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!…

Roasted Cauliflower Bacon & 3 Cheese Omelettata

January 10, 2018 Amanda Plott
roasted-cauliflower-omelettata7.jpg

Somehow last night ended up being an impromptu wine and cheese night. I think it's because I needed a good excuse to crack open a nice bottle of red. Long story short, I woke up this morning to a fridge stocked with leftover cheeses. With having 'sweet' for breakfast for a few days now, I decided it was time to switch it up and make a nice savory bite for myself.

Since I also had some homemade pesto leftover, I thought the cheese and the pesto would be a great pair to make an Omelettata with. And Omelettata? Well, it's not quite an omelet and not quite a frittata. It's somewhere in the blissful middle of the two...

Fall Harvest Salad with Pesto Vinaigrette

October 9, 2017 Amanda Plott

Holy moly! It's been a busy weekend over here. I'm ready for the monotony of a Monday. For sure. It's still pretty warm here in Texas, so while the weather is working on slowly cooling off, I'm working on salads still over here.

Of course, I still need to get my fix of Fall inspired veggies. So... I decided to load this salad up with plenty of Fall-friendly veg. I started this salad off with a base of baby spinach. It's one of my most favorite salad starters, and I think that's because it's such a versatile and nutritional green...

Avocado Caprese Omelettata

May 15, 2017 Amanda Plott
caprese-omlettata4.jpg

Have you heard me talk about the omlettata before? Surely you have. I've fallen in love with them. They are a perfectly easy and quick way to eat a healthy breakfast. I should know. I'm right smack dab in the middle of the 'busy season' around here. And by that I mean... the end of school, dance recital, and birthdays/anniversaries galore. (Happy Anniversary to my parents and also my parents-in-law!)

There's a lot of YAY going on, but also a lot of meltdowns (and I don't just mean with my 7 year old! Hah!) Anyway! I've been lacking a bit in the breakfast department and I had some local eggs in the fridge that had to be used up soon, so... I thought a new omlettata would be the way to go...

Roasted Butternut Squash & Chickpea Salad with Pesto

March 9, 2017 Amanda Plott

It's this wonderful time of year where I'm starting to see more and more fresh 'spring' vegetables coming into the produce department; which always excites me. Especially when there's still plenty of winter squash to be had. I love to take seasonal produce and mix them together as the seasons start to turn from one to another. It always gives you something interesting and exciting.

This Roasted Butternut Squash & Chickpea Salad is the perfect blend of winter and spring coming together for a wonderful bite. The butternut squash is what's coming in here from winter, while the pesto and fresh baby spinach and pop of lemon are a sure sign of spring approaching...

Spinach & Artichoke Ravioli en Brodo

January 9, 2017 Amanda Plott

Thank you Buitoni for sponsoring this post. Check out Buitoni's no GMO, clean label, vegetable-infused pastas and sauces to create a dinnertime experience everyone will enjoy.

Almost three years ago I made this wonderful Tortellini en Brodo that was amazing and my whole family loved it. Yes, even my picky little first grader. Sometimes the most simple meals are the ones that my family and I adore the most. ...Though for different reasons, of course. I enjoy the simple recipes because I spend less time in the kitchen while my family enjoys them for their distinct and fresh flavors.

This Spinach & Artichoke Ravioli en Brodo was definitely inspired by that one from a few years ago, but it is even more simple with only 6 ingredients and yet just as much flavor (if not more!) This is a light soup that still somehow manages to be rather hearty. Those big beautiful green ravioli soak up that wonderful broth and all of the flavors that go along with it...
