PB&J Snack Mix

May 25, 2021 Amanda Plott

Summer is coming and it’s always nice to have a snack mix on hand for yourself, others, or the kiddos when you’re out and about. And hopefully we all get to be just a little more out and about this year. This PB&J Snack Mix is a great grab-and-go mix because it’s very summer friendly being as there isn’t much in here that’s prone to the summer heat.

This mix has some good stuff in it that pretty much any PB&J lover will adore. Real strawberries. Peanuts. And a lot in between. This snack mix has just a little bit of everything from salty to sweet and back again along with a variety of textures ranging from soft to crunchy…

Skinny Instant Pot Corndogs

I’ve definitely done some baking in my Instant Pot. Oh, yeah. Did you know that you could bake in a pressure cooker? I didn’t for the longest time, but once I learned that it was a thing, I was in it for the long haul. These Skinny Instant Pot Corndogs are super fast to whip up and only take about 9 minutes in the pressure cooker to… bake!

These fun corndog bites are something kids and adults will both enjoy! Plus, they’re lightened up and just over 100 calories in one. Compare that to other corndogs out there, especially fried ones, and you’ll realize pretty quickly just how light these are…

What a perfectly deful way to start out your morning!

With just under 250 calories in a full breakfast burrito, you can happily serve one of these along side some salsa, fresh fruit, and maybe a cup of coffee for a filling and guiltless beginning to your day.

Plus, with these being easily doubled or tripled - you could make them ahead and freeze to grab and reheat on any busy day of the week!…

Vegetarian Cheeseburger Salad

I don’t know. Sometimes you just can’t decide between things. Today I wanted a cheeseburger. Also a salad. Also something meatless. What does that mean? Time for a Vegetarian Cheeseburger Salad! I’ve made a few renditions of a burger bowl/salad before. Some with meat. Some without. This one has to be one of my favorites.

It’s a fun combination of three things that I absolutely adore. Less meat. More veggies. And crazy easy! this dinner takes well under 30 minutes to make and it’s something that everyone at the dinner table is sure to love. Meat-eater or no…

Strawberry Pop-Tart Overnight Oats

Just a few more weeks and my kiddo will be out for summer. And these last few weeks are always super DUPER busy. In order to avoid skipping out on breakfast in the morning, I like to have a few things on hand that I can grab-and-go eat with no excuses and no guilt. That’s where these Strawberry Pop-Tart Overnight Oats come into play.

Overnight oats are tasty, easy to make, and an excellent thing to meal prep. The oats themselves are left overnight in a mixture of almond milk, greek yogurt, some sweetener, and real-deal cake batter flavor. They’re also stuffed full of strawberry goodness and then topped off with a drizzle of frosting and even rainbow sprinkles!…

Pizza Monkey Bread

May 7, 2021 Amanda Plott

Craving pizza but tired of the same old thing? Try this Pizza Monkey Bread! It’s a fun and easy savory twist on monkey bread that turns pizza into a bite sized dipper that the whole family is sure to love. One of the best parts is that it’s a great way to mix things up on pizza night to have something for everyone without having to make or bake several different kinds of pizza.

I did mine with half having some olives and mushrooms while the other half was chopped up turkey pepperoni and mushroom. So everyone got something they wanted. It’s great for family game night or for kiddos at a sleepover once that becomes a thing again!..
