Breakfast Roll Up Wrap

October 19, 2022 Amanda Plott

Who can say no to a good breakfast wrap? Not me! This Breakfast roll Up Wrap has been my go-to breakfast for the most of the last week or so. And it’s easy to see why. Bacon, eggs, and cheese all wrapped up and ready to go! Of course, I always have to add on some pico, salsa, and jalapeños for an extra kick!

All said and done, this roll up will only cost you about 300 calories, which isn’t bad at all when you consider what all you’re getting. Plus, it’s super filling and cheesy too! Bonus, it’s simple and easy to make on top of it all. Literally one pan and you’re done…

Cheeseburger Salad Jar

September 25, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s the weekend so why not do a little bit of meal prep work ahead of the work week? These Cheeseburger Salad Jar are super easy to make and are the equivalent of a cheeseburger turned into a salad and then shoved into a jar for ease of grab-and-go lunch on the run. It’s got everything in there that you know and love about a traditional cheeseburger.

Ground beef, lettuce, tomato, pickles, cheese, and of course special sauce for dressing! It doesn’t have to stop there either. I also drizzled a little bit of ketchup and mustard over mine because it gave it even more of that cheeseburger feel!…

Pastitsio

August 20, 2022 Amanda Plott

I’m just going to start this one out by saying that this recipe does take time. While it’s fairly easy to make, there are layering components that each take some time to put together. That being said, this dish is a great one. It tastes like all the time and effort that’s been put into it. So, what is Pastitsio anyway? It’s a Greek style of lasagna basically. The main difference between lasagna and Pastitsio is that Pastitsio is made with a different style of noodle and also with a béchamel sauce rather than ricotta. It’s layered a bit differently than lasagna too.

Now, I’ve never made a béchamel sauce, and even with this being my first time doing so I found it to be pretty easy to do and is very similar to any sort of roux based sauce. The béchamel gave this dish life. There’s so much flavor packed into the sauce that the béchamel is needed to sort of cut through that intense flavor…

Jalapeño Cheddar Bread Machine Bread

It’s H.O.T. Hot. It’s the long stretch here at the end of Summer and I can’t wait to get to the other end of it when we hopefully roll into the cooler weather of Fall. With it being the heat of the Summer, I’m still in avoiding-the-oven mode for the most part. But, that being said, I haven’t made any fresh homemade bread in a while and my bread machine was starting to collect dust. We can’t have that!

So I busted my bread machine out and decided to make a savory flavorful bread to have on hand for lunches this week. This Jalapeño Cheddar Bread Machine Bread is super easy to make since the bread machine does literally almost all of the work for you. The mixing, the kneading, the baking - yep… all of it…

Blooming Breakfast Quesadilla Ring

July 30, 2022 Amanda Plott

Oh man, it’s been a whirlwind of a few days. That’s always how the end of Summer is when we start to get into back-to-school though. And this year is no different. Especially because my kiddo is going to a new school this year on their own choosing to do so. So after the chaos of the last few days, it was nice to get to have some time this morning to make some breakfast.

After making my Blooming Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas, I decided that I should try the same idea with breakfast instead. So here you have this Blooming Breakfast Quesadilla Ring! It’s a fun and easy way to make breakfast quesadillas for the whole family!…

Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas

July 6, 2022 Amanda Plott

I was thinking the other day about enchiladas and I started to wonder… why are they always for lunch or dinner? Isn’t there a way to have them for breakfast? Enchiladas for breakfast? You bet! These Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas are made by rolling up vegetarian sausage, eggs, and cheese up in a tortilla and then baking them in a homemade gravy.

They’re absolutely delicious and perfect for making as a weekend breakfast or brunch. Plus, you can always make them ahead of time and then heat them for the final bake when you’re ready to enjoy. They reheat well too if you make a batch and have leftovers, you can always enjoy them through the week for a quick breakfast bite…
