Overnight Blueberry French Toast Bake

March 31, 2019 Amanda Plott

Sundays are for brunching, and this Sunday is no different. With knowing tomorrow is Monday, and that today was going to be a lazy day for the most part, I decided to go ahead and make breakfast yesterday. Well, what does that mean? It means Overnight Blueberry French Toast Bake, that’s what it means!

This Overnight Blueberry French Toast Bake is made ahead of time and sits overnight in the fridge where the big cubes of hearty bread cans oat up eggs, cream cheese, blueberries and the like. Then in the morning, it’s ready to be baked and enjoyed!…

Healthified Chicken Noodle Casserole

March 25, 2019 Amanda Plott

We’ve got just over two months of school left this year and I have to say… I’m chomping at the bit to get through with it. I’m in survival mode at this point to get through it and into the footloose and fancy-free days of Summer. However, I’m going to enjoy the tepid Spring weather and getting to use my stove while I still can.

With all of that in mind, now is the perfect time for easy-peasy weeknight dinners. And what’s more easy than a casserole? Or chicken noodle anything? This chicken noodle casserole is an ode to those classic casseroles that most of us grew up with and yet don’t see around anymore. I honestly… have no idea why either. Casseroles are the best…

Skinny Pesto & Ricotta Stuffed Shells

Easy-peasy weeknight meals have been the name of the game lately. And for more than one reason too! With my house a little more full than usual, the last two and a half months of school upon us, and birthday season on the horizon… it’s all I can do to stay above water anymore! These Skinny Pesto & Ricotta Stuffed Shells are made with just a handful of ingredients and couldn’t be more easy to make.

Just because they’re simple, doesn’t mean they’re lacking flavor either. Oh-no. Not these shells. As we’re coming into Spring, we’re coming into fresh basil a plenty. My backyard tends to get taken over by basil to the point that I tend to run out of things to do with it. I’m not complaining about that though. Bring on the basil!…

Everyone needs an easy chicken dinner in their back pocket for those busy weeknights, right? This Crunchy Garlic Baked Chicken was one that I picked up years, and years, and years ago. It’s a simple dish that has stood the test of time. Tried and true all the way through.

If you’ve ever had schnitzel, this is soooort of like that. It’s a thin chicken breast that’s coated in flour, egg, and a breadcrumb mixture before being baked to a perfectly crispy and crunchy bite that couldn’t be any more simple…

Why do potatoes get such a bad rap these days? They’re rather low in calories and truly one of the most versatile things out there. I mean… sure, they aren’t the lowest in carbs. But low carbs isn’t always a good thing. Unless that’s just what you or your body need!

For me? As a busy mom. Potatoes have always been a staple. And let me just say that I’ve made my fair share of homemade bakes fries and potatoes of all kinds in the past. There are definitely a few tricks and tips that I’ve picked up a long the way to make for some really stellar potato wedges…

Like I said, when I got my hands on that ‘everything’ seasoning, I instantly made a lot of plans of things to do with it! These 'Everything' Pigs in a Blanket where actually one of the very first things I wanted to make. So, here we go!
