Naked 'Tortilla Trend' Club Sandwich

February 27, 2022 Amanda Plott

We’ve all seen that new tortilla trend that’s been going around, but sometimes a girl just wants to get a little naked. I’ve stripped the tortilla out of this all together and went with a large lettuce leaf instead. This makes this trend low carb, gluten free, and still every bit as delicious. It still has all the naughty bits, mainly the cheese and the bacon!

Another great thing about this is it’s perfect for making ahead and having on hand as an easy grab-and-go lunch for the week ahead. Just make them and store them in the fridge as a meal prep lunch that anyone can enjoy guilt free…

Skinny Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole

February 12, 2022 Amanda Plott

Breakfast is served! This Skinny Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole is quick and easy to make with no usual overnight sitting required. Plus, it’s low carb and keto friendly. Did I mention that it’s loaded with plenty of bacon and cheese too? Yep! This casserole is definitely a new breakfast favorite. From what I made this morning, I’ll have plenty leftover for a few more breakfast for myself this week!

I even managed to sneak in some veggies by way of peppers and onions. It’s good stuff I tell you. For this particular breakfast casserole, I went with a standard maple bacon, but really any bacon would work. I also went with a mix of low fat cheddar and a Carolina reaper cheddar to give some pep to this breakfast…

Inside-Out Truffalo Breakfast Burrito

January 19, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s going to be a busy day as I prepare for the possible in climate weather that is supposed to be sliding in this evening. So, I went out on my walk and then came in and made myself this Inside-Out Truffalo Breakfast Burrito. I’ve made an inside-out burrito before, but it wasn’t quite like this. What’s truffalo? It’s a delightful mix of truffle and spicy buffalo flavors!

The first time I heard about truffalo was at a chicken wing joint and after that I set out on a mission to find a sauce that was similar - tada! I found it. It’s pretty good too. I took this breakfast burrito a step further though and included a spicy buffalo seasoning AND truffle salt…

Jalapeno Popper Egg Bites (Instant Pot)

November 13, 2021 Amanda Plott

It’s been a while since I made some faux sous vide egg bites in the pressure cooker, so I thought this weekend would be the perfect time to make some! Being as I have made so many different kinds before, I thought I’d really step outside the box to make some spicy jalapeño popper egg bites this time instead. After all, there’s nothing like a little spice to kick off your day.

These egg bites aren’t your petite little dainty ones like you buy at that popular coffee chain either. No, no. These are bigger and better. One of them is about the size of two of the ones you can buy. So one batch will be enough for breakfast all week…

Antipasto Eyeballs

October 7, 2021 Amanda Plott

Sometimes you just need a spooky little side dish or appetizer to really make your day. It’s been a rather rough few weeks between pom poms and covid running rampant through my house; infecting everyone even me. Thankfully, the vaccine left me with a really mild case and just a handful of minor symptoms. Now that everyone is on the mend, we can move along with Halloween preparation!

I’m calling this tasty treat ‘Antipasto Eyeballs’ because they look exactly like that. Fresh mozzarella, olives, and some prosciutto is all you need to make this funny little appetizer. Yep, that’s right - just three ingredients and a few minutes of time…

Bacon Queso Baked Pumpkin

September 30, 2021 Amanda Plott

Look. I don’t know. I have a problem with queso. It’s just the perfect and most ultimate food in my personal opinion. And this Bacon Queso Baked Pumpkin is Fall perfection. It’s as easy as taking a small pumpkin, hollowing it out, and backing your queso inside it for a fun and festive way to get your queso on.

And… everything in moderation, right? This Bacon Queso Baked Pumpkin is the most amazing way to save queso in the Fall season. It’s visually appealing, and I mean… how do you even go wrong with queso anyway? If it’s wrong, I don’t want to be right…
