Breakfast Pizza

Breakfast Pizza
I hope by now you know that you should at least double or triple your skinny pizza dough for the week if for no other reason to be able to make this breakfast pizza. It has a skinny sausage gravy for the base, crispy potatoes, eggs, cheese and “fried” potato skins on top – #swoon. Please meal prep potatoes for the week too.  They make...

Apple Waffles

Apple Waffles
For some reason I woke up this morning and had a taste for apple waffles.  Best idea evah! Now I have breakfast for the week already worked out – love meal prep Sunday. Making my plate sweet and savory was also the best idea.  I have the apple strawberry sauce in the recipe card below. Because I used oats for most of the flour, the...

Pancake Protein Balls

Pancake Protein Balls
These pancake protein balls are so delicious.  Full of flavor, not too sweet and just the right size ball to put in your mouth. I never really had a sweet tooth.  Well, unless you count my love affair with gummies.  That’s a whole other story. 😂 These balls were ready from beginning to end in literally ten minutes.  This would be a fun project with...

Blueberry Oat Scones

Blueberry Oat Scones
These blueberry oat scones will taste decadent but will not break the calorie bank. A story about scones. My late husband tried a scone at a business meeting in 1989.  He declared it was the worst thing he ever ate. And never ate another one the rest of his life, even after I’ve made DOZENS of scones on this blog. Slightly crunchy on the outside,...

Granola Bars

Granola Bars
I’ve never been able to get granola bars to stay together after baking.  They would look good, I would let them cool and then as soon as I went to cut them, they would crumble. And I would have just made granola.  My friend Nicole from Prevention RD makes an amazing granola, and she uses whipped egg whites as a binder. And that worked! I...

Rainbow Bagels

Rainbow Bagels
These rainbow bagels were a food memory blast from the past.  I used to make rainbow bread for Hannah when she was little. My friend Sam posted about a place in Chicago called Taste of New York that had rainbow bagels, and I thought I needed to make a batch of rainbow bagels with my skinny pizza dough. Best decision evah! Now, this is a...

Elvis Pancakes

Elvis Pancakes
I am calling these Elvis pancakes because they have bananas, peanut butter AND bacon.  #swoon In 2017, I got a message from Premier Protein asking me if I wanted to work with them.   What?! I literally thought I had finally made it in the blogging world – someone actually wanted to work with me!  And not just in free product!  In case you want to...

Overnight Quinoa Oats

Overnight Quinoa Oats
Overnight Quinoa Oats Wow is all I can say about these overnight quinoa oats.  I never thought of doing that before but I picked up a bag of quinoa over the weekend with no idea for it. A few google searches later and I saw quinoa as overnight oats.  Huh.  I wasn’t sure I would like the texture of just quinoa, so I added quick...

Broccoli Cheese Quiche

Broccoli Cheese Quiche
Broccoli Cheese Quiche Quiche is one of my favorite ways not only to meal prep for the week, but to use up leftover food in my fridge.  That is how I made this broccoli cheese quiche.  With bacon.  Everything is better with bacon! If you are new to WW, or looking for quick and easy dishes, this one clicks all the boxes.   Bacon bits can...
