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 MoreWeekends are for being lazy, and there is truly no more of a lazy way to cook steel cut oats than inside of a pressure cooker. I got my instant pot back for my birthday I think and I am absolutely in love with it. Not only does it work as a pressure cooker, but also as a slow cooker; which saves me valuable cabinet space.
So, while I'm slumming around still in my PJs today I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to make some Instant Pot Steel-Cut Oatmeal for breakfast... around noon. That's still technically brunch, right?
Read MoreI've been wanting to make African Peanut Stew for a good long while now and since I'm soaking up every last drop of the 'cool' weather here in Texas, I thought there would be no better time than now. This stew is hearty. I'm talking... stick to your ribs and fill you up completely. It's a little bit of all the best things. Savory, sweet, spicy, salty, soft, crunchy...
Honestly, I really wasn't sure how I would feel about peanuts in a stew. It's never been something I thought of as being the main component in dinner. But, I was thoroughly impressed with how good it was. ...To the point, that I think this may go into my dinner rotation!...
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...
