Thai Chicken Wrap

July 26, 2020 Amanda Plott

Lunch is served! This Thai Chicken Wrap is as simple as it comes. A simple lavash pita bread wrapping cabbage, carrot, peanuts, and chicken! There isn’t much here to lighten up since all of the ingredients are already fairly clean and simple. And this Thai Chicken Wrap must absolutely be served with a Thai Peanut Dressing for dipping.

The sauce is pretty much what makes this wrap ‘Thai chicken’. But, if you aren’t a fan of Thai peanut sauce then you are more than welcome to try any other number of dipping sauces that you enjoy instead. This wrap is super easy though and perfect PERFECT for meal prepping lunches for the week…

Skinny Baked Garlic Parmesan Boneless Chicken Wings

June 30, 2020 Amanda Plott

I’ve got to say… I’ve been holding off on making chicken wings for a lot of reasons. Mostly because I don’t like to eat meat off the bone, and also it can be pretty tricky to make wings in a better-for-you way. That’s probably because most wings are deep fried and the closest thing I have to that is an air-fryer which isn’t quite the same.

I came across a little trick though that helps baked chicken get nice and crispy brown on the outside and yet still juicy on the inside. So, these aren’t ‘battered’ boneless wings but they are still crisp and loaded with intense garlic and parmesan flavor!…

Italian Chicken Tenders

Who doesn’t like a good baked chicken tender? No one I know. These Italian Chicken Tenders are breaded in Italian seasonings and spices (and even some cheese) before being baked to perfection. They’re simple, delicious, and sure to disappear quickly from any family style dinner.

These tenders turn out low carb and kept friendly while also being another fun kid friendly Italian night dinner option. I made them just a bit better-for-you by using whole wheat bread crumbs that I seasoned myself with various dried Italian herbs and spices…

Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pesto Wrap

June 5, 2020 Amanda Plott

If you’re looking for some lunch time inspiration, here you go! This Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pesto Wrap is super quick and easy to make with just a handful in ingredients and a ton of flavor. When I got my hands on the sun-dried tomato tortilla wraps, I thought it would be fun to use them to make a ‘caprese style’ twist on a wrap with them.

So I loaded them up with two different kinds of pesto, chicken, bacon, mozzarella, and baby spinach. That’s pretty much all there is to it! Roll it all up together and you’ve got one of the easiest and most tasty wraps you’ll ever come across.

I served my wraps with baked chips and some fresh veggies, but some fruit, soup, or even a salad would also be nice sides here.

If you’re making this head of time as a meal prep, there isn’t much you need to do any differently. Store in an air-tight container for up to 3-5 days until ready to enjoy.

Chicken & Cornbread Casserole

May 20, 2020 Amanda Plott

Comfort food has been the name of the game over the past few weeks and months. I’ve been using my oven a lot more than usual. I guess we could all use the comfort of a good home cooked meal during these trying times. And there isn’t much that’s more comforting than a nice warm serving of this Chicken & Cornbread Casserole!

This casserole starts off with a hearty mixture of chicken and vegetables and it then topped off with an easy homemade cornbread. The end result is something similar to a potpie, but with more of a southern twist with the cornbread…

For a lot of us, Summer has come (or will come) early this year. Especially if you have kiddos! While Summer is officially a couple of months off still, I thought I’d get things heading in that direction. I mean… it’s already in the high 80’s here on most days. It’s been perfect weather for grilling!

With it being warm out, I wanted to make use of the grill, but also have something nice, cool, and refreshing on the plate. That’s where this Tex-Mex Pico De Gallo Grilled Chicken comes into play. I got my hands on some Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce and knew it would make the perfect marinated for chicken…
