Poblano Chicken Alfredo Dip

June 4, 2023 Amanda Plott

Sometimes in my house we just like to have what we call ‘snacky dinner’, which usually means finger foods of one kind or another. This time around I was feeling chips and dip, but I wanted something with a little bit of a twist to it. That’s where this Poblano Chicken Alfredo Dip comes in. This Poblano Chicken Alfredo Dip is super easy to make and it’s tasty too. It’s where Italian alfredo comes together with the spice of a poblano pepper.

The spice level on this dip varies, depending a lot on how spicy your pepper ends up being. Mine was really tame which is why I ended up also using a little bit of pepper jack cheese too. And even then, it was still pretty mild…

Hot & Sour Soup

September 2, 2020 Amanda Plott

I’ve gotten to where I make veggie sushi about once a week, or at least once every couple of weeks. This Hot & Sour Soup is an easy and delicious side to pair with the sushi. It’s super quick and easy to make all in one pot and it tastes even better than the one you order with take out. What’s even better is that you get to have control over just how hot or sour your soup is in the end.

I have seen a little difference in hot and soup soup out there. This one, to me, is more of a mixture between egg drop and hot and sour. I’m totally fine with that. I love egg drop soup as much as I do hot and sour. But, it is worth noting that you do DROP EGGS into this soup. It can be a scary thought, but I promise it’s easy peasy!…

It’s finally here. We’re down to the finally 7 days before school lets out for the summer for my kiddo and I honestly thing that at this point, I’m more excited than she is. I just want to get through the next few days and have the freedom of summer ahead of us. That being said, I’m also in the throes of getting beach-bum ready. And that means watching what I’m eating and doing all the more.

With my focus on all that, and summer being the season of snacks around here, I decided to make some fun Burger Bites! These Burger Bites are so good too. Perfect for a snack sort of light summer friendly meal or quick appetizer. They start out with a burger meatball paired with all the burger classics; tomato, lettuce, pickle, cheese, and of course a tater tot!…

Skinny Buffalo Chicken Dip

February 1, 2019 Amanda Plott

What can I say? I'm a huuuge fan of buffalo flavored anything.

Okay, not anything... but almost!

I think I eat buffalo something for lunch or dinner every week. ...Yeah, that sounds about right.

This skinny buffalo chicken dip is nothing short of amazing. It's super easy and tastes great. Plus, you can cook it up using the crock pot, oven, or even the stove! No one will ever guess that it's lightened up and only about 100 calories per serving.

I found that I didn't have any complaints in serving this with veggies for dipping and I have some picky palates around me!...
