Quinoa Pesto Bowl

January 30, 2019 Amanda Plott

This post has been sponsored by Great Day Farm Eggs. All opinions are mine alone. #EggceptionallyGreat

Bowls are all the rage right now. Breakfast bowls. Lunch Bowls. Dinner bowls. Healthy bowls! Fortunately, this bowl can be either of those. One of the best parts about this bowl though is that it’s super easy to put together. This bowl starts with some cooked quinoa and is layered with greens, avocado, pesto, and of course - an egg!

Everything’s better with an egg on it, right?…

Lightened Up Chicken Spaghetti

November 5, 2018 Amanda Plott
chicken-spaghetti7.jpg

I think Chicken Spaghetti is a classic that almost all of us enjoy at one point or another in our childhood. While my mom claims to have made it a few times when I was a kid, I mostly remember trying it for the first time at my grandma’s house. Even though my grandma was the cook of the family, I’m still not sure if it was her or one of my aunts that made the chicken spaghetti.

If you are one of the unlucky few that never had chicken spaghetti, well you’re in for a treat today. Chicken Spaghetti is… pretty much what it sounds like. Chicken + spaghetti noodles. It’s not like classic spaghetti though. There’s no tomato spaghetti sauce involved here. Oh, no. No, no, no…

Spooky scary skeleton! … …I have no idea. It’s a song that my daughter sings. While these aren’t skeletons, or made of bones, these 'Tombstone' Pizza Pockets are super cute and rather easy to make too! What’s better is that YOU get to decide what goes in them and their shape - unlike those frozen-to-microwave ones. You know the ones I’m talking about. The ones filled with a bunch of scary sounding yuck.

These cute little pizza pockets are made with a whole wheat dough and are filled with the basics of any pepperoni pizza; sauce, cheese, and pepperoni! Yep. That’s basically it. A few traditional pizza favorites in a perfect and festive little pocket!…

The start of school means the end of summer, right? Right?! I have to say, that I have just about reached my limit on the heat over here in Texas right now. And I am more than ready for the cooler days of fall that are headed our way. Hopefully sooner than later. It's 100 degrees + here right now and I just can't anymore.

I'm hoping I'll be setting the tone for fall with this Pumpkin Spice Bacon Wrapped Chicken Tenders. What? Pumpkin spice and chicken tenders? Yes! I promise you that it's nothing to be scared of. It's a little outside of the box, but amazingly delicious and is so so SO easy to make with just 5 ingredients. I'm serious, y'all. Just count them!…

Cornbread & Chicken Nugget Cupcakes with Mashed Potato Frosting

July 29, 2018 Amanda Plott

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Tyson Foods, Inc. All opinions are entirely my own.

Back-to-school is on the horizon, and being the mom of an ever growing little, I've found that there's a few tricks to getting kids to eat their dinner sometimes! One of the best ways is to make it fun. Yes, food can be fun and these Cornbread & Chicken Nugget Cupcakes are just that! Fun. It's a savory twist on a cupcake; letting the kids eat with their eyes first.

The base of the cupcake is made with a quick and easy cornbread muffin that's made by mixing together a self-rising cornmeal, cheese, and a creamed corn. This easy cornbread trick is one that I've been using for a couple of years now. And so far, it hasn't let me down yet! From there, the 'cupcakes' are topped with a potato and cauliflower mash 'frosting' which is also made with just a few ingredients…

Summer Squash & Ricotta Pasta

July 6, 2018 Amanda Plott
summer-squash-ricotta-pasta3.jpg

Oyi,  oyi, oyi! We are in the THICK of summer right now. It is H. O. T. - HOT! But, one thing I'm not mad about is the plethora of summer veggies and fruits that comes along with the heat. The summer squash and tomatoes are in season here right now and I am eating it up. Pun totally intended.

Summer squash is one of my favorite veggies, that's because they are so versatile. And while there's a lot of things that you can do with them, I've been craving pasta - so that's where they went today. Not just any pasta though. Whole wheat pasta that's kept light and yet creamy still with some ricotta cheese…
