Chicken Lunch Wrap

December 17, 2019 Amanda Plott

Who has two thumbs and loves the ‘cool wrap’ from Chick-fil-a? This girl.

It’s true, the cool wrap is one of my favorite things to get from the fast food chain. Mostly because it’s really such a healthy option. Grilled chicken, plenty of greens… and what is that wrap? Well, with a quick search over their menu and the ingredients for the wrap, I found that a ‘lavash pita’ bread is used.

Lavash pita bread is a very thin and very soft pita bread that is perfectly foldable, rollable, and doesn’t tear very easily. It holds up extraordinarily well. It’s officially my ‘tortilla’ replacement, I think…

Chicken Parmesan Dip

I love Italian food. I mean… who doesn’t? One of my favorite Italian dishes is chicken parmesan. But, with things being so chaotic around the house right now, I thought it would be best if I could find a way to enjoy chicken parmesan as quickly and easily as possible. Chicken Parmesan Dip it is!

This Chicken Parmesan Dip has all the pieces and parts of a chicken parmesan, but is put together in the form of a perfectly dipable dish! Cooked chicken, marinara, ricotta, mozzarella… and of course, parmesan! After all, you can’t have chicken parmesan without the parmesan…

Skinny Creamy White Chicken Chili

November 2, 2019 Amanda Plott

It suddenly got freaking cold here, y’all! Really, for the past few days it’s been unseasonably cold. I think I heard that Austin had the coldest Halloween that we’ve had in 30 years or something? That’s pretty incredible. Despite the cold, we still had a lot of fun. And you’ll never find me complaining about it being a little chilly. (Pun intended.)

When it’s cold out, that means I can use my oven AND I get to make hearty stews, soups, and of course… chili! That’s where this Skinny Creamy White Chicken Chili comes in. It’s made DAIRY FREE. Yep, you heard right, a creamy chili with NO cream…

Fresh Turkey Salad

October 9, 2019 Amanda Plott

I’ve decided to call this ‘fresh’ turkey salad because I loaded it up with plenty of fresh fruits and veggies. No nuts. No dried fruits. Fresh, fresh, FRESH! I borrowed the base of this recipe from my Skinny ‘Leftover’ Turkey Salad, and made just a few tweaks and adjustments to get it to something that was a little more… fresh!

And now for the speech! Turkey salad as in chicken salad. Not a salad with chicken or turkey on it. But, rather a ‘salad’ that’s made up WITH turkey and chicken. The sort of thing you can smear on some toast for a turkey salad sandwich, or load on top of crackers…

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!…
