Rice Paper Veggie Pancakes

January 6, 2026 Amanda Plott

Who says pancakes have to be sweet and sleepy? Meet Rice Paper Veggie Pancakes: crisp, light, wildly delicious, and filled with a colorful jumble of veggies. They’re the kind of snack that makes your lunchbox feel cheeky and your body quietly grateful. Gluten-free? Yes. Grain-free? Sometimes. Guilt-free? Absolutely. Delicious? Duh.

Why rice paper? Rice paper wrappers (the kind used for summer rolls) are thin, crisp up beautifully in a skillet, and provide a neutral canvas for bold fillings. Unlike batter-based pancakes, these are mostly veg with just a smidge of binder so the focus stays on texture — crunchy edges, tender centers, and an almost sneaky amount of satisfaction…

Skinny 'Starbucks' Protein Bistro Box

January 2, 2026 Amanda Plott

What can I say? I used to be a Starbucks fanatic.

I once had a serious relationship with the Skinny Cinnamon Dulce Latte for nearly as long as I can remember. It's a lot more rare that I actually get anything to eat from there, and when I do... I always try to stick to things that are not in that lovely 'baked goods' display case perched so blissfully next to the cashier.

No, no. I dive downward into the cooler section and avoid eye contact with those pastries as if they were Medusa herself.

Girl Dinner / Grazing Board

December 30, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you’ve spent even five minutes on social media in the last few years, you’ve likely encountered the “girl dinner” — a delightfully chaotic, no-rules meal built from snacks, fridge finds, and whatever satisfied contemporary cravings. It’s casual, creative, and unapologetically joyful. Now imagine capturing that energy in a grazing board: an easy, customizable platter you can assemble in minutes that looks gorgeous, eats even better, and stays true to The Skinny Fork promise — tasty with a health-conscious twist…

Tahini Honey Butter

If peanut butter and honey had a cultured, slightly nutty cousin who wore a beret and always brought snacks to the party, it would be tahini honey butter. This spread takes the silky, sesame-forward richness of tahini, softens it with butter, and brightens it with honey — creating something that’s creamy, slightly savory, and perfectly sweet. It’s comfort food with a grown-up twist, and it plays well with everything from toast to roast vegetables. Welcome to the simplest upgrade your pantry has seen all year…

Mediterranean Lunch Plate

If lunchtime is your chance to recharge, keep cravings at bay, and maybe sneak in a little sunshine on your plate, the Mediterranean lunch plate is your new best friend. Think vibrant, balanced, and unpretentiously delicious: a mix of fresh vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, healthy fats, and bright herbs. It’s the type of meal that makes you feel virtuous without tasting like rabbit food…

Mushroom & Toasted Walnut Salad + Truffle Vinaigrette

December 18, 2025 Amanda Plott

Meet your new favorite side (or main, if you’re feeling fancy and carbo-loading on crusty bread): a mushroom-forward salad that’s earthy, crunchy, and dressed in a truffle vinaigrette so good it will make you whisper “wow” into your napkin. It’s healthy but indulgent — the kind of guilt-free deliciousness we live for. Think meaty mushrooms, crisp greens, toasted walnuts for that addictive snap, and a vinaigrette with just enough truffle personality to steal the show…
