Healthified 7 Layer Dip

January 18, 2014 Amanda Plott

You know... the term '7 layer dip' always confused me as... I've never actually seen a 7 layer dip with exactly 7 layers. Seriously. Think about it...

Mind boggling, I know.

In any case, this is my healthified take in the traditional party staple dip.

Oh! And don't let the ingredient list scare you away. Most of the items between the tomato layer and the guacamole layer are the same, so there really isn't that much (it just looks intimidating at first.) This is a super easy recipe anyway!...

Verde Taco Chicken Bowls

November 3, 2013 Amanda Plott

This is one of my very favorite crock pot recipes. It's an easy, versatile, and super de{light}ful recipe that is sure to appease the masses. Originally it's made with a red salsa and quite a lot of red spices.

This soup is based on my Healthifed Crock Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup, which has been a favorite among my family for a few years now.

For about a year now, I've been working really hard to have at least one, and usually more like two, vegetarian dishes for dinner every week. We definitely don't eat red meat more than once in seven days and clean eating is something Im striving towards...

Seriously. The pictures don't do these justice!

I was wanting to make enchiladas this week that were vegetarian but had more to them than mere 'cheese'.

Fiesta Pasta Salad & Green Chile Lime Vinaigrette

June 18, 2013 Amanda Plott

This is ridiculously delicious. And it takes little to no time at all to prepare!

I wanted something cold, light, and veggieful to help combat the heat of the summer after a weekend impromptu tubing adventure down the Comal river with my parents and three year old little lady...
