Skinny Loaded Twice Baked Potatoes

November 5, 2013 Amanda Plott

Yes. Skinny and loaded.

Alright, so let me just tell you a fun little story about these potatoes...

I've made them a hand full of times before. One particular time, my collegiate Longhorn of a brother was over for dinner. He is one  of the more picky eaters in the family. And he quickly gobbled down a huge serving... followed by a second.

He had no idea that these loaded spuds were full of another sneaky veggie... cauliflower!  Muahahaha! That's my 'evil' cackle...

Healthy Fall Salad

October 30, 2013 Amanda Plott

There are all sorts of spring and summer salads out there... but why not enjoy a salad in the fall or winter months? 

Instead of working off the winter weight after the fact, just kick it in the pants ahead of time.

This salad is exploding with flavors of fall with baby spinach, bleu cheese, cranberries, pear, and even some pumpkin kernels!

Butternut Squash Faux Fries

September 11, 2013 Amanda Plott

These baked Butternut Squash Faux Fries are an amazing alternative to their potato brethren. They taste just as amazing as sweet potato fries, and are remarkably similar, but come in way less on their calorie count!

Not to say anything bad  about zucchini, but the health benefits of winter squash far exceeds that of their summer time family. The butternut squash is high in fiber and low in fat, making it a very heart-healthy choice.

This fruit  is full of potassium, B6, folate, and last but not least carotenoids! A 1-cup serving will give you nearly half the recommended daily dose of antioxidant-rich vitamin C. And what's more? It's an anti-inflamitory as well...

Fiesta Pasta Salad & Green Chile Lime Vinaigrette

June 18, 2013 Amanda Plott

This is ridiculously delicious. And it takes little to no time at all to prepare!

I wanted something cold, light, and veggieful to help combat the heat of the summer after a weekend impromptu tubing adventure down the Comal river with my parents and three year old little lady...

Skinny Hawaiian Slaw

May 14, 2013 Amanda Plott

​This slaw tastes every bit as amazing, bright, and fun as it looks.

Don't let the pineapple throw you.​ Not for even a second.

What a perfect side dish to any Hawaiian, tropical, or asian inspired meal. And super easy and fast to toss together too!​

​When mixing this up earlier today, I totally found myself takes bites out of the bowl and looking for reasons to taste test. Over and over again...
