Low-Carb Spinach & Mushroom Egg Bites (Keto-Friendly!)

May 26, 2018 Amanda Plott

I've been playing around with egg bites for a while now, and I've come up with a few fun flavors to change it up from week to week. Yes, homemade egg bites are generally in my personal regular rotation for one of my usual breakfast options. They are ridiculously easy to make, taste great, and are perfect for meal prepping. Did I mention they're also low-carb, gluten-free, and keto-friendly? Yep! All that too.

This time around, I decided to go with a spinach and mushroom style egg bite. To be honest, I wasn't too sure how well they would turn out since both spinach and mushrooms tend to have a pretty high amount of water in them. But, it ended up working out super well!…

Portobello Pizzas

April 4, 2018 Amanda Plott

We are a houseful of pizza fiends, y'all. I'm pretty sure that we collectively eat pizza in some form or another at least once a week. My almost 8 year old nearly demands it. Pizza has always and will always be a part of our regular rotation here. So, sometimes I have to get pretty creative when it comes to my pizza.

What can I say? I just don't need all those carbs at this point in my life. My body is craving veggies. All the veggies too. This time around, I decided to try my hand at a portobello crusted pizza. And I must say... I was not at all disappointed!...

Breakfast Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

November 22, 2016 Amanda Plott

It's just a couple of days before Thanksgiving and I'm running around like a mad woman to get things done. This year we're doing things a bit different... getting the family the heck outta here for some untraditional turkey day glamping (that's camping in a glamorous manner.) I'll be the first to admit that God didn't build me in a manner that would suffice actual 'camping'. I enjoy hot showers, beds, central air, and food far too much to be the outdoorsy type.

Glamping though? Sign. Me. Up!

I got a small cabin in the woods rented out for a couple of days and I am all about this fancy-pants version of camping. Awe-SOME. While I'm getting myself in order and ready to head out on the road, I can't neglect breakfast this week. So, I'm hot on the tails of these AMAZING Breakfast Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms! Seriously. This is one of the best breakfasts I've concocted in a good while...

Hoisin Marinated Tofu in Miso Ramen

October 3, 2015 Amanda Plott

I can see and feel the change in the seasons rolling through. Finally, there's some relief from the hot summer days as we get cooler weather here in Texas. Whoohoo! I think the high here today is only 88 degrees F. In honor of the cooler weather, I thought it would be nice to make a warm pot of ramen soup.

Ramen soup can often come in many shapes and forms. Usually it involves Chinese noodles, some sort of broth, and an assortment of vegetables. Today I wanted to keep my soup meatless, loaded with vegetables, and piled up with seared tofu...

Skinny Spinach & Sundried Tomato Omelette

May 14, 2015 Amanda Plott

This yummy vegetarian and gluten-free omelette is a great thing to wake up to. Seriously, I can't think of much else that I'd rather wake up to. I promise that you won't miss any meat here either, and as an added bonus it's still pretty packed with protein and good-for-you things; spinach, tomato, and even some mushrooms!

Breakfast has been a tricky meal for me lately. Somewhere between work and being a mommy, it's one of the last things that I happen to think about. And often by the time I have the time to make breakfast for myself... it's time for lunch!

I guess that's why I'm more of a brunch person.

That and brunch also comes with a mimosa or bloody mary!...
