Broccoli & Butternut Squash Omelettata

January 6, 2017 Amanda Plott

Brrrr! It's freezing here in Austin today. No, like... literally it is. I needed an excuse to turn the oven on since that always helps warm the house up and I sure enough found that excuse when trying to figure out what I was going to do with myself for breakfast. I remembered that I had gotten these wonderful farm fresh eggs and local produce yesterday and just knew they would fit the bill.

So, I kicked on my oven and got to work.

I've made an omelettata before, but it's been a while. Almost a year to the day actually! It's pretty funny how things work out sometimes...

Baked Egg & Avocado Bowls

January 2, 2017 Amanda Plott

Drool.

This is an oldie, but a goodie. I originally made these Baked Egg & Avocado Bowls back in 2013! So, to say that the photos needed some updating and the post needed a face-lift would be a bit of an understatement.

I had been wanting to share this recipe ever since I started this blog a whole 5 months before it actually made it into fruition. (That was now nearly 4 years ago! Can you believe it?!) It's super easy, healthy, and yes... tastes every bit amazing as it looks.

Who can say no to a warmed avocado with baked eggs, cheese, and bacon?

Not this girl.

I couldn't 4 years ago, and I still can't today!...

Breakfast Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

November 22, 2016 Amanda Plott

It's just a couple of days before Thanksgiving and I'm running around like a mad woman to get things done. This year we're doing things a bit different... getting the family the heck outta here for some untraditional turkey day glamping (that's camping in a glamorous manner.) I'll be the first to admit that God didn't build me in a manner that would suffice actual 'camping'. I enjoy hot showers, beds, central air, and food far too much to be the outdoorsy type.

Glamping though? Sign. Me. Up!

I got a small cabin in the woods rented out for a couple of days and I am all about this fancy-pants version of camping. Awe-SOME. While I'm getting myself in order and ready to head out on the road, I can't neglect breakfast this week. So, I'm hot on the tails of these AMAZING Breakfast Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms! Seriously. This is one of the best breakfasts I've concocted in a good while...

Skinny Bloody Mary Deviled Eggs

November 14, 2016 Amanda Plott

I'm not sure what it is about this time of year that always gets me thinking about appetizers. Maybe it's all the holidays and parties going on. Of course, I'm always one that's ready to go big or go home; thinking outside of the box and keeping things new and exciting in the world of food. So, here we go!

It's no secret that deviled eggs are one of my favorite appetizers. They're easy, can be elegant or down-home, and are extremely versatile. Plus, who doesn't enjoy finger foods? That being said, you can't go around plain ole' jane ole' deviled eggs. At least, not around me. I'm always trying to think up fun ways to put a twist on this old comfort food classic...

These Eat Smart Gourmet Vegetable Salad Kits are so flexible that they can be turned into almost anything from appetizers, to side dishes, and yes... even breakfast!...

Skinny Buffalo Blue Cheese Deviled Eggs

October 12, 2015 Amanda Plott

This stuff right here is what dreams are made up of. I've a southern girl, so deviled eggs are a staple to any holiday or 'special event'. Instead of the same ole' same ole', I love to play around with different combinations.

My last adventure with deviled eggs was quite a big hit, so I decided to try my hand at it again. This time though, I wanted to make my deviled eggs 'game day friendly'. How do you make something more game-day inspired than to throw buffalo sauce at it and call it a day?

Plus, their orange and white just like the colors of my favorite local college football team. Hook'em!...
