Skinny Truffle Deviled Eggs

November 16, 2019 Amanda Plott

With the Holidays coming up quickly, I like to get a few fun appetizers in mind ahead of time. Deviled eggs are one of my staple snacks just because most people enjoy them, they're quick and easy to make, and they can be pretty impressive when you put a twist on the very classic and simple egg.

I’ve made a lot of deviled eggs in the past. Everything eggs, bacon & cheddar eggs, bloody mary eggs, jalapeño popper eggs, and even buffalo deviled eggs! Today I wanted to keep things simple with these deviled eggs while also elevating them, and truffle seemed like the best way to do that!…

Broccoli & Cheese Tater Tot Breakfast Bake

November 4, 2019 Amanda Plott

As the Holidays draw ever closer, I’m always inclined to start thinking about casseroles. Especially when it comes to breakfast. I like to have something I can toss together quickly (or even the night before) so that I can serve up a group of people without breaking a sweat.

And trust me when I say that I’ve made my fair share of breakfast casseroles in the past.

This Broccoli & Cheese Tater Tot Breakfast Bake is based off of one that I made about a year ago. I’ve taken it a step further, lightening it even more, and using some veggie loaded tater tots instead of plain-jane traditional ones…

Asian Marinated Eggs

October 21, 2019 Amanda Plott

Originally, I was introduced to soy marinated eggs at a local ramen joint. Of course… I’m not the most confident in my skills to soft boil, peel, and marinate said eggs myself sooo… the next best thing is a hard-boiled version! And I say next best only because these are really just a very different animal all together. The idea is the same though. And the taste is too!

These Asian Marinated Eggs are a delicious and easy to make addition to … well, almost any Asian inspired meal. Add them to ramen, serve as a side with a salad, or even as an appetizer…

Protein Packed Cottage Cheese & Spinach Omelette

If you’re looking for a simple and easy to make breakfast that also happens to be guilt-free, look no further! This Protein Packed Cottage Cheese & Spinach Omelette is where it’s at. One pan and a handful of ingredients is all you need to achieve breakfast bliss.

This is pretty much the breakfast of champions. A perfectly lightened up omelette that’s loaded up with as much protein as one could manage to get in a meatless meal. There’s plenty of spinach in there too, giving a boost to the veggie intake!…

Crustless Quiche (Instant Pot)

August 31, 2019 Amanda Plott

So, I’ve had and made my fair share of egg bites in the instant pot, right? That got me to thinking… If I can make egg bites in the instant pot, why can’t I make a quiche in it? Well, as it turns out, you surely can! This quiche is packed with protein and is low in carbs. Plus, it’s keto-friendly and delicious!

This quiche cooks a bit more quickly in the instant pot than it would in the oven. It also comes out with a more ‘fluffy’ texture. Something more akin to an egg bite than a dense quiche…

Nordic Lunch Box

March 9, 2019 Amanda Plott

Sometimes simple is the best. This light little lunch is Nordic inspired. It’s easy-peasy with just a few clean ingredients; making it perfect for meal prepping and making ahead for the week! The original ‘boxed lunch’ that I got the inspiration for this lunch box for was made with a smoked salmon. I’m not a seafood eater though, and with St. Patrick’s day just around the corner, I thought deli sliced corned beef would be the next best option!

The fun thing about this lunch is that you can do with it as you please. Pile it all onto the crackers for one delicious mixed bite. Or keep it all separate and enjoy as a finger-food grab-and-go lunch…
