Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Bell Peppers

May 1, 2023 Amanda Plott

These Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Bell Peppers are where it’s at! They’re low carb and gluten free while being absolutely delicious and easy to make too. If you love buffalo chicken, then these are the stuffed peppers for you. I served mine with a side of celery and carrots with some light blue cheese dip, but it would also be good with some rice or even a side salad.

I lightened these peppers up by swapping in some greek yogurt and light blue cheese dressing in place of mayo and sour cream. I also used reduced fat cheeses and boneless skinless chicken breast that I cooked up in my instant pot and shredded myself. But, store bought or left over chicken will work too!…

Spinach & Strawberry Salad

March 27, 2023 Amanda Plott

Yes, I'm a huge salad fan. I love all the veggies and different ways to dress up your leafy greens with one dressing or another. Plus, there's just something refreshing about indulging in a crisp cool salad when it's upwards of 80... 90... 100 degrees. Which we’ve already gone over 80 here!

So I guess what I'm saying is... be prepared for the montage of salad recipes that are sure to come this way through the next few months. Strawberry and spinach salad is actually one of my old favorites. I think it was one of the first salads that I ever had feta cheese on. It could even be when I fell in love with feta cheese…

One-Pot Chicken Cordon Bleu Soup

April 6, 2020 Amanda Plott

During hard times, sometimes you just need some good old-fashioned comfort food. I mean… this soup isn’t really old-fashioned, but Chicken Cordon Bleu is an older dish. Today I decided to give Chicken Cordon Bleu a bit of a twist and turned it into the soup. Yep, that’s right… everything you love about Chicken Cordon Bleu in a pot of soup. Right down to the dijon!…

Buffalo Chicken Nachos & Blue Cheese Sauce

August 10, 2018 Amanda Plott

I... love buffalo chicken. I love it so much that I think I have a well rounded plethora of things I've made in the past. Even so much that I decided I had to take a break from it for a while before I burned every (including myself) out on it.

Being as it's been a hot minute since I've done anything with buffalo flavors, and it's been on my mind a lot, I thought it was time to go and get myself a shiny new bottle of the old favorite. Since I've done my fair share with buffalo sauce in the past, I knew this time around I wanted to do something a bit different. Nachos. ...With - wait for it - ... ... bleu cheese sauce…

Grilled Market Salad & Zesty Dressing (Chick-Fil-A Copy Cat)

February 18, 2017 Amanda Plott

So, I was telling my mom about one of my all time favorite salads at a pretty well known fast-food chain the other day when she was looking for some quick lunch options. Anytime the family wants to 'be bad' and have chicken nuggets at this place, I always tend to opt for their Grilled Market Salad. It's a really large hearty salad that's extremely filling and easily could be turned into two meals rather than just one.

That discussion got me to thinking about the salad, how good it is, and how simple it is too. Surely there had to be a way to make it myself! The hardest part would be the zesty apple cider vinaigrette. Thankfully, I found a good starting place and made a few more tweaks to that to get exactly what I was looking for after reading the ingredients on the actual dressing packet...

Classic Cobb Salad

January 21, 2017 Amanda Plott

It's no secret that this week has been kicking my tail, though more so in a humorous way at this point. I couldn't even list out the amount of things that have gone wrong because it's almost been everything that I've been a part of or a hand in. I'm pushing past it though, and rocking it out now that it's the weekend.

Next week will be better because it just has to be.

Food has been my savior this week. There have been few disasters that I've had in the kitchen, with a flop of a recipe and a broken egg splat on my kitchen floor, but still nearly everything has come out tasting amazing. Even if it's not exactly what I had planned out on my menu...
