Blueberry Poptart Stuffed Blended & Baked Oatmeal

July 29, 2021 Amanda Plott

Do you like pop tarts? Do you like blueberries? Then you’ve got to try this Blueberry Poptart Stuffed Blended & Baked Oatmeal! Okay, so I know that’s a mouthful, but it’s important to get the point across that these oats are blended into basically an oat flour and then used to make a cakelike or muffinlike base. So even if you aren’t a fan of oatmeal usually, you may like this blended option!

It’s a super clever and simple way to get some oatmeal in your life without the usual oatmeal texture. To make these oats even better, I stuffed them with blueberry goodness and topped it all off with a drizzle of glaze and some rainbow sprinkles, because sprinkles are life…

Instant Pot Poached Eggs

July 23, 2021 Amanda Plott

It’s been a good long while since I had some eggs for breakfast and if I’m being very honest? I’ve never had a poached egg before in my life. I’ve had them just about every other way there is other than poached. So, this morning I decided to try my hand at it. However it’s summer and I’m lazy. Instant Pot to the rescue!

Oh, how many times the Instant Pot has saved me.

These eggs are cooked up in no time and require NO technical or cooking skills what-so-ever. That’s right. these poached eggs are cooked right in the pressure cooker and you can play around with the timing to get them exactly where you want them as far as yolks go…

Skinny Biscuits & Gravy Cups

Biscuits and gravy cups? That’s right! Biscuit dough cups that are filled with an easy to make homemade sausage gravy that makes it all perfectly grab-and-go friendly while also being great for the kiddos! While these Skinny Biscuits & Gravy Cups are cute and even impressive, they are actually really simple and easy to make with just a handful of ingredients.

Since there isn’t a whole lot you can do to lighten up this biscuit part (outside of making your own biscuit dough), I did just about everything I could to make the gravy better-for-you. I started the gravy off with a lean turkey breakfast sausage and then swapped in almond milk for regular milk. I also used a reduced fat cheddar in place of regular…

July 7, 2021 Amanda Plott

This morning I decided to take the tortilla wrap trend to the next level with this pesto-goodness loaded breakfast wrap! This tortilla trend has just about a little of everything. Fresh veggies, pesto, cheese, bacon, and of course egg!

It’s delicious and takes just a few minutes to toss together. Plus, being as it’s a tortilla trend, it’s completely portable and makes for the BEST grab-and-go breakfast you can get your hands on. And with just a few simple swaps, this breakfast is completely guilt-free…

Skinny Baked Galaxy Donuts

June 24, 2021 Amanda Plott

Last night was a full moon. So it just seemed appropriate to make these Skinny Baked Galaxy Donuts today. These donuts are baked (obviously) and are a mix of my Baked Dark Chocolate Coffee Donuts and my Unicorn Donuts. In other words, they’re a chocolate cake based donut with a colorful vanilla frosting and of course galaxy inspired sprinkles on top!

The best part is that you can use whatever space-like sprinkles you want and colors for frosting to match. My frostings were pretty dark and most of it just disappeared into the ether of the donuts only to serve as glue for the sprinkles to the donuts themselves. But, that’s fine. Lots of sprinkles it is!…

Skinny No Bake Cookies

June 15, 2021 Amanda Plott

Remember those delicious no bake cookies from your childhood? I sure do! They were something that my mom and I would make on occasion, especially for sleep overs since they’re an easy and tasty recipe that kids can help make. …And getting to eat and enjoy the end result is always enticing!

Did I mention that it’s getting hot here in Texas and that these cookies requite NO BAKING? That’s right. Just a few minutes of the stove being on, but not the oven. Another good thing about these cookies and the heat of summer is that you can store them in the fridge to have nice cold chewy cookies ready to snack on…
