Halle, Hailee, Amy Adams and Gwenyth (shocking cause i dont like her or her style much)
And Nicole Kidman was on my worst dressed list.
Breakfast looks delish! Can’t wait to try! 🙂
Mila’s was great — along with Gwenyth. Jennifer Hudson ROCKED her new body! Good for her!
I think Halle ran away with it. Stunning. Just stunning. She was one of my few “wow” moments of the evening. I like Mila’s dress, but I wasn’t in love with it.
What a yummy looking breakfast! I liked Mila, Scarlett, Jennifer Hudson, and Busy Philips dresses. I really liked all of the different shades of purples the women were wearing.
I thought Mila look amazing! I also though Natalie Portman looked just beautiful and glowing!
I LOVED Mila Kunis’s dress! She is so gorgeous and always seems like she has so much fun! I also thought Natalie Portman looked beautiful- she’s definitely got that pregnancy glow going on!
OOOOH may I come for breakfast next time you serve that? 😀
I loved Anne Hathaway’s dresses.
Wouldn’t some Dark chocolate dreams be good on the breakfast banana split? or some of that chocolate walnut butter that you made the other day! =D
I loove mila’s dress! and halle’s is gorgeous too!
LOVED Mila’s dress – definitely my favorite! My husband loved Scarlett’s because he has a slight obsession with her! 🙂 I think those two have been called out as “best dressed” by a lot of people now.
I LOVED Reese’s dress (probably because I have a shorter version of it from White House Black Market :)), and I thought Sandra Bullock looked great too.
I liked Mila’s dress and Reese Witherspoon’s, but I have to say I was kind of disappointed that I didn’t absolutely adore anyone’s. Usually there are one or two that I’d pretty much die to wear, but of the big contenders no one had one like that this year!
I think Jennifer Hudson’s dress was my favourite – the colour looked gorgeous on her and she is so beautiful. Loved Halle Berry’s as well! 🙂
My favorites were Michelle Williams and Jennifer Lawrence! Wasn’t loving ScarJo :/ But, I’ve got to say that I was disappointed with the fashion overall. Where’s January Jones when you need her?!
I watched about 2/3 of the show last night, and I would have to say that Mila was rockin’ it in her dress. It was so pretty and looked great with her skin tone.
I loooooved Mila’s dress! I couldn’t stop staring at it when she was presenting! So pretty.
Definitely liked Halle’s the best…she is SO stunning! And that color is hard to pull off. Mila’s is gorgeous too; I LOVE that light purple color.
Mila!
I LOVE eating bananas like that!
I personal love spreading obscene amounts of peanut, almond, or cashew butter on the banana and then sprinkling it with some of you chocolate protein granola!
YUM!
I definitely thought Mila Kunis was up there! Loved Jennifer Hudson and Sandra Bullock as well.
Reese and Natalie for sure. I thought Jennifer Hudson and Gwyneth Paltrow looked pretty/glowing 🙂 I didn’t watch it, but I did look up the dresses, of course!
I loved Mila Kunis’ dress. She looked gorgeous. Not so much a fan of Scarlett Johansson. I thought Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mandy Moore, and Anne Hathaway x7 all looked beautiful.
Does Halle Berry ever age?! She looks amazing! And that dress?! Gawd!
I loved Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman! Personally, I thought Mandy Moore looked like Big Bird, but blue! I like Mandy Moore but not her dress last night! I also lived Reece’s hair. She always reminds me of a barbie doll!
I loved Hailee Steinfeld’s dress. She looked so age appropriate and really pretty.
Halle was sexy and chic as usual–loved it.
Camila Alves looked stunning!
Jennifer Hudson looked really good, but her wig was really stiff–didn’t like that.
Reese Witherspoon almost looked good, but what was up with that cheap pony-tail weave? It looked uber ghetto.
I loved the color of milas dress but when she was presenting an award the tie around her waist was very unflattering! I thought Reese n Halle (I’m pretending were friends with first name basis talk) looked the best!
What a super fun breakfast, Julie! Thanks for including us. And Mila Kunis’ dress was by far my favorite of the night. She looked stunning!
Best,
Emily, Chobani
I loved Hailee Steinfeld’s and Mandy Moore’s dresses the absolute best! But I really liked Mila Kunis’s gown color!
