3 Ingredient Biscuits

May 17, 2014 Amanda Plott

Yes, only 3 ingredients are needed to make these perfectly guilt free biscuits! I can honestly say that I've never made biscuits from scratch before, so I was a little nervous about trying this for the first time. I'm not really sure why I've never made them before. Perhaps I had it in my mind that they were supposed to be daily difficult and taxing. I've made plenty of other breads, rolls, cakes, etc... So why not biscuits?

These were super easy and I was entirely surprised and thrilled with how well they turned out! Especially considering that they only took 3 ingredients and about 10 minutes of preparing. That's it!...

Crock Pot Peaches & Cream Irish Oatmeal (Quicker)

I have really been in the mood for peaches lately. Perhaps I'm more ready for summer than I thought. In the summer, peaches have to be one of my most favorite things in the world to eat.

I couldn't be more happy about the city of Fredericksburg being right down the road from me. A lot of the locals from there will sell their homegrown peaches on the side of the roads here when peach season is upon us. It's heaven...

Apple Cinnamon Chia Pudding

Ch-ch-ch-chia!

Chia seeds are full of health benefits. These amazing little seeds slow digestion, help prevent spikes in blood sugar for diabetics, are full of fiber, omega-3, calcium, manganese, protein, and so much more. They also help you feel fuller faster.

I use chia seeds in many things. I put them in a Chia Fresca to drink almost every day, and even use them in one of my favorite salad dressings! I've been wanting to make a chia pudding for a long while now, but somehow the timing just never quite worked out right...

Blueberry & Banana Melon Bowl

Sometimes you just need some fruit in your life.

After a weekend of cake filled preschooler birthday I felt like I needed a more 'grain free' breakfast this morning to let my body settled and readjust itself. I wanted something light but filling enough to hold me through my morning.

My first thought was yogurt and fruit, but it wasn't quite appealing enough. A hah! What about a self containing breakfast? An edible bowl!...

Skinny Mixed Berry Cobbler

March 16, 2014 Amanda Plott

A few weeks back I was sent a Wilton Armetale Casserole/Baker, at no charge to me, to try out and give my honest opinion on. Since today starts up March Madness, I wanted to do something inspired by Tailgating!

Of course, there were the usual suspects... but, I wanted to do some dessert since I feel that it's a severely overlooked additional to any proper Tailgating experience.

Since I wanted the dish to be Tailgating friendly it had to be something that could be prepared a few hours in advance, was versatile, and could be cooked on the grill just as easily as it could be in the oven...

Skinny Eggs Florentine Breakfast Tacos

March 13, 2014 Amanda Plott

Breakfast is the one meal of the day that I tend skip most often. I think it's just... somehow easily lost in the shuffle of life and missed somewhere between getting up and ready or rushing around to get my little girl out the door and off to school.

I have found that if I have a breakfast in mind that is planned, easy, tastes amazing and is somewhat portable... I have no excuse to miss out on the most important meal of the day.

These have been my go-to breakfast for about two weeks now. After all, how do you say no to bacon and eggs? Easy. You don't!...
