Once more, I am forced to say... 'I'm sorry' and... 'you're welcome' in the same sentence.
Who says 'you can't have your cake and eat it too?' Not this girl.
If you haven't noticed yet... I am all about sweets and treats. Eatings skinny and healthy doesn't mean things can't be fun or enjoyed!...

Generally when I make enchiladas, I make them naked. Whether stuffed into a zucchini or wrapped in greens of some sort. This time around I decided to go with the real deal. These Duo Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas are made with not one sauce, but two! Giving you a variety of flavors all in one enchilada.
Green sauce down one side, red sauce down the other, and all of them being loaded with chicken and pepper jack cheese. They are super quick and easy to make and are one of my favorite Tex-mex dinners for busy weeknights!…

As we get closer to my all time favorite month of October, I naturally start to gravitate towards beer-centric recipes. I guess it has something to do with Oktoberfest, that or there tends to be more pumpkin spice beers readily available, and those are super fun to play with in the kitchen.
In fact, an ‘October’ themed beer is what I used in this Skinny Beer Cheese Apple Soup! Don’t let the ‘skinny’ title of this soup fool you, it tastes AMAZING. Apples and cheese go together like peas and carrots, throw some beer in there too and you’ve got it made…

Everyone loves a loaded baked potatoes, but what if you could make them even better by making them a finger food, portable, and perfect for any side dish or game day appetizer spread?

Roasted in olive oil and salt before being FULLY loaded with all the staples of a good baked potatoes. They take under an hour to make and most of that is hands-off time while the oven does all the work. As usual, I swapped sour cream for greek yogurt and standard back for a low-sodium center cut version…

I clearly have an issue with cinnamon rolls... They are a weak point for me. Always have been, and always will be.
I've attempted to make cinnamon rolls without cake mix, but honestly, the come out so much more soft and fluffy with the addition. Plus, it allows for you to have some fun with all the flavors of cake mix that are offered! ...
One of my fall favorites is spice cake. And what better to use as a base for some pumpkin spice cinnamon rolls?

This week we’re finally going ‘back to school’. I made the tough decision to start my little one with learning online at least for the first week, and maybe even on to the first semester. There is no other reason than the fact that I work from home myself and have for years, so the idea of her doing school online here at the start, isn’t really such a ‘big deal’. Even so, it’s still BACK TO SCHOOL. Which means any and all things involved in that. Even breakfast!
Of course, with our first cold front blowing in on the day she starts school, I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to make some Fall-centric granola for breakfast. This Apple Spice Granola is gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, and vegan too…
