Spring Vegetable Lasagna

March 30, 2021 Amanda Plott

In case you haven’t heart yet, it’s Spring! And I’m sticking to Spring themed foods for a good while. This Spring Vegetable Lasagna is a Spring infused lasagna that’s meatless and made with all the best and freshest produce that Spring time has to offer. That includes, zucchini, summer squash, spinach, and of course peas! Yes. There’s peas in this lasagna!

As strange as that may sound, this lasagna turns out bright, vibrant, and absolutely delicious. Plus, you get a whole HUGE piece for under 300 calories. Not too shabby for a lasagna that’s veggieful and cheesy! It’s even more guilt-free with whole wheat lasagna noodles being the basis for this layered beauty…

Vegetarian Sushi

So… I don’t like sea food. That is why you will never see any sea food recipes around here. No, I’m not allergic to it, I just don’t like it. It’s not a taste thing or a texture thing. It is flat out just that I don’t like sea food. BUT. I do like sushi. I love vegetarian sushi.

Sushi can be a little pricy. Especially consider what it is. Seaweed, rice, and an assortment of veggies, meats, and sauces. Seems simple enough, right? While there is a certain art to making sushi traditionally, I’m a modern girl and a simple girl. So, let's make some damn sushi…

Zucchini Taco Skillet

Sometimes on Taco Tuesday, you just want to try something a little more outside of the box. This Zucchini Taco Skillet is not only delicious, but it’s a one pot wonder and about as guilt free as you can get in the taco department.

This taco skillet starts off with ground beef and some onions. Pretty standard stuff. Then there’s tomatoes, black beans, zucchini, and of course cheese! Plenty of cheese to go around too! For being such a quick and easy dish, it is absolutely packed with flavor…

Do you love sour cream chicken enchiladas but aren’t a fan of the guilt associated with them? These Collard Green (Tortilla-Free) Creamy Chicken Enchiladas are the perfect way to get your enchilada fix while going about it in a perfectly guilt-free way!

These enchiladas are not only stuffed with shredded chicken, but also with bonus veggies; zucchini and onions. And that's even before being wrapped in collared greens leaves instead of tortillas. Trust me when I say that you won’t miss the tortillas at all…

Buffalo Chicken Zucchini Boats

September 17, 2019 Amanda Plott

One of my favorite things about summer produce? Zucchini and summer squash is aplenty and HUGE. When I come across the giant squash at the store, it’s pretty hard, and damn near impossible for me to pass them up. That’s why you’ll see ALL the zucchini and squash recipes that you could ever want in the summer season.

As summer comes to a close, and the squash are dwindling, I decided to give another good zucchini inspired recipe. With some cooked chicken on hand, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Buffalo Chicken Zucchini Boats!…

Soba Noodle Lunch Box

September 3, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’ve found lately that meal prepping my lunches has been my saving grace. If it wasn’t for preparing my lunches for a few days in advance, well… I’d be making some rather poor choices when it came time to eat. Getting back into the rhythm of ‘back-to-school’ has been a tougher transition this year than I had imagined.

This Soba Noodle Lunch Box is asian inspired with soba noodles, spiraled veggies, and of course a homemade Thai peanut dressing that is finger-licking good. Not only can you make this lunch box up ahead of time, you can also rest easy knowing the entire lunch is only 250 calories and vegetarian!…
