'Brain' Deviled Eggs

October 16, 2020 Amanda Plott

These deviled eggs are all dressed up for Halloween and ready to go with some pink hue to the filling and a fun little design on top that makes them look like mini brain bites. They’re lightened up, keto friendly, low carb, vegetarian, and gluten-free too! Which makes them even more fun for your Halloween eats and treats this year.

I finished them off with a light dusting of paprika to give just a little more of that creepy 'Halloween ‘brain’ feel. Other than that, these are very standard deviled eggs. Just, you know, guilt-free!…

Individual Pizza Pot Pies

October 4, 2020 Amanda Plott

Yep! Pizza in the form of a pot pie. Turned upside down into a delicious individual bowl of pizza goodness. This pizza pot pie makes it’s very own pizza crust bread bowl that is perfect for a single serving of cheesy sauce ‘deep dish’ style pizza!

The best part is that you can alter each individual pizza to have your own favorite toppings. I left the main part of these as ‘cheese pizza’ so that you can customize and add your other pizza topping favorites. I added pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, and jalapeños to mine…

Double Chocolate Pumpkin Bread

September 26, 2020 Amanda Plott

I’ve been in bread mode lately for breakfast, if you couldn’t tell. And with the influx of cooler weather and it officially being Fall now, of course I had to get with baking up some chocolate pumpkin bread. Not just that though. DOUBLE chocolate pumpkin bread. This tasty breakfast treat is as rich as it comes and sooo decadent.

The pumpkin and applesauce being in this bread means it’s super moist and you barely need any oil in it at all. I kept it as low as I could with sugar by substituting in one of my favorite swaps, a brown sugar/sweetener blend. You’ll never know the difference in taste either! That one single swap will nearly cut the sugar in half…

Black Burger Buns (Bread Machine)

September 24, 2020 Amanda Plott

Halloween is coming! I’m about to get my Halloween decorations down, the weather is turning cooler, and I couldn’t be more ready for the Fall. The world might be more crazy than ever, but I’m going to enjoy my favorite holiday this year, one way or another. Now… usually around this time of year I’m coming ip with all recipes pumpkin and Halloween inspired. This year? No different!

These Black Burger Buns are fairly easy to make with a bread machine. And their dark color makes them PERFECT for a Halloween inspired burger. I made ‘werewolf’ burgers in that they were mostly just neat colors that made me think of werewolves; black, purples, deep reds, etc…

Skinny 'Starbucks' Pumpkin Scones

September 21, 2020 Amanda Plott

Once more, I am forced to say... 'I'm sorry' and... 'you're welcome' in the same sentence.

Who says 'you can't have your cake and eat it too?' Not this girl.

If you haven't noticed yet... I am all about sweets and treats. Eatings skinny and healthy doesn't mean things can't be fun or enjoyed!...

Skinny Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Rolls

September 9, 2020 Amanda Plott

I clearly have an issue with cinnamon rolls... They are a weak point for me. Always have been, and always will be.

I've attempted to make cinnamon rolls without cake mix, but honestly, the come out so much more soft and fluffy with the addition. Plus, it allows for you to have some fun with all the flavors of cake mix that are offered! ...

One of my fall favorites is spice cake. And what better to use as a base for some pumpkin spice cinnamon rolls?
