Tomato Galette

July 12, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s the middle of Summer and tomatoes are a plenty! I got my hands on a WHOLE LOT of home grown tomatoes from family less than a week ago so I decided to use them up in a lot of ways this week. Now, one of my favorite things to do with tomatoes is to make a tomato pie, but today I decided to go a little fancy with this Tomato Galette!

I started this Tomato Galette off with a basic pie crust, it’s one that I had stashed away in the freezer. Then I layered on some herbed goat cheese and caramelized some shallots to go over that. Then it was the tomatoes; my big beefy juicy tomatoes…

Green Goddess Jar Salad

July 9, 2022 Amanda Plott

I’m pretty much in love with jar salads right now. They’re just so easy to toss a few together and have them ready to grab-and-go for busy day lunches. This Green Goddess Jar Salad is probably one of my most favorites of the ones that I’ve made so far. It’s light and has a really good mix of textures and flavors between the lettuce, quinoa, tangy pickled onions, and feta cheese too!

As with any jar salad, the layering here is really important. You want to be sure to keep the lettuce and feta up off the dressing at the bottom. When you’re ready to eat it, you just give it a quick shake and either eat straight out of the container or pour out onto a bowl or salad plate…

Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas

I was thinking the other day about enchiladas and I started to wonder… why are they always for lunch or dinner? Isn’t there a way to have them for breakfast? Enchiladas for breakfast? You bet! These Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas are made by rolling up vegetarian sausage, eggs, and cheese up in a tortilla and then baking them in a homemade gravy.

They’re absolutely delicious and perfect for making as a weekend breakfast or brunch. Plus, you can always make them ahead of time and then heat them for the final bake when you’re ready to enjoy. They reheat well too if you make a batch and have leftovers, you can always enjoy them through the week for a quick breakfast bite…

Mediterranean Veggie Wrap

July 3, 2022 Amanda Plott

With a busy holiday weekend and a holiday itself cutting into the week, I like to be sure that I have plenty of ready-made lunches on hand so that I don’t have to fret about it in the midst of chaos. This Mediterranean Veggie Wrap is one of my new favorite grab-and-go lunches. It’s cool, and crisp, and filling while also being light and vegetarian too!

This wrap starts out with lavash bread, which is honestly my preferred wrap because it can double as a tortilla, and triple as a flat bread pizza crust! Plus, it’s super high in fiber and low in calories. So, you get a lot of bang for your buck. They can do pretty much anything and have just enough stretch to make for the perfect vehicle for a wrap…

Air-Fryer Homemade Pizza Rolls

June 30, 2022 Amanda Plott

Homemade pizza rolls? Uhm, yes please! When I was a kid, one of my favorite things was pizza rolls. I mean, who doesn’t like little popable bites of pizza goodness? With deciding to have a ‘snack’ food dinner this week, I thought I’d try my hand at making some pizza rolls in the air-fryer. Not just any pizza rolls though, homemade ones!

These Air-Fryer Homemade Pizza Rolls are DELISH and even better than their frozen pre-made brethren. And the best part is that you get to decide what goes into them. Today I went with pepperoni and cheese, simple enough, but you could definitely go with sausage, or any other sort of cheese or meat that you like on your pizza. Veggies are another option too!…

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Pockets

June 27, 2022 Amanda Plott

All the breakfast favorites, tucked away inside a pillow pocket of dough. We’re talking bacon, egg, and cheese! These Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Pockets are surprisingly easy to make, and delicious too. Plus, they’re great to have on hand as a grab-and-go option during the week. You know what that means, they reheat really well with a quick pop into the microwave or toaster oven.

You can feel free to make these your own too. Spice them up with some jalapeño. Swap the bacon for breakfast sausage. Or even change up the cheese used for a favorite or just something you have on hand. No matter which way you go, these things are delish!…
