Rice Paper Veggie Pancakes

January 6, 2026 Amanda Plott

Who says pancakes have to be sweet and sleepy? Meet Rice Paper Veggie Pancakes: crisp, light, wildly delicious, and filled with a colorful jumble of veggies. They’re the kind of snack that makes your lunchbox feel cheeky and your body quietly grateful. Gluten-free? Yes. Grain-free? Sometimes. Guilt-free? Absolutely. Delicious? Duh.

Why rice paper? Rice paper wrappers (the kind used for summer rolls) are thin, crisp up beautifully in a skillet, and provide a neutral canvas for bold fillings. Unlike batter-based pancakes, these are mostly veg with just a smidge of binder so the focus stays on texture — crunchy edges, tender centers, and an almost sneaky amount of satisfaction…

Girl Dinner / Grazing Board

December 30, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you’ve spent even five minutes on social media in the last few years, you’ve likely encountered the “girl dinner” — a delightfully chaotic, no-rules meal built from snacks, fridge finds, and whatever satisfied contemporary cravings. It’s casual, creative, and unapologetically joyful. Now imagine capturing that energy in a grazing board: an easy, customizable platter you can assemble in minutes that looks gorgeous, eats even better, and stays true to The Skinny Fork promise — tasty with a health-conscious twist…

December 13, 2025 Amanda Plott

There’s a reason bread and oil have been flirting across tables and tapas plates for centuries: when done right, a drizzle of good oil and the right seasonings turns a humble chunk of bread into pure comfort. Italian bread dipping oil is the fastest route from “just bread” to “this is therapy.”

It’s simple, customizable, and — good news for the health-conscious — totally compatible with clean-eating goals when you choose the right ingredients. Here’s how to make a standout dipping oil and why it deserves a spot on your appetizer rotation…

No Bake Peanut Butter & Blueberry Oat Bars

December 7, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you think dessert has to be complicated, loud, or require the oven to audition for a spot on a reality show, think again. These No-Bake Peanut Butter & Blueberry Oat Bars are everything you want in a snack: chewy, slightly crunchy, subtly sweet, and packed with real ingredients that do good things for your body. They’ve got the nostalgic peanut-butter-and-jelly vibes with a modern, health-conscious twist—no baking, and zero guilt.

Why you’ll love them

  • Fast: Ready in about 20 minutes with a short chill time.

  • Nourishing: Rolled oats, nut butter, and chia seeds lend fiber, protein, and healthy fats.

  • Flexible: Use fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried blueberries (each gives slightly different texture and flavor).

  • Kid-friendly: Sweet but not cloying—perfect for lunchboxes or after-school fuel.

  • Pantry-friendly: Minimal ingredients, many of which you probably already have…
