Skinny Three Layer Confetti Dip

January 7, 2019 Amanda Plott

With Super Bowl just around the corner, it’s high time to start getting down with those gamely inspired recipes! Gameday food is some of the BEST food. But, when you’re trying to stick to your New Year’s resolutions, it can be a challenge to find a balance between the two! Being as I’m a huge fan of a decent gameday spread, I know exactly what to do.

As part of my New Year’s resolutions, I’m choosing to eat a lot more veggies. Fresh veggies. That’s why I decided to make this DELICIOUS and nutritious triple layer dip. It’s three layers of yummy stuff that you and I both can feel good about serving and enjoying!…

Skinny Leftover Turkey & Mushroom Pot Pie

January 5, 2019 Amanda Plott

Can you believe it…? I STILL have meat in my freezer that’s leftover from Christmas, y’all! The turkey has now OFFICIALLY been all used up. (Though there is still plenty of ham socked away. - Someone buy me a deep freezer please and stop this madness!) With all this meat still taking over my freezer, I’m still working on coming up with delicious ways to use it all up.

So far… it’s been in a quiche, which is one of my favorite ways to use up leftovers. Another fun way is… pot pie! Even though I’m a southern girl, I don’t think I ever had a homemade pot pie. And now that I’m an adult and sticking with this healthier lifestyle, this Skinny Leftover Turkey & Mushroom Pot Pie is as close as we’re going to get!…

Vegan Black-Eyed Pea Salad

January 3, 2019 Amanda Plott

Who the hell ever said that black-eyed peas had to just be a New Year’s day thing? Yes, I’m deliberately posting this recipe AFTER the first of the year to be a bit of a rebel.

Every year in my house, it’s the same old debate. What do we do with black-eyed peas to make them more edible. Let’s face it, black-eyed peas earned their nickname ‘dirt peas’ for a reason. Over the years, I’d like to think that I’ve come up with a few clever ways.

This year though, with a cold running rampant through the house… something FRESH and light sounded like what we all needed…

Dark Chocolate Covered Rosé Soaked Strawberries

December 30, 2018 Amanda Plott

With New Year’s Even just around the corner, I was thinking there would be no better time than now to make some Rosé soaked strawberries. By why stop there? I decided the best thing to do was to cover those things in some dark chocolate!

This is how adults do ‘jello shots’ right?

I like to think that it’s a more elegant way to indulge anyway!…

Western Omelette Crustless Quiche

December 28, 2018 Amanda Plott

Now that the holidays are coming to a close for the year, I know that we’ve all got our fair share of leftover turkey and/or ham in our freezers. This is one of my FAVORITE times of year for this VERY reason. And considering there was a little bit of a communication failure over Christmas Eve and Christmas dinner, I’ve ended up with a BUNCH of leftovers.

You don’t see me complaining about that though. I love to make leftover rewind recipes, especially with leftover holiday meats. They always make for a super favorable, easy, and amazing second recipe. So what’s the first thing that comes to mind with leftovers? Casseroles? Soups? For me, it’s quiche!…
