Whole Wheat Vegan Biscuits

November 8, 2019 Amanda Plott

Baby it’s cold outside…

And I need some biscuits in my life! Now, I’ve made some simple biscuits in the past, like my 3 ingredient biscuits or even these low carb ones that I paired with gravy. Today though, I wanted to stay simple and have some biscuits on hand for breakfast sandwiches this week. I didn’t want just any old biscuit though, I wanted them to be whole wheat this time around!

I took some of the basics from my 3 ingredient biscuits and made the needed adjustments to turn them into whole wheat biscuits instead. Of course the thing that made the ‘ 3 ingredient’ version was the self-rising flour…

Broccoli & Cheese Tater Tot Breakfast Bake

November 4, 2019 Amanda Plott

As the Holidays draw ever closer, I’m always inclined to start thinking about casseroles. Especially when it comes to breakfast. I like to have something I can toss together quickly (or even the night before) so that I can serve up a group of people without breaking a sweat.

And trust me when I say that I’ve made my fair share of breakfast casseroles in the past.

This Broccoli & Cheese Tater Tot Breakfast Bake is based off of one that I made about a year ago. I’ve taken it a step further, lightening it even more, and using some veggie loaded tater tots instead of plain-jane traditional ones…

Baked Tortilla Chips

October 30, 2019 Amanda Plott

Being a Texan means that chips and salsa are basically served with every meal It’s a staple snack that can be found in just about any home and perfectly fits the bill. Whether is breakfast, lunch, or dinner! That being said, most store-bought chips out there are a lot of the same. Lots of salt and oil involved.

Recently I’ve found that making my own tortilla chips is not only crazy easy, it’s also WAY better for you. They’re made with just 2 ingredients and are baked. Meaning hardly any oil and YOU get to control the seasoning and salt that goes into them!…

Skinny Baked 'Overnight' Vanilla Chai Oatmeal

October 28, 2019 Amanda Plott

This Skinny Baked 'Overnight' Vanilla Chai Oatmeal is based off of my Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal, but made with plenty of added chai spice! The spice blend is homemade with spices that you likely already have on hand. It’s quick and easy to put together in the evening to have ready to go for baking up first thing in the morning.

Unlike a ‘bowl of oatmeal’ baked oatmeal is a bit more akin to cake. It’s fluffy and is generally cut or scooped to be served in a bowl where it’s topped with milk and any fresh fruits desired. Since this oatmeal likes to soak overnight, that makes this a great Sunday night breakfast to put together and have ready to go to toss in the oven on Monday for a weeks worth (plus) of breakfast!…

Instant Pot Apple Cider

October 25, 2019 Amanda Plott

Whohooooo. It is coooold out today, y’all. It is cold. Windy. And I am in the process of recovering from a cold. Current state? My body needs all the warm things. Thankfully, I had this Instant Pot Apple Cider on my list to make this week. And can I just say, it really really hit the spot.

There isn’t much that can top a homemade mug of spiced apple cider soothe a sore throat. Especially while we’re in the throes of Fall season.

To be pretty honest, I didn’t think making homemade apple cider would be this easy. Toss everything into a pressure cooker and in 15 minutes you’ve got the makings of apple cider…

Overnight Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal

It’s almost the weekend and that means it’s time for some meal prepping! This Overnight Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal is a great way to get that pumpkin spice goodness of Fall in there for breakfast with minimal effort. And I do mean very minimal.

These oats are mixed together with pumpkin purée, spices, milk and some greek yogurt to create the perfect breakfast bite to grab-and-go out the door come the busy week ahead. It’ll fill you up and keep you going all the way through to lunch time!…
