Skinny Pink Sauce (Yes, that one.)

January 18, 2026 Amanda Plott

Move over heavy, mayo-thick pink sauces—there’s a new condiment in town that’s all about the flavor without the food coma. Meet my Skinny version of the Pink Sauce: a tangy, slightly sweet, vibrantly hued sauce that gives you all the creamy comfort you love, but with a health-conscious spin. Think dreamy pasta sauces, dunkable veggies, and grilled proteins that taste decadent without derailing your goals. Here’s everything you need to know and how to use it…

Rice Paper Veggie Pancakes

January 6, 2026 Amanda Plott

Who says pancakes have to be sweet and sleepy? Meet Rice Paper Veggie Pancakes: crisp, light, wildly delicious, and filled with a colorful jumble of veggies. They’re the kind of snack that makes your lunchbox feel cheeky and your body quietly grateful. Gluten-free? Yes. Grain-free? Sometimes. Guilt-free? Absolutely. Delicious? Duh.

Why rice paper? Rice paper wrappers (the kind used for summer rolls) are thin, crisp up beautifully in a skillet, and provide a neutral canvas for bold fillings. Unlike batter-based pancakes, these are mostly veg with just a smidge of binder so the focus stays on texture — crunchy edges, tender centers, and an almost sneaky amount of satisfaction…

Girl Dinner / Grazing Board

December 30, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you’ve spent even five minutes on social media in the last few years, you’ve likely encountered the “girl dinner” — a delightfully chaotic, no-rules meal built from snacks, fridge finds, and whatever satisfied contemporary cravings. It’s casual, creative, and unapologetically joyful. Now imagine capturing that energy in a grazing board: an easy, customizable platter you can assemble in minutes that looks gorgeous, eats even better, and stays true to The Skinny Fork promise — tasty with a health-conscious twist…

Tahini Honey Butter

December 26, 2025 Amanda Plott

If peanut butter and honey had a cultured, slightly nutty cousin who wore a beret and always brought snacks to the party, it would be tahini honey butter. This spread takes the silky, sesame-forward richness of tahini, softens it with butter, and brightens it with honey — creating something that’s creamy, slightly savory, and perfectly sweet. It’s comfort food with a grown-up twist, and it plays well with everything from toast to roast vegetables. Welcome to the simplest upgrade your pantry has seen all year…

Mushroom & Toasted Walnut Salad + Truffle Vinaigrette

December 18, 2025 Amanda Plott

Meet your new favorite side (or main, if you’re feeling fancy and carbo-loading on crusty bread): a mushroom-forward salad that’s earthy, crunchy, and dressed in a truffle vinaigrette so good it will make you whisper “wow” into your napkin. It’s healthy but indulgent — the kind of guilt-free deliciousness we live for. Think meaty mushrooms, crisp greens, toasted walnuts for that addictive snap, and a vinaigrette with just enough truffle personality to steal the show…

Italian Bread Dipping Oil

December 13, 2025 Amanda Plott

There’s a reason bread and oil have been flirting across tables and tapas plates for centuries: when done right, a drizzle of good oil and the right seasonings turns a humble chunk of bread into pure comfort. Italian bread dipping oil is the fastest route from “just bread” to “this is therapy.”

It’s simple, customizable, and — good news for the health-conscious — totally compatible with clean-eating goals when you choose the right ingredients. Here’s how to make a standout dipping oil and why it deserves a spot on your appetizer rotation…
