There isn't much that's prettier than this hummus right here. I mean... look at it. It's perfectly gorgeous. Roasted beets make for the beautiful fuschia pink hue in this hummus that is sure stand out any time of year but especially around Valentine's Day.
Hummus is super easy to make, and it will save you a ton of money to make yourself too! Plus, you have complete control over what goes into it. And let's face it... It's just fun to eat pretty stuff. You eat with your eyes first...
Read MoreCan you believe that it's been almost 5 years since I started The Skinny Fork? How exciting! 5 years can make such a big difference. I look back at old recipes when I make them again and often end up retaking the photos. With these Skinny Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls being one of my favorites, I thought I would go back and blow the dust off and give it a bit of a facelift. As usual, the recipe is the same, though I did add pressure cooker instructions! Here's the original as written!
I've been going about this all wrong.
I've made buffalo chicken egg rolls about a million times now. And this past week when I was buying some egg roll wrappers, they were all sold out. Of course. Desperate, I asked one of the clerks who mentioned there were some other options in the frozen section...
Read MoreWith the Big Game coming up tomorrow I thought I needed to get another good game day recipe out. These Low-Carb Chicken 'Nachos' have been something that I've been working on for a month or two now, trying to get the spice level right and the cooking method down perfectly.
These Chicken 'Nachos' are really more of Chicken 'Not-Chos' since there is no chip involved here. Instead, the entire nacho is based on the pieces of chicken themselves. To pack in as much flavor as possible, I started these off with seasoning. A LOT of seasoning too. Let's face it, chicken breast can be a little moot. So, I wanted to be sure it had all the help that it could get here...
Read MoreOkay, but for real... I had no idea what to call this. Beets have been a big part of my meal plans lately, and that's mostly because I've gotten them for a few weeks in a row now in my local farm-to-table box. And let me just say, I am a huge beet fan. My mom, however? She thought she only liked pickled beets. (Because that's the only way she's ever had them.)
So while she's been hanging around my place I've now managed to convert her by way of a beet pesto pizza and also that Winter Citrus Power Breakfast from earlier this week. One of these days she'll learn to trust me and my food! One of these days...
Read MoreI guess you could say that this is one bee-utiful breakfast. Ba-dum-psshh! Okay. Seriously though? Let's talk about this power breakfast right here. It's winter right now and there's a plethora of fresh winter citrus going around. Right now is one of the few times of year that you'll find blood oranges out and about.
Don't be scared either. They're called blood oranges because of their usual deep red splotched on their peel and their rich ruby red color of fruit inside. If you've seen or had blood orange juice before, you know what I mean. Along with blood oranges, the grapefruits are HUGE right now too. Just the way I like 'em. Big and juicy...

Just because the holidays are over doesn't mean that the entertaining has stopped. At least, that's how it is around my place. I like to think of my house as the central hub. The neutral territory. THE place to be. At least once a week there is something going on and I've got a house full of people.
My daughter and I are usually outnumbered by the boys too. Even when my mom comes to visit, if you're counting the animals, we're still outnumbered by at least 2 to 1. So more often than not, when there are people over, I like to stick to food that I know the menfolk will enjoy while also trying to keep my womanly figure. That's where these Armadillo Eggs come in...
