Skinny Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls

February 5, 2018 Amanda Plott

Can you believe that it's been almost 5 years since I started The Skinny Fork? How exciting! 5 years can make such a big difference. I look back at old recipes when I make them again and often end up retaking the photos. With these Skinny Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls being one of my favorites, I thought I would go back and blow the dust off and give it a bit of a facelift. As usual, the recipe is the same, though I did add pressure cooker instructions! Here's the original as written!

I've been going about this all wrong.

I've made buffalo chicken egg rolls about a million times now. And this past week when I was buying some egg roll wrappers, they were all sold out. Of course. Desperate, I asked one of the clerks who mentioned there were some other options in the frozen section...

Low-Carb Chicken 'Nachos' (Keto-Friendly)

February 3, 2018 Amanda Plott

With the Big Game coming up tomorrow I thought I needed to get another good game day recipe out. These Low-Carb Chicken 'Nachos' have been something that I've been working on for a month or two now, trying to get the spice level right and the cooking method down perfectly.

These Chicken 'Nachos' are really more of Chicken 'Not-Chos' since there is no chip involved here. Instead, the entire nacho is based on the pieces of chicken themselves. To pack in as much flavor as possible, I started these off with seasoning. A LOT of seasoning too. Let's face it, chicken breast can be a little moot. So, I wanted to be sure it had all the help that it could get here...

Healthified Chili Con Carne

Even though I originally made this recipe back in 2014 - I thought after we made it this past weekend that it needed an update! The recipe is the same-same, only updated instructions, and images.

So, here's the original post as it was:

My mom has this infamous chili recipe that she's made for many years now. It's something that the whole family can agree on. We all love it. It always became a staple in the family's weekly meal plan during the cooler winter months.

I've wanted to post the recipe for a long while now, well pretty much ever since I started all this... but, it just never came to be for one reason or another. In fact, I never even had the recipe in my hot little hand until about a week ago...

Low-Carb 'Armadillo Eggs' (Sponsored)

Just because the holidays are over doesn't mean that the entertaining has stopped. At least, that's how it is around my place. I like to think of my house as the central hub. The neutral territory. THE place to be. At least once a week there is something going on and I've got a house full of people.

My daughter and I are usually outnumbered by the boys too. Even when my mom comes to visit, if you're counting the animals, we're still outnumbered by at least 2 to 1. So more often than not, when there are people over, I like to stick to food that I know the menfolk will enjoy while also trying to keep my womanly figure. That's where these Armadillo Eggs come in...

Chunky Monkey Trail Mix

January 12, 2018 Amanda Plott

I've been on a bit of a nut kick lately. I blame the granola that's been made and the fact that I'm trying to get a lot more healthy fats in my life right now. This. This right here? This is some magical stuff, I tell you. And a total nod to my childhood as well.

As a child (ahem and adult) I've loved ice cream. I mean... who doesn't? Two of my families favorites were Chubby Hubby and Chunky Monkey. The Chunky Monkey flavor is a banana ice cream base with pieces of chocolate and walnuts all through it. So, being as I'm so nutty right now... I figured I'd take those flavors that I loved and turn them into a snack trail mix!...

Being a mom during the holidays isn’t just busy… it’s STRESSFUL. Somewhere between all the shopping, cooking, and party planning, the magic of the Holidays can be lost. No one wants to have a blue Christmas. That's why I've brightened things up and made the holidays fun again with this Spiked Lemon Pepper Chicken Salad.

This chicken salad is bright, bold and full of flavor. It makes a great grab-and-go snack or part of a meal during this busy time of year and is even better as a holiday party appetizer. It's an easy, quick-to-toss-together, nosh-worthy bite...
