Skinny Chicken Alfredo Dip

October 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

It was a lazy and rainy day yesterday, and after a long 'Fall break’ weekend that was filled with plenty of fun and excitement, it was a good day to rest. I’m honestly not sure I even got out of my pajamas, and neither did my daughter. Yep, that’s just how lazy we were. This Skinny Chicken Alfredo Dip was a perfect rainy day snacky sort of dinner.

Like I said, we were being uber lazy. So cheesy chicken dip for dinner just sounded like it fit. No guilt here though! This Alfredo dip is just about as guilt-free as an Alfredo anything can be. It’s low-carb, delicious, and actually surprisingly easy to make - even from scratch!…

Skinny Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Dip

September 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

Sometimes, you just feel like having snacks and appetizer style things for dinner. Or maybe that's just me and my family? This weekend has been a rainy one, and I'm not about to complain about that. We've been needing the rain and the cool off from the blaring Texas sun. Even so! With being stuck indoors and games and movies being the fun of the weekend, I thought it would be perfect for an appetizer night.

For whatever reason, rain always leaves me craving Mexican food. Namely enchiladas. That's why I went with this Skinny Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Dip as part of our rainy day spread. This dip tastes just like those famous cream cheese chiclen enchladas that we all know and love. The only difference is that this dip is guilt-free!

Healthified Cobb Egg Salad

August 25, 2018 Amanda Plott

It's been a busy week and so far an even busier weekend! My daughter started school back up and we had just managed to climb off the plane from Hawaii in time to do so. So among the jet lag and getting back into the routine of things I was in dire need of quick and easy lunch options.

This Healthified Cobb Egg Salad really hits the spot. It's a fun new twist on one of my favorites, egg salad! Egg salad is always a great snack or lunch option. It's low-carb, easy to make, full of protein and can be delicious when paired with even the most simple of scoopables such as crackers and celery!…

Skinny Cream Cheese Rangoon Dip & Wonton Chips

July 20, 2018 Amanda Plott

I keep saying that I'm swearing off my stove and oven right now, and then the very next day I'm firing one, or both of them, up again cook some yummies. And so far lately, all the yummies have been worth heating the house up over. And this Skinny Cream Cheese Rangoon Dip with Wonton Chips inso different. I may even do the very same thing again tonight!

So first thing first. I love cream cheese rangoons. I've made them a few times, and... I could probably eat my weight in them with no questions asked. That being said, I'm all about putting a twist on the things I love. I guess that's why I decided to turn cream cheese rangoons into a dip!…

Low-Carb Copycat 'Chili's Queso'

June 21, 2018 Amanda Plott

Oooooh, yes I did.

I've said it before... and I'll say it a million more times. Cheese and/or queso are my biggest weak points. I will legit do almost anything for a good cheese or queso. And one of my all time favorite guilty-pleasure quesos? Yep. The one at Chili's.

Now, their queso isn't like a traditional tex-mex queso. It's more of a chili cheese dip actually. Which, obviously I'm totally down with since it's one of my faves. Again... it's cheese. So, yes. Please, get in my mouth hole. The one thing in which you may notice about their queso is that it's clearly made using their house chili, sans beans. After a bit of plugging around a few copycat recipes, I've finally put my more 'healthy' spin on a proper knock-off…

Low-Carb Farmer's Market Queso

Dear queso... Let me count the ways that I love thee...

Queso has been my Achilles' heel for years now. Melted cheesy goodness. I mean... who can pass it up? Well, not this girl! I'm always looking for ways to make my queso feel a little less guilty though. And maybe not just feel less guilty, but to actually be less guilty.

While this queso, and any proper queso, isn't exactly light. I can say that this queso is low-carb and absolutely loaded with veggies. Which, you know, makes anyone feel a bit better about what they're eating. Right? Right!…
