Everything Chicken & Green Onion Cream Cheese Sauce

May 2, 2020 Amanda Plott

Okay, so I’ve been trying to circulate this Everything Chicken here for a few months now. For whatever reason the day, time, lighting, etc has never lined up to allow me to do so. Today, I set myself a goal specifically to make this chicken and get this recipe in your hot little hands. Finally.

This Everything Chicken & Green Onion Cream Cheese Sauce is to-die-for. It’s one of the most simple chicken recipes to make, looks high end, and tastes absolutely amazing. Everyone who has tried it, has loved it. So much so, that it’s basically in the standard rotation here at my house…

Healthified Restaurant Style Salsa

This is an old one, but a good one. This Blender Salsa is tried and true and was one of the very first recipes that I ever posted here way back in 2013! It’s been a good long time since I made this salsa, and being as I managed to get my hands on a bunch of canned tomatoes… and a lot of us are surviving on pantry staples, I thought there was no better time than now to make this Healthified Restaurant Style Salsa again.

Originally I came up with this Healthified Restaurant Style Salsa for a family member who wanted one similar to what you’ll find at a chain restaurant that’s known for it’s peppery name…

Beef Fajita Crustless Quiche

March 24, 2020 Amanda Plott

As of midnight tonight, we here in Austin (and surrounding areas) are on official lock down with a ‘shelter in place’ until April 13th. This comes after being under a quarantine mandate for a week or so as well. Being as times are tough for everyone, I’m trying to be super creative in how I use up leftovers and the few pantry staples that I have been able to get my hands on.

Being as we had beef fajitas a few nights ago, I had some leftover cooked beef and peppers and onions. So I thought I’d use them up in a quiche because when growing up, quiche was one of the few ways that my family would repurpose leftovers. It’s simple, easy, and delicious every time…

Everything Chicken Salad

March 19, 2020 Amanda Plott

It’s a wide world of crazy out there right now. Things are being shut down left and right and groceries are scarce at this point to say the least. Until things return to normal, I’m doing my part in staying around home and coming up with simple, easy to make recipes that can hopefully be made with just a few staple pantry ingredients that everyone should have on hand.

This Everything Chicken Salad is one such recipe! Chicken salad is pretty much a fail-safe bite that’s full of protein, easy to make, and fairly versatile as it can be used as a dip, spread, or stand-alone. Being as I always always have ‘everything seasoning’ on hand, I thought I could put the two together!…

Irish Pub Skewers

March 1, 2020 Amanda Plott

It’s the first day of March and St. Patrick’s Day is coming up quickly! These Irish Pub Skewers are super simple and easy to make. In this house, we love finger foods, and these small bites with an Irish nod to them are perfect for entertaining around St. Patrick’s Day.

These little bites start out with a piece of corned beef and are put together with some Irish cheddar, a pickle, and some Brussel sprouts to end it. They are great for dipping and dunking into a mustard or even thousand island style of dressing…

Reuben Salad + Homemade Thousand Island Dressing

February 15, 2020 Amanda Plott

Now that Valentine’s day is over, we can move onto the next holiday on the list. St. Patrick’s Day! I say it every year, St. Patrick’s Day is one of my top three holidays. Partly because I’m Irish and partly because it’s my dad’s birthday! Being as my little one strangely loves corned beef, I decided to make some WELL ahead of time, and honestly I’m not sure why I don’t make it more often through the year.

I decided to use up the leftover corned beef to make this Reuben inspired salad. It has all the makings of a reuben sandwich in the form of a salad. Making it a perfect low carb, keto friendly and gluten free way to enjoy a reuben!…
