Rice Cake Pizza

October 14, 2023 Amanda Plott

Looking to satisfy your pizza cravings but want to try something new? Look no further than Rice Cake Pizza! This innovative lightened up gluten-free twist on a classic favorite. What makes Rice Cake Pizza so unique and exciting is its use of rice cakes as the crust. These chewy, gluten-free and low-calorie cakes provide the perfect base for a healthy and flavorful little pizza.

You can top this pizza off with a variety topping options, but today I went very traditional with a pepperoni. To keep it lightened up though, I used turkey pepperoni which is just as good as regular pepperoni and I promise you won’t be able to tell the difference…

September 27, 2023 Amanda Plott

These Air Fryer Chicken Nuggets are easy to prepare and bursting with flavor as crispy bites of perfection have become a favorite among health-conscious individuals who are looking for a guilt-free twist on a classic dish. Made with chicken breast and blended with seasonings, these nuggets offer a delightful balance of texture and taste that’s as close to fast food as you can get while still being better-for-you.

Skinny Pimento Cheese

September 2, 2023 Amanda Plott

I'm a Texas girl and I have a natural love for pimento cheese.​ I think it's in our veins down here. A staple in our fridge and our lives.

I know from personal experiences that a lot of people in the northern states cannot buy this in the store. Honestly, I was shocked when my grandmother, a Texan born and raised, told me that she's never seen pimento cheese in any grocery store in Oregon (where she now lives.) And even more shocked when someone else from the north had no idea what I was talking about. "Oh, like... that has olives in it?" - No! That's pimento loaf! Totally different…

Monte Cristo Monkey Bread

July 26, 2023 Amanda Plott

If you're looking to satisfy your cravings for something both savory and sweet, look no further than the enchanting Monte Cristo Monkey Bread. This unique treat is a delightful twist on the classic sweet brunch item, taking inspiration from the renowned Monte Cristo sandwich. Fluffy pieces of dough, irresistibly soft and tender, enveloped in a tantalizing mixture of ham, turkey, cheese, and Dijon mustard. This heavenly concoction creates a harmonious balance between savory and sweet, tickling your taste buds in all the right ways.

As this delightful creation finds its way into the oven, something magical begins to happen. The cheese, carefully integrated into the dough, starts to melt, transforming into a pool of gooey goodness. Each bite becomes a treasure trove, as the flavors of the ham and cheese intertwine, creating a symphony of flavors that dance upon your palate…

California Cottage Cheese Bowl

June 28, 2023 Amanda Plott

What can I say? When I originally posted this tasty little lunch, I hadn't  had cottage cheese in a long time. In fact... I couldn't even remember when the last time was that I had it! These days though? It's a pretty regular fridge staple for me. And it all started right here with this quick and easy recipe!

Cottage cheese had my mind ever since my mom mentioned it a few weeks before when she was trying to think of a way to make the Skinny PB&J Parfait even lighter. We didn't get very far with the notion since... I'm not a huge fan of sweetness with my cottage cheese for whatever reason. I'm still not onboard with that...

Turkey Wrapped BLT

June 11, 2023 Amanda Plott

If you're looking for a low-carb and gluten-free lunch option, then you're in for a treat with this turkey wrapped BLT. Instead of using bread, use turkey slices as a wrap for the bacon, lettuce, and tomato filling.

This twist on the classic BLT is not only healthier, but it's also just as satisfying. The savory and salty flavor of turkey pairs perfectly well with the crisp lettuce and juicy tomato, while the smoky bacon adds a rich flavor to the mix. This meal is easy to prepare and make-ahead, which makes it convenient for those who are busy but still want something delicious and nutritious for lunch…
