Skinny Bacon Cheeseburger Dip

January 13, 2019 Amanda Plott

Gameday, gameday, gameday - oh my! The big gameday is just around the corner and honestly… I can’t wait! Not that I really follow or watch football a whole damn lot. But, I still enjoy THE BIG ONE and all of the fun gameday food that comes along with it. The commercials and halftime performance don’t hurt either.

It’s about this time every year that I start to go through and put together at least a few fun new gameday recipes. And this Skinny Bacon Cheeseburger Dip is topping the charts. Now, I know what you might be thinking… Cheeseburger as a dip? Well, why the hell not?…

5 Ingredient Peanut Butter Granola

January 11, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’m telling y’all. I’m still working on my breakfast game. Sometimes a girl just wants something savory. And sometimes… it’s the sweets being craved. Today I was craving a little bit of both. Something sweet. Something salty. And definitely something crunchy! That’s where this easy-peasy 5 Ingredient Peanut Butter Granola comes in!

With just 5 ingredients and 5 minutes or hands on time, you too can have this delish granola in your life. And why not? Granola can be expensive and full of things you don’t like, don’t want, and/or don’t care about. Not this granola.

Skinny Three Layer Confetti Dip

January 7, 2019 Amanda Plott

With Super Bowl just around the corner, it’s high time to start getting down with those gamely inspired recipes! Gameday food is some of the BEST food. But, when you’re trying to stick to your New Year’s resolutions, it can be a challenge to find a balance between the two! Being as I’m a huge fan of a decent gameday spread, I know exactly what to do.

As part of my New Year’s resolutions, I’m choosing to eat a lot more veggies. Fresh veggies. That’s why I decided to make this DELICIOUS and nutritious triple layer dip. It’s three layers of yummy stuff that you and I both can feel good about serving and enjoying!…

Vegan Black-Eyed Pea Salad

January 3, 2019 Amanda Plott

Who the hell ever said that black-eyed peas had to just be a New Year’s day thing? Yes, I’m deliberately posting this recipe AFTER the first of the year to be a bit of a rebel.

Every year in my house, it’s the same old debate. What do we do with black-eyed peas to make them more edible. Let’s face it, black-eyed peas earned their nickname ‘dirt peas’ for a reason. Over the years, I’d like to think that I’ve come up with a few clever ways.

This year though, with a cold running rampant through the house… something FRESH and light sounded like what we all needed…

Dark Chocolate Covered Rosé Soaked Strawberries

With New Year’s Even just around the corner, I was thinking there would be no better time than now to make some Rosé soaked strawberries. By why stop there? I decided the best thing to do was to cover those things in some dark chocolate!

This is how adults do ‘jello shots’ right?

I like to think that it’s a more elegant way to indulge anyway!…

Skinny Hot Cocoa Cookies

December 20, 2018 Amanda Plott

Cookies are in season right now, and these Skinny Hot Cocoa Cookies are where it’s at! Their a cocoa flavored chocolate cookie base that’s loaded up with plenty of white chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, and YES even marshmallows. It’s basically like eating a mug of hot cocoa… if you eat them warm and fresh out of the oven especially!

Even with the naughty bits that are in here, these cookies are sill just over 100 calories each. And what’s better, is that they are actually pretty easy to make! Sometimes cookies can be overly complicated and involved. Not these baddies…
