I'm the [self-proclaimed] queen of dips. I love them! I love how easy they are to make, how there are always tons of variations and new combos to try, and I am really a fan at how everyone seems to gravitate towards them at any social gathering. I tend to stick with the classic favorites. Like my recipes for: Skinny 7 Layer…
It wouldn't truly be a super bowl series of recipes if I didn't add in a cocktail in here, am I right? I'm a big supporter of happy hour, but I also need to find a balance with cocktails. I love the fruity drinks, but absolutely hate the headache that comes with those fruity drinks. So, to cut back on that…
I'm at a loss for words on how to preface this recipe. It's not even close to healthy (unlike these chocolate peanut butter brownies). BUT, it's good for the soul; and I'm all about those soulful indulgent once-in-a-time recipes. I have full on heart-eye emojis over here just thinking back on this slow cooker chocolate lava cake. It was seriously amazing; and knew, even…
Pizza is hands down my favorite food + biggest weakness. I've found ways to make this dish lighter, like this roasted veggie flatbread pizza and even a skinny breakfast (!!) pizza, so I thought using similar "flatbread" material would allow for a lower calorie + lower carb Super Bowl treat while still having that staple pizza flavor. I love recipes…
Ever since becoming a vegetarian, I've taken to the task of finding delicious alternatives to classic favorites, but these baked cauliflower wings just may take the cake. Since these "wings" are made from baked cauliflower, they take on a similar texture as chicken wings, but at only a quarter of the calories + fat. When I ran a test trial of these recipes, one of my…
You might be sitting here thinking to yourself, "whaaaat, pancakes for Super Bowl food?" But stay with me here! If you think about it, the Super Bowl is an all day event. Last year, we had friends over to our place, and people were showing up around 10:30 in the morning, Budlight + corn hole boards in hand. This year, we're heading…
This year, I'm doing 7 Days of Super Bowl Goodies! That means a new post will be hitting this blog starting Saturday, January 28th - Saturday, February 4th. It's sort of like the 25 Days of Christmas on ABC Family Freeform, but a little better because FOOD. And better yet, Super Bowl party food! Which is the best kind…
With all the success my post for 50 Vegetarian 21 Day Fix Recipes had (seriously, it's my most viewed + popular post to date!) I figured the demand was higher than I thought when it came to veggie friendly 21 day fix approved recipes. Don't get me wrong, I totally get it. The struggle is kind of real…
