Turkey Wrapped BLT

June 11, 2023 Amanda Plott

If you're looking for a low-carb and gluten-free lunch option, then you're in for a treat with this turkey wrapped BLT. Instead of using bread, use turkey slices as a wrap for the bacon, lettuce, and tomato filling.

This twist on the classic BLT is not only healthier, but it's also just as satisfying. The savory and salty flavor of turkey pairs perfectly well with the crisp lettuce and juicy tomato, while the smoky bacon adds a rich flavor to the mix. This meal is easy to prepare and make-ahead, which makes it convenient for those who are busy but still want something delicious and nutritious for lunch…

Bacon, Chive & Cheddar Eggs in Clouds

June 7, 2023 Amanda Plott

Weekends are for sleeping in, having fun, and experiments in the kitchen. While my mom has been here visiting me, we've been having a lot of fun taking turns with playing around in the kitchen for breakfast in the mornings. And today was no different. We've discussed 'eggs in clouds' a few times before, but today was the day!

It's a pretty simple little breakfast that looks far more impressive than it really is with its handful of basic and minimal ingredients...

Mango Pineapple Chamoy Popsicles

May 22, 2023 Amanda Plott

This is the last week of school here and whether we like it or not the hotter weather is coming! I’m already preparing by making these Mango Pineapple Chamoy Popsicles! I’ve made some mango chili popsicles in the past, but I wanted these to have a bit more spice and some chamoy flavor too!

Although I didn’t do it today, you could add a little something something to these to spike them too. But, for today I kept mine clean. The chunks of fresh pineapple and mango in here along with the Tajin are perfection. Plus, I love that I get to control how much heat goes into these things too…

Crispy Roasted Beans & Whipped Feta

May 16, 2023 Amanda Plott

This Crispy Roasted Beans & Whipped Feta is possibly my new favorite appetizer or snack that I’ve come across in a good long while. No only are the beans seasoned up just right, the whipped feta is on point. The two together make for one of the most tasty snacks there is. I used Cannelini beans here, but butter beans, lava beans, or any large white bean will work here. The larger the bean the better for the dipping.

When I say that the beans are seasoned well, I mean they are seasoned well. There is a lot of garlic and onion per capita here. And the fresh rosemary being baked with them? Mm-mm! You can’t go wrong here…
