Turkey Bacon Pesto 'Tortilla Trend' Breakfast Wrap

July 7, 2021 Amanda Plott

This morning I decided to take the tortilla wrap trend to the next level with this pesto-goodness loaded breakfast wrap! This tortilla trend has just about a little of everything. Fresh veggies, pesto, cheese, bacon, and of course egg!

It’s delicious and takes just a few minutes to toss together. Plus, being as it’s a tortilla trend, it’s completely portable and makes for the BEST grab-and-go breakfast you can get your hands on. And with just a few simple swaps, this breakfast is completely guilt-free…

Monte Cristo Breakfast Casserole

March 6, 2021 Amanda Plott

I don’t know. I just like to shake things up sometimes by putting two or three things together that I enjoy and hoping that it turns out right. Today? It’s a monte cristo sandwich and a breakfast bake or casserole. Yep. And guess what? It’s pretty damn tasty if I do say so myself. I’ll tell you another thing, after this past week, I deserved a little somethin’ something’ special.

This Monte Cristo Breakfast Casserole takes the cake. Like literally. It’s a monte cristo in the form of a better-for-you ‘strata’ or bake. Eggs. Cheese. Ham. Bread. Dijon. And you add a dab of raspberry preserves at the end and it’s done. And not depending fried or battered. Just good. Tasty. Breakfast…

'Brain' Deviled Eggs

October 16, 2020 Amanda Plott

These deviled eggs are all dressed up for Halloween and ready to go with some pink hue to the filling and a fun little design on top that makes them look like mini brain bites. They’re lightened up, keto friendly, low carb, vegetarian, and gluten-free too! Which makes them even more fun for your Halloween eats and treats this year.

I finished them off with a light dusting of paprika to give just a little more of that creepy 'Halloween ‘brain’ feel. Other than that, these are very standard deviled eggs. Just, you know, guilt-free!…

Even with times as they are, the world keeps on turning and life continues! It seemed like the world slowed down there for a while, but now it feels like the pace of life and living is picking back up again. With the new school year and new way of schooling hot on our heels, I thought it would be a great time to start planning meals that are quick, easy, and made with just a handful of kitchen staples.

I’ve made strata before, but this one is super simple. All you need is 6 ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time. The fridge and the oven do everything else in between! This Easy Cheesy Spinach Strata can be put together ahead of time and then tossed into the oven to bake when you are ready to enjoy it. Plus, it’s one of those meals that’s good for any time of day; breakfast, lunch, or dinner!…

Beef Fajita Crustless Quiche

March 24, 2020 Amanda Plott

As of midnight tonight, we here in Austin (and surrounding areas) are on official lock down with a ‘shelter in place’ until April 13th. This comes after being under a quarantine mandate for a week or so as well. Being as times are tough for everyone, I’m trying to be super creative in how I use up leftovers and the few pantry staples that I have been able to get my hands on.

Being as we had beef fajitas a few nights ago, I had some leftover cooked beef and peppers and onions. So I thought I’d use them up in a quiche because when growing up, quiche was one of the few ways that my family would repurpose leftovers. It’s simple, easy, and delicious every time…

Air Fryer Breakfast Taquito

January 8, 2020 Amanda Plott

Sometimes you just need a nice warm breakfast to get you going in the morning, and recently since I’ve fallen in love with lavash bread, I decided to try my hand at using the lavash to make a breakfast taquito! Being as I tend to be a lot more of a savory breakfast person, rather than a sweet breakfast person, breakfast taquitos are pretty much my jam.

Normally breakfast taquitos are made with flour tortillas, but the lavash bread gives me a lot more bang for my buck, if you know what I mean. (It’s fewer calories and whole wheat!) Even though it’s still pretty chilly outside in the mornings, I figured the air fryer would be a quicker and easier way to get my breakfast taquito hot all the way through…
