Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pesto Wrap

June 5, 2020 Amanda Plott

If you’re looking for some lunch time inspiration, here you go! This Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pesto Wrap is super quick and easy to make with just a handful in ingredients and a ton of flavor. When I got my hands on the sun-dried tomato tortilla wraps, I thought it would be fun to use them to make a ‘caprese style’ twist on a wrap with them.

So I loaded them up with two different kinds of pesto, chicken, bacon, mozzarella, and baby spinach. That’s pretty much all there is to it! Roll it all up together and you’ve got one of the easiest and most tasty wraps you’ll ever come across.

I served my wraps with baked chips and some fresh veggies, but some fruit, soup, or even a salad would also be nice sides here.

If you’re making this head of time as a meal prep, there isn’t much you need to do any differently. Store in an air-tight container for up to 3-5 days until ready to enjoy.

Lemon Pudding Cake

May 29, 2020 Amanda Plott

If you’ve never had a lemon pudding cake, you don’t know what you’re missing. It’s basically a lemon cobbler; delicious scratch made lemon pudding as the base with a homemade lemon cake batter on top that bakes to a gooey lemon dessert that is as sweet as it is sassy.

I lightened this tasty lemon treat up by subbing a lot of the sugar for natural sweetener. I like to use a cup-for-cup stevia based sweetener, but any sort you favor should work just fine. The unsweetened almond milk is also a good milk alternative for baking since it saves calories and comes out tasting great…

For a lot of us, Summer has come (or will come) early this year. Especially if you have kiddos! While Summer is officially a couple of months off still, I thought I’d get things heading in that direction. I mean… it’s already in the high 80’s here on most days. It’s been perfect weather for grilling!

With it being warm out, I wanted to make use of the grill, but also have something nice, cool, and refreshing on the plate. That’s where this Tex-Mex Pico De Gallo Grilled Chicken comes into play. I got my hands on some Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce and knew it would make the perfect marinated for chicken…

Skinny Summer Strawberry Scones

It may not be summer time just yet, but I think we could all use some sunshine and warmth right now in our lives. So, I thought I would go ahead and make these Skinny Summer Strawberry Scones and update the photography in the process.

I've made scones a handful of times in the past few years, and while it took a few attempts at first I’ve gotten the process of making these scones down well enough. The recipe is surprisingly similar to that for Irish Soda Bread…

Chicken Piccata

March 3, 2020 Amanda Plott

Let’s face it. Italian food is probably one of everyones favorites. And chicken piccata is one of the staples of Italian food. The tartness of lemon with the salt of capers all come together with crisped cooked chicken breast that’s perfect to be served over a bed of pasta or even all on it’s own. Either way, it’s the star of the show!

This chicken piccata is made without any cream. That’s right. The cream in chicken piccata is completely unneeded. You can come out of it with less calories while still having a delicious creamy sauce for your chicken…

Strawberry Champagne Vinaigrette

February 1, 2020 Amanda Plott

With Valentine’s Day on the horizon, I thought it would be fun (and delicious) to make a pink salad dressing. Not just any dressing though, something lightened up and perfect as we come into the end of the cold winter months. Maybe using spring inspired flavors will inspire the warmer weather!

So what makes the dressing pink? Strawberries of course! Strawberries are the base of this vinaigrette, and to be honest, they’re the secret to this dressing as well. The large amount of strawberries used here is what keeps this vinaigrette lightened up and low in calories…
