Skinny Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls

February 5, 2018 Amanda Plott

Can 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...

Instant Pot Steel-Cut Oatmeal

January 27, 2018 Amanda Plott

Weekends 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?

Healthified Chili Con Carne

Even though I originally made this recipe back in 2014 - I thought after we made it this past weekend that it needed an update! The recipe is the same-same, only updated instructions, and images.

So, here's the original post as it was:

My mom has this infamous chili recipe that she's made for many years now. It's something that the whole family can agree on. We all love it. It always became a staple in the family's weekly meal plan during the cooler winter months.

I've wanted to post the recipe for a long while now, well pretty much ever since I started all this... but, it just never came to be for one reason or another. In fact, I never even had the recipe in my hot little hand until about a week ago...

Being a mom during the holidays isn’t just busy… it’s STRESSFUL. Somewhere between all the shopping, cooking, and party planning, the magic of the Holidays can be lost. No one wants to have a blue Christmas. That's why I've brightened things up and made the holidays fun again with this Spiked Lemon Pepper Chicken Salad.

This chicken salad is bright, bold and full of flavor. It makes a great grab-and-go snack or part of a meal during this busy time of year and is even better as a holiday party appetizer. It's an easy, quick-to-toss-together, nosh-worthy bite...

Slow Cooker Breakfast Casserole

November 22, 2017 Amanda Plott

It's no secret that one of my favorite things about the holidays is cooking for my loved ones. As crazy and manic as it can get in my tiny little kitchen; there is nowhere else in the world that I would rather be. And that's the truth.

This Slow Cooker Breakfast Casserole is an old family favorite, and really more of a tradition now at this point. It started some years back around one of the major holidays when I had a house full of people and a bunch of hungry bellies to feed in the morning. I knew that I wasn't going to have much time in the morning, but wanted to have a hot delicious breakfast ready and waiting. That's where the slow cooker comes in!...

Instant Pot Asian Sweet Chili Chicken

September 20, 2017 Amanda Plott

If you haven't yet jumped onto the pressure cooker band wagon, you definitely should as soon as you can! I got mine back for my birthday and I haven't looked back. One of the things that I love the most about it is that it's multi-functional as a pressure cooker, crock pot, and even for a quick sauté. This makes it the perfect 'one pot' meal maker.

For a few weeks now, I've been working on perfecting this Asian Sweet Chili Chicken recipe. The first time I made it - it was really good. But, it wasn't quite where I wanted it to be. So, with a few more tweaks I gave it another go or two until I had it on point...
