Sun-Dried Tomato Biscuits

April 14, 2026 Amanda Plott

If you love biscuits but want to skip the usual butter bomb in favor of something a little brighter and health-conscious, these Sun-Dried Tomato Biscuits are your new weekend ritual. They’re flaky, tender, and studded with chewy bits of sun-dried tomato and the snap of feta cheese. I swapped in a few smarter swaps—fat free feta cheese for the cheese—to give them flavor and a contrast to the tomatoes without sacrificing that comforting biscuit chew. Perfect alongside a bowl of soup, as a savory breakfast sandwich base, or simply torn open and smeared with a dab of gravy…

Greek Spinach & Feta Veggie Patties

February 21, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s meatless. It’s Monday. It’s a meatless Monday! These Greek Spinach & Feta Veggie Patties are as tricky and as tasty as they come. I made these patties with a vegetarian ground plant-based ‘meat’ which looks like, tastes like, and cooks up just like ground beef. I loaded these quarter pound patties up with spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and of course some feta cheese to give a little bit of a Greek or Mediterranean twist.

And let me just tell you, they are so sooo good and end up being perfect on their own or as burgers! This time I decided to serve them up all on their own with some roasted veggies for a well rounded meatless, guilt-free, and delicious dinner…

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.

Pesto & Sun-Dried Tomato Crustless Quiche

November 25, 2018 Amanda Plott
pesto-quiche10.jpg

When in doubt… make a quiche!

This morning I woke up to a rather quiet house after FINALLY managing to get a decent bit of sleep last night. The excitement around the holidays, along with all the coming and going from my house, usually means several restless nights for me. Now with Turkey Day out of the way, I’m ready to get back into a routine for a few weeks.

My fridge once again has space in it and leftovers have all cleared out but now. With a few extra hungry mouths this morning, I started to panic as I rummaged through the pantry, fridge, and freezer for something breakfasty. FAIL. All I had was pieces and parts. Leftover pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, eggs, bacon, cheese… hah! These are the makings for a great quiche!…

Sun-Dried Tomato & Spinach Egg White Bites

April 9, 2018 Amanda Plott
egg-white-bites.jpg

After a long long long and super fun birthday weekend for my daughter, I'm honest in saying that we all are still pretty exhausted today. Before we took off though, I had my fridge well prepared for our return; full well knowing the chaos and tired state of mind that we would be returning to. And with 'sous vide' egg bites still being on trend and easy to make, I thought what better breakfast to have ready!

The last 'sous vide' egg bites that I made were standard and very traditional in a bacon and cheddar flavor, so today I decided to kick it up a notch. These were made with only the egg whites, cheese (of course), sun-dried tomatoes and fresh baby spinach. What goes better with any of those things other than a good helping of feta cheese?...
