Game day food is so important in my family, it's always been a big part of our traditions. In fact, cooking on game day was so important that when I was younger we even had a television set up on top of the fridge so that those preparing food could multi-task and watch the game at the same time!

One of the most famous game day eats in our house has always been jalapeño poppers. My dad makes some of the best, next to my own of course. Hah! But, I'm also a big BIG fan of dips and spreads! So, today I've decided to combine the two into one amazing lighter version of a jalapeño popper dip...

Morning Detox Honey Lemon Peppermint Water

February 20, 2015 Amanda Plott

I've heard a lot over the past year about the health benefits of drinking honey lemon water in the morning. So, a few months back I decided to begin testing this theory. But, instead of using plain-jane lemons and honey, I wanted to make an upgrade.

For a long while now, I've been taking a more therapeutic and wholesome approach to my chronic neck/shoulder pain, massive headaches, and debilitating ocular migraines. I've been dabbling with DoTerra Essential Oils quite a bit to help with common household illness, pain, mood, and even with my cooking! I figured that my essential oils would be a great addition or substitution to my new-found morning drink...

Alright everyone - here it is... Week six of the 'Get Forking Skinny Meal Plan'!

I'm pretty sure that I have everything listed accurately on the shopping list, but if you feel that you find an error just let me know! Again, it's a learning process.

Just a friendly reminder, I've created the shopping list with the notion that you have basic spices and pantry/kitchen staples on hand. So, you'll want to double check the recipes and the shopping list to be sure that you have everything you need...

What can I say? I have a four year old, and one thing that I've always got plenty of is Goldfish snacks! I think I have a pantry full of nearly every flavor that's offered. Some sweet. Some savory. All delicious. I'm always trying to come up with fun and playful things to do with the tasty little snacks that we all know and love. Today, I'm thinking way outside the box (and the bag) though.

With spring fast approaching I knew that I wanted to create something light, sweet, rather guilt-free, and easy enough that it could be done while chasing around the kiddos or even make use of some helping little hands. This rich and creamy Skinny Peanut Butter Cheesecake was the perfect solution! I'm sure you're wondering by now... why I'm talking about a cheesecake rather than some sort of trail mix. Well, the answer is simple. The Goldfish pretzels are what makes up the crust of this decadent beauty!...

Skinny Chicken Caesar Wrap (Crock Pot)

January 19, 2015 Amanda Plott

I feel like I should start off by saying that I am usually anything but a caesar dressing fan. I would probably east just about any other sort of salad before I would even consider a caesar salad. I honestly can't say why either. I'm not sure if it's a texture issue, a taste issue, or if I'm just plain weird.

I'm thinking it's the the latter of the two.

I am also not a very big wrap fan. I suppose I'd rather eat a sandwich or a salad rather than the combination of the two. It must be a mental notion that the only things that belongs in tortillas are breakfast tacos and fajitas.

No matter the reason, I think I just changed my own mind with stepping outside of the box with these wonderful chicken caesar wraps...
