Skinny Baked Bacon Cheeseburger Egg Rolls

September 23, 2013 Amanda Plott

This is exactly the sort of fun thing that happens when I cook from my pantry.

I make a set meal plan every week for breakfast, lunch, and dinners. But somehow... by the end of the week, plans have inevitably changed. After a few weeks I end up with a handful of odds and ends from meals that either never happened or were converted into something else for whatever reason.

At any rate, I had a full pound of burger meat in my freezer that needed to have something done with it, and no buns. I also had some egg roll wrappers that I had intended for another use, but somehow managed to remain sitting in my fridge.  I also had two lonely slices of cooked reduced sodium bacon sitting aside as leftovers from breakfast.

What's a girl to do...?...

Skinny Chicken & Pumpkin Gnocchi Soup

September 20, 2013 Amanda Plott

It is raining here! Thank you Fall!

Nothing could have hit the spot better at lunch time than a nice warm bowl of one of my all time favorite soups.  It's a take-out fake-out sort of day...

I think the very first time I had gnocchi soup was at The Olive Garden. To make this soup I basically used a copy-cat recipe for the infamous one served up at the italian chain...

Red Wine Beef Stew

September 14, 2013 Amanda Plott

When I was growing up, it was all about my mom's infamous beef pot roast. I can't ever recall us having any beef stew though.  When I asked her why she never made it, she said it was 'just something she wasn't too fond of'.

Well, I've managed to change her mind with this recipe. 

My picky brother even gave me a thumbs-up for this stew! And... I think I only got a thumbs-up because he was busy stuffing his face with the other hand...

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...

Skinny Pumpkin Breakfast Parfait

September 2, 2013 Amanda Plott

It's cooling off a bit!

Okay... not really. Maybe a degree or two. And that could even just be in my head.

Even so, I wanted to continue indulging with fall-friendly recipes while keeping cool in these 99 degree days of early September...
