Skinny Jalapeño Popper Deviled Eggs

December 16, 2018 Amanda Plott

Last weekend when my family and I made the 3 hour round-trip out of the way just for a coffee cake, we had the delight of meeting the woman behind said amazing coffee cakes after several years of ordering from her. She was the SWEETEST lady ever and as we were picking up our cakes from her home, she was in the middle of cooking what she called ‘wash day’ dinner.

So what is wash day dinner? Well, it’s a simple old-fashioned southern inspired meal that they used to cook on… you guessed it, wash day! Usually it’s a pot of beans, cornbread, a cobbler, and some deviled eggs. A perfect meal for a cool almost winter day!…

I’ve been in Egg Bite mode for a while now. Can you tell?

Breakfast is honestly my favorite meal of the day, and it probably always has been. That’s because it’s really the only meal of the day that you can experiment with eating sweet or savory. And just like with eating sweet and savory, I also like to experiment with eating less meat and more vegetarian options!

It’s not secret that we eat at least half of our meals in my house as vegetarian. YES, that includes all meals too. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner alike. I know that Vegetarian Chorizo Egg Bites might sound like an oxymoron here, but I promise you these egg bites are delicious and full of chorizo flavor…

Pesto & Sun-Dried Tomato Crustless Quiche

November 25, 2018 Amanda Plott

When in doubt… make a quiche!

This morning I woke up to a rather quiet house after FINALLY managing to get a decent bit of sleep last night. The excitement around the holidays, along with all the coming and going from my house, usually means several restless nights for me. Now with Turkey Day out of the way, I’m ready to get back into a routine for a few weeks.

My fridge once again has space in it and leftovers have all cleared out but now. With a few extra hungry mouths this morning, I started to panic as I rummaged through the pantry, fridge, and freezer for something breakfasty. FAIL. All I had was pieces and parts. Leftover pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, eggs, bacon, cheese… hah! These are the makings for a great quiche!…

Denver Omelette Egg Bites

November 23, 2018 Amanda Plott

It’s been a good long time since I posted an ‘egg bite’ recipe, so I figured it was about due again by now. If you don’t know what egg bites at this point, you definitely should. Egg bites were made rather famous by the coffee giant Starbucks. I’ve made a few different recipe variations.

They’re one of my most favorite breakfast (or brunch) options. Easy to make, delicious, and completely versatile! Today though, I had Denver omelettes on my mind. What’s in a Denver omelette though? Onions, bell peppers, mushrooms and ham…

Egg Roll Soup

If you like egg rolls, and you like soup, then this is the soup for you! Remember a while back when I made that Egg Roll Bowl? Well, this is sort of a winter-ized take on that. It’s an egg roll that’s been turned into a soup!

Yes, all the flavors and components of a good egg roll are here in this soup; including onions, cabbage, carrots, and meat. Even though I made my last egg roll recipe with chicken, I decided to go with turkey this time around. This was for no other reason than texture. It’s low-carb, gluten-free, and ridiculously easy to make all in one pot…

One-Pot Cheesy Pumpkin & Sausage Soup

November 15, 2018 Amanda Plott

Right now, it’s all about the upcoming holidays and the mad rush and hubbub that surrounds them. There’s probably not any more of a chaotic time of year than there is starting now. Meal planning can be tough at this time of year which is why I like to stick to simple recipes and one-pot dishes. To me, creating one-pot meals during the holiday season feels like a true hack! I almost feel like I’m cheating because it makes clean up so easy.

One-pot means less clean up. One-pot means less hassle. One-pot means more time and sanity saved. And this One-Pot Cheesy Pumpkin & Sausage Soup really hits the spot, too. It is so good it will bring friends and family running to your house and to the table! It’s low-carb, keto-friendly, completely delicious, and as cheesy as soups come. Plus, it’s full of all those glorious fall and winter flavors that we all love and crave at this time of year…
