Broccoli & Butternut Squash Omelettata

January 6, 2017 Amanda Plott

Brrrr! It's freezing here in Austin today. No, like... literally it is. I needed an excuse to turn the oven on since that always helps warm the house up and I sure enough found that excuse when trying to figure out what I was going to do with myself for breakfast. I remembered that I had gotten these wonderful farm fresh eggs and local produce yesterday and just knew they would fit the bill.

So, I kicked on my oven and got to work.

I've made an omelettata before, but it's been a while. Almost a year to the day actually! It's pretty funny how things work out sometimes...

Baked Egg & Avocado Bowls

January 2, 2017 Amanda Plott

Drool.

This is an oldie, but a goodie. I originally made these Baked Egg & Avocado Bowls back in 2013! So, to say that the photos needed some updating and the post needed a face-lift would be a bit of an understatement.

I had been wanting to share this recipe ever since I started this blog a whole 5 months before it actually made it into fruition. (That was now nearly 4 years ago! Can you believe it?!) It's super easy, healthy, and yes... tastes every bit amazing as it looks.

Who can say no to a warmed avocado with baked eggs, cheese, and bacon?

Not this girl.

I couldn't 4 years ago, and I still can't today!...

Healthy Gingerbread Loaf

December 22, 2016 Amanda Plott

It's that crazy time of year when it just doesn't seem like there's enough hours in the day! I'm busy shopping, wrapping, decorating, and getting everything in order for Christmas and New Years. Come on 2017. That being said, I woke up this morning and decided to get this Healthy Gingerbread Loaf whipped up and ready for the influx of company to enjoy.

If you love pumpkin bread and you love gingerbread cookies, then you are going to adore this Healthy Gingerbread Loaf! It's got just enough gingery spice and sweetness to blend perfectly together. One of my favorite things about this bread is that it's great for a holiday breakfast, gifting, or just having around to snack on. Plus, you can make it a few days in advance!...

Skinny Whole Wheat Egg Nog Pancakes

December 19, 2016 Amanda Plott

It's day one of having my little girl home and officially off of school for the holidays and I could not be more excited! On top of all of the holiday fun and festivities, she's started getting her 6 year molars and her first 'big girl' tooth. Looks like the tooth fairy will be stopping by in the next month or so!

But, before all of that we have the Holidays right around the corner. To get us all in the holiday spirit on this joyous Monday morning, I decided to whip up a batch of these Skinny Whole Wheat Egg Nog Pancakes. Don't worry though, there's no alcohol in these, just the wonderful flavors of egg not that even the kiddos can enjoy!...

Breakfast Egg Rolls with Sausage Gravy

December 6, 2016 Amanda Plott

I saw this fabulous idea a long time ago on Pinterest, and I just knew that I had to make a version of it for myself. I've never been one for frying things and I will do just about anything I can to lighten up food; whether it be lessening the calories, using more wholesome ingredients, or some other clever way in which I see fit.

These Breakfast Egg Rolls with Sausage Gravy are where it's at! This has to be one of the most tasty and fun breakfasts that I've put together in a good long time, and it's just a pity that I was the only one home this morning to enjoy them. Oh, well... maybe next time I'll have some company over to feed!...

Breakfast Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

November 22, 2016 Amanda Plott

It's just a couple of days before Thanksgiving and I'm running around like a mad woman to get things done. This year we're doing things a bit different... getting the family the heck outta here for some untraditional turkey day glamping (that's camping in a glamorous manner.) I'll be the first to admit that God didn't build me in a manner that would suffice actual 'camping'. I enjoy hot showers, beds, central air, and food far too much to be the outdoorsy type.

Glamping though? Sign. Me. Up!

I got a small cabin in the woods rented out for a couple of days and I am all about this fancy-pants version of camping. Awe-SOME. While I'm getting myself in order and ready to head out on the road, I can't neglect breakfast this week. So, I'm hot on the tails of these AMAZING Breakfast Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms! Seriously. This is one of the best breakfasts I've concocted in a good while...
