Crispy Kale Chips

January 4, 2014 Amanda Plott

I'll readily admit that I am generally not a fan of kale. I don't like it in my soup, especially.

Zuppa Toscana and Olive Garden? Please, no.

It's not the flavor of kale that I don't find pleasant... it's the... way it holds it's form and something about the texture of the 'curly' ends.

I much prefer my spinach. I love my spinach. Raw. Cooked. Sauted. In soup. As a salad. It doesn't matter.

I keep hearing and seeing things about kale chips. Supposedly you could do the same thing with spinach. Perfect! Well... not so perfect. Unfortunately, when I tried 'spinach chips' a few months back... it didn't fair too well. As we all know, spinach is good at wilting under heat. And while it tasted good, it was not something that you could readily snack on. It just... flakes into nothingness. Sad Face....

Crock Pot Guinness French Onion Soup & Irish Cheddar Crouton

December 28, 2013 Amanda Plott

I spent the day revising this recipe after I had some similar comments regarding the amount of vinegar and beer being too harsh for some. I think everyone will enjoy the new final copy even more than the previous one!

I've kept the same basic recipe with a few minor adjustments and fine-tuning... since I don't want anyone to be displeased with anything they try here (within reason of course.)

Hello, gorgeous... mmm... melted irish cheddar...

Chia Fresca

December 26, 2013 Amanda Plott

After my little experiment with Spa Water, I wanted to try something else out. While I enjoy the Spa Water... I wanted something that I could toss together quickly in the morning, and that perhaps appealed further to my senses with some fruit.

I had remembered seeing something about adding chia seeds to water as a drink a while back and knew that I had some stored away in my pantry...

Thick & Hearty Pizza Sauce

December 21, 2013 Amanda Plott

Mm... this sauce is thick, rich, and very hearty with bold pieces of sautéed onion and garlic littered through it. It's absolutely perfect for dipping, but would be just as amazing atop some 3 Ingredient Pizza Dough, or in any other place that you would use a typical pizza sauce...

I'm busy getting my body back to health this week after over a month of being sick with one thing after the other. If there's anything that can help give the much needed health boost to my system, it's this salad.

There's so many good things in this salad that I can hardly stand it!...

Pomegranate Avocado

November 29, 2013 Amanda Plott

Think avocados are only something to enjoy in the summer? Hah! Think again.

These lovely pomegranate avocados make for a wonderful winter snack or even a perfectly fun and beautifully colored side dish.

That isn't to mention that these are so super easy to pull together and the bright and merry colors are more than impressive!...
