Low-Carb Cauliflower Pizza Dip

May 24, 2018 Amanda Plott

Ever crave pizza but not all the guilt that goes along with it?

Yeah, me too!

I think though, that I may have finally found a way to sate that pizza urge without all the guilt to follow. This cauliflower pizza dip is low-carb, gluten-free, keto-friendly, and... wait for it... absolutely freaking amazing.

You can trust me when I say that no one who eats this dip will ever guess that it's better-for-you in any way, shape, or form. That's because it feels rich and decadent. It feels naughty. It feels so bad... but tastes so good…

Strawberry Shortcake Energy Bites

May 11, 2018 Amanda Plott

Is it just me or is May one of those months where you're running around like a crazy person the most? Maybe it's because we're just ahead of summer break for the kids and everything is winding down. It's the sprint to the finish line and it is not for the faint off heart!

I know that for me, it's been one thing after the other. Every day there seems to be something important that NEEDS to be done. On top of all of that, I've been getting back into the swing of exercising. So right now, more than ever, my body is craving energy; every from good food and proper rest. That's why I decided to make myself these Strawberry Shortcake Energy Bites…

Baked Feta

May 3, 2018 Amanda Plott

I'm tired, y'all. It's the last few weeks of school until summer break and I am dragging my booty just as much (if not more) than my sweet little girl. I'm tired and the struggle to eat real food couldn't be any greater. It's so easy to talk yourself out of eating the right things, the good things, the healthier things. I have found one way to make it easier to not fall into that trap though, and that's by following the K.I.S.S. method.

Keep. It. Stupid. Simple.

This baked feta isn't fake. It's simple. It's a REAL dish. It's a REAL bite. It's REAL. It's RAW. And it is beautiful…

Loaded Hummus

April 29, 2018 Amanda Plott

Let's talk apps. No, not phone apps... edible apps. Appetizers! Sometimes, I have those days where I don't want to end it with a big huge meal. And today is one of those days. After spending almost all of yesterday wading around in the heat out at Pease Park here in Austin for Eeyore's Birthday, I just don't feel much like indulging in full on meals today.

So, a selection of cool and fresh snack bites sounds PERFECT. With hummus being one of my favorite snacks, I thought it would be the perfect time to make this Loaded Hummus; filling enough to be a light meal and light enough not to weigh me down…

Low-Carb Broccoli Cheese Dip (Slow Cooker)

March 26, 2018 Amanda Plott

Everyone should know by now that I am a cheese freak. A cheeseoholic. A cheese master. ...I guess one could even say that I'm a bit... cheesy. Buh-dum-psssh. Queso is usually my go-to cheesy wonder of amazingness, but I thought today I would change it up a bit and go with something a bit more traditional and Americanized.

What's more American than broccoli and cheese? Besides Apple Pie or Baseball. Neither of which would make for a very good cheese dip...

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!...
