Gingerbread Cobbler

December 5, 2020 Amanda Plott

Sometimes you just have to shake dessert up. This holiday season would be the great time to start a new tradition. Instead of the usual pies and cookies, why not try out this Gingerbread Cobbler! This Gingerbread Cobbler is very similar to my Whole Wheat Pumpkin Cobbler, but more in line with Christmas or New Years than Thanksgiving!

Cobbler just seems like the perfect winter dessert. It’s warm, gooey, and filling too. My mom seems to think that this cobbler is like those old fashioned pudding cakes where you layer the batter on the bottom of the pan and pour hot liquid on top to bake. While baking, the cake bubbles up to the top and the gooey pudding cobbler goodness is on the bottom…

Individual Pizza Pot Pies

October 4, 2020 Amanda Plott

Yep! Pizza in the form of a pot pie. Turned upside down into a delicious individual bowl of pizza goodness. This pizza pot pie makes it’s very own pizza crust bread bowl that is perfect for a single serving of cheesy sauce ‘deep dish’ style pizza!

The best part is that you can alter each individual pizza to have your own favorite toppings. I left the main part of these as ‘cheese pizza’ so that you can customize and add your other pizza topping favorites. I added pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, and jalapeños to mine…

Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal

If you’re a fan of pecan pie and you’re a fan of oatmeal, you’re going to love this Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal! It’s basically my Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal with a candied pecan pie style topping. It’s perfect for chilly Fall mornings as we get closer to Halloween AND Thanksgiving. This Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal would actually make a really great breakfast for the morning of Thanksgiving because you can make it ahead of time and bake it in the morning. No fuss. no muss.

Of course, one of my favorite things about this oatmeal, is for sure the topping, but the ease of making it and having it on hand and ready to go for breakfast is pretty nice too….

Duo Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas

Generally when I make enchiladas, I make them naked. Whether stuffed into a zucchini or wrapped in greens of some sort. This time around I decided to go with the real deal. These Duo Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas are made with not one sauce, but two! Giving you a variety of flavors all in one enchilada.

Green sauce down one side, red sauce down the other, and all of them being loaded with chicken and pepper jack cheese. They are super quick and easy to make and are one of my favorite Tex-mex dinners for busy weeknights!…

Even with times as they are, the world keeps on turning and life continues! It seemed like the world slowed down there for a while, but now it feels like the pace of life and living is picking back up again. With the new school year and new way of schooling hot on our heels, I thought it would be a great time to start planning meals that are quick, easy, and made with just a handful of kitchen staples.

I’ve made strata before, but this one is super simple. All you need is 6 ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time. The fridge and the oven do everything else in between! This Easy Cheesy Spinach Strata can be put together ahead of time and then tossed into the oven to bake when you are ready to enjoy it. Plus, it’s one of those meals that’s good for any time of day; breakfast, lunch, or dinner!…

Chicken Parmesan Lasagna

August 5, 2020 Amanda Plott

Almost everyone loves a good lasagna. It’s hard not to. Noodles, sauce, cheese… it’s a heavenly mixture. Today I decided to take it step further and turn a regular lasagna into one that’s chicken based! No, no… not alfredo. Chicken parmesan style!

Chicken parmesan is another Italian-American favorite. Breaded chicken, sauce, and cheese. Who says lasagna has to be sausage? With ground chicken used instead, and the addition of some bread crumbs for crunchy texture, this lasagna is the perfect blend of two classics…
