Vegetarian Cheeseburger Salad

May 13, 2021 Amanda Plott

I don’t know. Sometimes you just can’t decide between things. Today I wanted a cheeseburger. Also a salad. Also something meatless. What does that mean? Time for a Vegetarian Cheeseburger Salad! I’ve made a few renditions of a burger bowl/salad before. Some with meat. Some without. This one has to be one of my favorites.

It’s a fun combination of three things that I absolutely adore. Less meat. More veggies. And crazy easy! this dinner takes well under 30 minutes to make and it’s something that everyone at the dinner table is sure to love. Meat-eater or no…

Strawberry Pop-Tart Overnight Oats

May 10, 2021 Amanda Plott

Just a few more weeks and my kiddo will be out for summer. And these last few weeks are always super DUPER busy. In order to avoid skipping out on breakfast in the morning, I like to have a few things on hand that I can grab-and-go eat with no excuses and no guilt. That’s where these Strawberry Pop-Tart Overnight Oats come into play.

Overnight oats are tasty, easy to make, and an excellent thing to meal prep. The oats themselves are left overnight in a mixture of almond milk, greek yogurt, some sweetener, and real-deal cake batter flavor. They’re also stuffed full of strawberry goodness and then topped off with a drizzle of frosting and even rainbow sprinkles!…

Craving pizza but tired of the same old thing? Try this Pizza Monkey Bread! It’s a fun and easy savory twist on monkey bread that turns pizza into a bite sized dipper that the whole family is sure to love. One of the best parts is that it’s a great way to mix things up on pizza night to have something for everyone without having to make or bake several different kinds of pizza.

I did mine with half having some olives and mushrooms while the other half was chopped up turkey pepperoni and mushroom. So everyone got something they wanted. It’s great for family game night or for kiddos at a sleepover once that becomes a thing again!..

Cookies just don’t get more simple than this. Not only is this Oatmeal Raisin Skillet Cookie baked in a skillet, it’s whipped up all in one bowl. That means a whole lot less dirty dishes to deal with, and a whole lot more time to spend enjoying this delicious cookie. And let’s face it, saving time and energy at the end of the school year is VITAL.

This oatmeal cookie has all the goodness of any oatmeal cookie, and none of the guilt. I mean, how can you feel guilty about eating oatmeal and raisins?…

Blondies + Maple Cream Cheese Sauce

April 26, 2021 Amanda Plott

It was my brother’s birthday celebration this past weekend, and it sure was a lot different from how it was last year for sooo many reasons. Thankfully vaccinations are in place and we got to celebrate together once again! In lieu of a cake though, my brother wanted blondies this year which I am totally down for! Don’t get me wrong, I love cake as much as the next girl, but there’s something to be said about a good blondie.

These blondies are my healthified take on the ones that you’ll find at one of those chain restaurants. It was always my most favorite dessert there. What with the warm blondie with white chocolate chips, some vanilla ice cream, and that AMAZING maple cream cheese sauce on top. Mmmm…
