Skinny Truffle Deviled Eggs

November 16, 2019 Amanda Plott

With the Holidays coming up quickly, I like to get a few fun appetizers in mind ahead of time. Deviled eggs are one of my staple snacks just because most people enjoy them, they're quick and easy to make, and they can be pretty impressive when you put a twist on the very classic and simple egg.

I’ve made a lot of deviled eggs in the past. Everything eggs, bacon & cheddar eggs, bloody mary eggs, jalapeño popper eggs, and even buffalo deviled eggs! Today I wanted to keep things simple with these deviled eggs while also elevating them, and truffle seemed like the best way to do that!…

Protein Packed Cottage Cheese & Spinach Omelette

If you’re looking for a simple and easy to make breakfast that also happens to be guilt-free, look no further! This Protein Packed Cottage Cheese & Spinach Omelette is where it’s at. One pan and a handful of ingredients is all you need to achieve breakfast bliss.

This is pretty much the breakfast of champions. A perfectly lightened up omelette that’s loaded up with as much protein as one could manage to get in a meatless meal. There’s plenty of spinach in there too, giving a boost to the veggie intake!…

Crustless Quiche (Instant Pot)

So, I’ve had and made my fair share of egg bites in the instant pot, right? That got me to thinking… If I can make egg bites in the instant pot, why can’t I make a quiche in it? Well, as it turns out, you surely can! This quiche is packed with protein and is low in carbs. Plus, it’s keto-friendly and delicious!

This quiche cooks a bit more quickly in the instant pot than it would in the oven. It also comes out with a more ‘fluffy’ texture. Something more akin to an egg bite than a dense quiche…

Italian Breakfast Bake

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, they say. And I’d tend to agree. There is a reason they call it ‘breakfast’ too. The intention is to ‘break the fast’ of not eating overnight while you sleep. With being in the middle of an end of summer heat wave in Texas, I am avoiding my oven like the plague. The only time I’ll even consider using it is first thing in the morning before the heat of the day.

It’s been a while since I had a hot breakfast, so I figured it was about time to tempt the fate of the oven and heat and whip up a nice warm breakfast to enjoy. Breakfast casseroles are some of my favorite breakfast bites because it’s a ‘one and done’ situation. Meal prep at it’s finest. And this Italian Breakfast Bake is mmm-mmm good! Low carb, gluten free, and keto friendly…

Cobb Skewers

Well, all of us girls made it through camping and toobing this weekend. Three of us managed to put an 8 person tent up in all of 15 minutes. I guess the 100 degree heat and blazing Texas sun is one of the best motivators there is. Even being home and in the air conditioned house… I’m still craving cold foods.

These cute little Cobb Skewers have been my cure-all today. They’re cold, crisp, and a great way to enjoy a cobb salad as an appetizer or snack. They’re easy to put together and look pretty impressive. It’s a more ‘fancy-pants’ way to serve a salad as an appetizer anyway…

Skinny Buffalo Chicken Lunchbox

July 24, 2019 Amanda Plott

This is a short and not so sweet one today. Not sweet at all. In fact, it’s rather spicy! As we’re getting closer to the start of the school year, I’m doing my best to come up with fun and delicious lunchbox ideas for parents and kids alike. This Skinny Buffalo Chicken Lunchbox is one of my newest favorites.

With being quick and easy to make, this low carb, gluten-free, keto friendly lunch is a real winner, winner, chicken… lunch. I loaded this lunchbox up with plenty of fresh veggies and just as much buffalo chicken. And don’t think for a second that I left out the blue cheese or ranch…
