Taco Pie (Crustless Quiche)

May 22, 2020 Amanda Plott

I’m not unfamiliar with a crustless quiche. Quiche is one of my most favorite breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner meals! I guess that’s one reason why I love quiche; It’s a meal appropriate at any time of day. Another thing I like about it? It’s a great way to use up leftovers!

This Taco Pie is made with just 7 ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time. The oven does most of the work for you. It’s keto friendly, low carb, and gluten free too. Plus, it’s another excuse to enjoy a taco. How can you say no to that?…

Taco Salad Splits

November 12, 2019 Amanda Plott

It’s cold outside! It’s so cold and frosty that school was delayed, and while it’s cold and not much else to do, my creative juices always kick into high gear. Today I decided to make some cute Taco Salad Splits with the bonus time that I had gifted to me by the weather.

So what’s a Taco Salad Split? Well, it’s a taco take on a banana split. Don’t worry, I’m not making tacos with bananas. But I am making these taco salads LOOK like banana splits.

This is probably the cutest way possible to make and eat your taco salad by the way…

Zucchini Taco Skillet

Sometimes on Taco Tuesday, you just want to try something a little more outside of the box. This Zucchini Taco Skillet is not only delicious, but it’s a one pot wonder and about as guilt free as you can get in the taco department.

This taco skillet starts off with ground beef and some onions. Pretty standard stuff. Then there’s tomatoes, black beans, zucchini, and of course cheese! Plenty of cheese to go around too! For being such a quick and easy dish, it is absolutely packed with flavor…

Skinny Turkey Taco Breakfast Bowl

Good morning sunshine!

Who wants a breakfast that's full of protein, under 300 calories, and gluten-free? This girl! This lean breakfast bowl is full of flavor, easy to toss together, and can even be made ahead for up to 4 days at a time; saving you time and calories.

I know when I was first introduced to the idea of a breakfast bowl with rice and turkey, I was a little skeptical. I've never had rice for breakfast, unless it was in the form of a 'rice cereal' or sweet 'breakfast rice'. It was a notion that I quickly threw out the window this week...

Healthified Taco Salad

April 4, 2019 Amanda Plott

This is a quick and easy salad to toss together for a weeknight meal that everyone in the family can enjoy! Yes, even the little ones. All in all I would say that the meal takes just at 30 minutes to prepare and cook in it's entirety. That's it!

Taco salad is one of those great ways to enjoy all the flavors of a taco without quite so much guilt as you would have if you scarfed down 3-4 regular tacos - shell and all. I've kept this recipe light and yet still very filling and satisfying...

Skinny Taco Seasoning

January 26, 2019 Amanda Plott

Stop! Put the packet of taco seasoning down! I mean it! I don’t know about you, but Taco Tuesday is a REAL thing in my house. We have tacos just about every Tuesday. It’s sort of a thing now and my daughter won’t let me give it up. Not that I would anyway. Tacos are life.

Making my own taco seasoning is one of the very first things I began doing when I started cooking. My mom thought I was nuts. Why in the world would you make your own? But I post the question… Why in the world would you not make your own?…
