Lightened Up Chicken Spaghetti

November 5, 2018 Amanda Plott

I think Chicken Spaghetti is a classic that almost all of us enjoy at one point or another in our childhood. While my mom claims to have made it a few times when I was a kid, I mostly remember trying it for the first time at my grandma’s house. Even though my grandma was the cook of the family, I’m still not sure if it was her or one of my aunts that made the chicken spaghetti.

If you are one of the unlucky few that never had chicken spaghetti, well you’re in for a treat today. Chicken Spaghetti is… pretty much what it sounds like. Chicken + spaghetti noodles. It’s not like classic spaghetti though. There’s no tomato spaghetti sauce involved here. Oh, no. No, no, no…

Skinny Strawberry Pop-Tart Cobbler

Sometimes… you get a wild idea and you just have to go with it. This Skinny Strawberry Pop-Tart Cobbler was definitely one such idea. I had come across a fun idea for a strawberry pop-tart pie, but.. to be completely honest with you, homemade pie crust scares me. So, I started to think back to this summer when I made a few delicious and easy cobblers. Then BOOM lightening struck and the world made sense.

…Why not make the strawberry pop-tart into a cobbler instead?

If you’ve ever had a pop-tart before, then you know you’re in for a big treat here. The strawberry ‘filling’ part of this cobbler is meant to taste just like the strawberry ‘filling’ that you’d find in a pop-tart…

I’ve got three little words. …Pumpkin. Alfredo. Lasagna. Okay, maybe they’re BIG words. The point is though, they go great together. I’ve had this thought in my head for a while now, so when I got my hands on Premio Sweet Italian Chicken Sausage I knew exactly what I was going to do with it!

This pumpkin Alfredo lasagna is not your average lasagna. It’s layer upon layer of noodle, pumpkin puree, cheese, spices, Alfredo, spinach more cheese, and YES Premio Sweet Italian Chicken Sausage…

Tater Tot Breakfast Bake

Breakfast does not have to be a chore. This Tater Tot Breakfast Bake is quick to toss together and pretty much does it's own thing while baking in the oven. Giving you plenty of time to do other important things. You know... like settling into your back-to-school routine. One of the best parts about this breakfast casserole though, is that it can be made ahead and popped in the oven any time.

Being as it makes a rather decent sized pan of it, you could probably enjoy this all week long with a quick reheat in the morning to enjoy it again. This is a pretty hearty and filling breakfast too. There's layers of sausage, egg, cheese, potatoes and yes... even some bacon!…

Skinny One-Pan Chicken Pot Pie

July 18, 2018 Amanda Plott

Picture this. It's the end of my week. I go grocery shopping on Thursdays and... I legit have had nothing planned to cook for the past few days. So, to say that I'm running on fumes over here would be an understatement. I've got pieces and parts of a few different things, but nothing that seemingly went together.

Trying to avoid a trip to the store or fast-food I got to thinking. My initial thought for dinner tonight was to make a quiche since I've got some eggs leftover. But, I also really really really don't want to have my oven on. Much less for an entire hour. NEXT. Being as I had some leftover phyllo dough in the freezer along with a plethora of veggies... I settled on a pot pie!

If you're looking for a mashed potato alternative, look no further! I've made mashed cauliflower a lot of times and for many different kinds of meals. This one though, is the perfect quick and easy side dish that is sure to wow the entire family, whether as part of a busy weeknight or weekend get together.

These mashed no-tatoes are made with cauliflower instead of potatoes and are loaded up with all the goodies to make them 'fully loaded'. We're talking bacon, cheese, green onion... the works!…
