Low-Carb Keto 'Inside-Out' Breakfast Burrito

April 27, 2018 Amanda Plott

I'm trying to get myself back on the exercise bandwagon starting today. (And I'm pretty sure I nearly overdid it already!) Summer is on the way and I'd like to both look and feel my best during swimsuit season. So, to start my morning off right, I decided to make myself this little diddy right here.

This Low-Carb Keto 'Inside-Out' Breakfast Burrito is exactly what it sounds like. A breakfast burrito that uses the eggs as the wrap and is then loaded up with some of the usual suspects; bacon, cheese, pico, and even some turkey! Hence, inside-out burrito…

Naked California Club 'Sandwich'

April 17, 2018 Amanda Plott

A good long while back I was introduced to the 'Unwich' which is a sandwich... minus the bread and wrapped up in lettuce instead; keeping it a handheld portable sandwich style meal without the most of the carbs or the guilt. That's right, we're stripping the sandwich down to the nitty-gritty and I promise you'll thank me later for it.

One of my all-time favorite sandwiches is and always will be a club sandwich. So, that's my go-to for this naked unwich today. Who needs the bread anyway? I'm getting to keep all my favorite parts; bacon, turkey, cheese, and even avocado!...

Spring is upon us here in Austin Texas, which for me means entertaining friends and family... and also means it's time for deviled eggs. Not just any deviled eggs though, we're talking fully loaded in a way that I never really thought of before. These Bacon & Cheddar 'Fully Loaded' Deviled Eggs are perfectly simple to make and YES... are as fully loaded as they can come; with bacon, greek yogurt, green onions and even their fair share of cheddar!

Deviled eggs are a go-to appetizer or snack for me anytime I'm playing hostess. Why? The reasoning is simple, just as simple as they are to make! The ease of making deviled eggs is what puts them at the top of my list; boil eggs, mix, fill and chill! That's all there is to it. Plus this 'fully loaded' version takes the classic up a notch (or several) for one beautiful bite of deliciousness!...

Low-Carb Bacon & Cheddar Sous Vide Egg Bites (Instant Pot)

February 21, 2018 Amanda Plott

If you haven't been struck by the Sous Vide Egg Bites bug yet, then you don't know what you're missing! My first experience with egg bites was at none other than Starbucks after hearing all the hoopla surrounding them. And let me just say, they did not disappoint. They're soft and fluffy and full of yummy little bits of flavor bomb awesomeness.

Being as they were a little costly though, I thought I could do myself a service and find a way to make them for myself at home; allowing me to change up the flavors and save me a few dollars along the way...

Baked Eggs in a Zucchini Nest

December 12, 2017 Amanda Plott

Wakey-wakey eggs and bakey! This mornings breakfast is brought to you by, leftovers! Okay, maybe not exactly leftovers but an accumulation of things that I indeed had leftover in my fridge that went unused through the week in some way shape or form.

For instance, the original plan for the spiralized zucchini was for zoodles in a vegan Pho. The same goes for the mushrooms. I'm not entirely sure why the tomatoes were untouched, but somehow everything always works out in the end. Just like these Baked Eggs in a Zucchini Nest!...

Breakfast Tostadas

September 18, 2017 Amanda Plott

Good morning, beautiful.

This is another oldie but goodie that I decided needed to get a bit of an update. The pictures were old and out of date and my cooking style has changed tremendously. It's the process of the ever evolving home cook.

Originally when I made these tostadas, my grandmother is visiting me from Oregon coast. She usually comes down once a year for a good 4-6 weeks to indulge in the Texas heat. What can I say? She's a born and raised Texan that is now denied the sun except for a single week out of the year when a few rays manage to peek through the ever looming clouds in the sky there on the Oregon coast.

Don't get me wrong. I love Oregon. And further more... I love rain.

At any rate, one of my grandmother's favorite things to eat are tostadas...
