Skinny Mushroom & Asparagus Omelette

January 9, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’ve got to be honest. I’ve been skipping out on breakfast for a while now. With school starting back up after the winter break and a terrible head cold running rampant through the house… There just hasn’t been enough time in the day to fuss with breakfast. And the whole point of breakfast is just that… to break-the-fast of the night of sleeping.

They don’t say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day for no reason. It’s there to start your day off and get you in gear for the rest of the day. Trust me when I say that being ‘hangry’ is a real thing. Finally, I made plans this week to stick to my guns and be SURE that I started my day off right with actually eating breakfast again….

Dark Chocolate & Pumpkin Swirl Bundt Cake

September 15, 2018 Amanda Plott

We’re finally in the 80’s around here, and I can feel Fall in the air just about. It’s one of my favorite times of year. Halloween is just around the corner and pumpkin spice is featured almost anywhere you look. Bring. It. On. I am so ready to get to use my stove and oven again without having to worry about spending the rest of the day cooling the house back off. The struggle is real, y’all.

Baking is not my favorite thing to do in the kitchen. It scares and intimidates me. And today was one of those reasons why. I turned my back for (what seemed like one second) and I over-beat my batter. Meaning my cake collapsed a bit in the middle. I was frustrated beyond belief with myself, but the family didn’t mind at all. In fact, they all said how good the cake was - even though I was mad at it…

Skinny Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Dip

September 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

Sometimes, you just feel like having snacks and appetizer style things for dinner. Or maybe that's just me and my family? This weekend has been a rainy one, and I'm not about to complain about that. We've been needing the rain and the cool off from the blaring Texas sun. Even so! With being stuck indoors and games and movies being the fun of the weekend, I thought it would be perfect for an appetizer night.

For whatever reason, rain always leaves me craving Mexican food. Namely enchiladas. That's why I went with this Skinny Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Dip as part of our rainy day spread. This dip tastes just like those famous cream cheese chiclen enchladas that we all know and love. The only difference is that this dip is guilt-free!

Skinny Cream Cheese Rangoon Dip & Wonton Chips

July 20, 2018 Amanda Plott

I keep saying that I'm swearing off my stove and oven right now, and then the very next day I'm firing one, or both of them, up again cook some yummies. And so far lately, all the yummies have been worth heating the house up over. And this Skinny Cream Cheese Rangoon Dip with Wonton Chips inso different. I may even do the very same thing again tonight!

So first thing first. I love cream cheese rangoons. I've made them a few times, and... I could probably eat my weight in them with no questions asked. That being said, I'm all about putting a twist on the things I love. I guess that's why I decided to turn cream cheese rangoons into a dip!…

Skinny One-Pan Chicken Pot Pie

July 18, 2018 Amanda Plott

Picture this. It's the end of my week. I go grocery shopping on Thursdays and... I legit have had nothing planned to cook for the past few days. So, to say that I'm running on fumes over here would be an understatement. I've got pieces and parts of a few different things, but nothing that seemingly went together.

Trying to avoid a trip to the store or fast-food I got to thinking. My initial thought for dinner tonight was to make a quiche since I've got some eggs leftover. But, I also really really really don't want to have my oven on. Much less for an entire hour. NEXT. Being as I had some leftover phyllo dough in the freezer along with a plethora of veggies... I settled on a pot pie!

If you're looking for a mashed potato alternative, look no further! I've made mashed cauliflower a lot of times and for many different kinds of meals. This one though, is the perfect quick and easy side dish that is sure to wow the entire family, whether as part of a busy weeknight or weekend get together.

These mashed no-tatoes are made with cauliflower instead of potatoes and are loaded up with all the goodies to make them 'fully loaded'. We're talking bacon, cheese, green onion... the works!…
