'Everything' Deviled Eggs

March 2, 2019 Amanda Plott

Everything Bagels and the seasoning used on them is ALL the rage right now. So when I got some of the seasoning in my hot little hands this weekend… I knew that I was going to have to make a few fun things with it! These 'Everything' Deviled Eggs were first up on the list.

Deviled eggs are sort of staple in my house. They’re a favorite around here, which of course I don’t mind one bit since they’re pretty damn good for you. Low-carb, low-fat, high protein, and of course… gluten-free! Good stuff all the way around. And when you add ‘Everything’ seasoning into the mix? Well, you just can’t go wrong…

French Dip Bites + Au Jus

February 4, 2019 Amanda Plott

Sometimes the family just wants something light and snacky for dinner. These French Dip Bites are perfect for being added to any game day or get-together spread. They’re rather quick and easy to make… and that homemade au jus? Mmm… that may just be the best part! It’s delicious and almost fool proof.

Usually au jus can be complicated and time consuming. This one though? Easy breezy with no drippings required. Plus, being as its homemade, you get to decide how to season it! While the bites themselves are delicious the au jus is really the star of the show here…

Cheesy Bacon & Pesto Potato Skins

We’ve all made our New Year’s resolutions and now it’s time to continue sticking to them! This year, as with any year, my goal is to continue eating better and more health conscious. Eating ‘right’ can come in a lot of forms, and for me one way to do that this year is to start eating more ethically and simply.

These potato skins are just that. Simple. As simple as they can possibly be. From the potato to the bacon on top there is minimal ingredients used or time spent here! Another good thing about these potato skins? They’re great as a side dish OR as a hot appetizer. I’m thinking… game day spread. Oh, yeah!…

5 Ingredient Peanut Butter Granola

January 11, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’m telling y’all. I’m still working on my breakfast game. Sometimes a girl just wants something savory. And sometimes… it’s the sweets being craved. Today I was craving a little bit of both. Something sweet. Something salty. And definitely something crunchy! That’s where this easy-peasy 5 Ingredient Peanut Butter Granola comes in!

With just 5 ingredients and 5 minutes or hands on time, you too can have this delish granola in your life. And why not? Granola can be expensive and full of things you don’t like, don’t want, and/or don’t care about. Not this granola.

Vegan Black-Eyed Pea Salad

January 3, 2019 Amanda Plott

Who the hell ever said that black-eyed peas had to just be a New Year’s day thing? Yes, I’m deliberately posting this recipe AFTER the first of the year to be a bit of a rebel.

Every year in my house, it’s the same old debate. What do we do with black-eyed peas to make them more edible. Let’s face it, black-eyed peas earned their nickname ‘dirt peas’ for a reason. Over the years, I’d like to think that I’ve come up with a few clever ways.

This year though, with a cold running rampant through the house… something FRESH and light sounded like what we all needed…

Mediterranean Snack Box

November 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

I am completely under the weather today. I’m still not completely sure if it’s the weather, allergies, or if I just flat out have a cold. Nothing much is going to keep me from doing my thing though, so on with the show! Whilst my throat, face, and most of my body hurts… I’ve opted to keep the meals this week simple.

This Mediterranean Snack Box isn’t really a recipe, but more so a meal prep option for lunch! Plus, I have a few hummus recipes that would go perfectly in this box. The 5 Ingredient Roasted Red Pepper Hummus is one of my favorites. But that Roasted Beat Hummus has got to be the most pretty!…
