Skinny Dough Mini Pot Pies

Skinny Dough Mini Pot Pies
These skinny dough mini pot pies are delish! I will not rest until I figure out how many different ways I can use my skinny pizza dough.  I am loving seeing so many people tag me on Instagram saying that they won’t order out pizza anymore because the pizza at home is just as good – and a great family night to build your own...

Skinny Dough Deep Dish Pizza

Skinny Dough Deep Dish Pizza
Did you guys know that my skinny pizza dough makes great Chicago style deep dish pizza?   I could have sworn I had leftover pizza dough in my fridge, but for the life of me couldn’t find it. When I asked Hannah if she had seen it, she said “look in the leftover bin!”  Yes, there is a rectangle tray in our fridge dedicated to leftovers. ...

Homemade Sopes

Homemade Sopes
Homemade Sopes Recipe I’ve never made homemade sopes before.  But that’s what happens when you meal plan with what you have on hand.  I’ve had a bag of masa in my pantry for a while.  I just googled “what to make with masa” and sopes popped up.  A lot of recipes called for adding lard to the batter, or butter.  Masa is simply corn flour. ...

Here are...

Copycat Long John Silvers
I was so excited to leave work on time yesterday – it’s been a while!  I knew I had chicken breasts I needed to use up, and my first thought was to make buffalo chicken bites.  While these didn’t turn out anywhere near I thought they would in my head, what I ended up making was COPYCAT LONG JOHN SILVERS.  Yes, I am shouting that...

Pickle Chicken

Pickle Chicken
More chia pudding!  I love that it takes less than a minute to make, and it provides breakfast for a couple days.  5 points for this bowl – damn granola, why do you have to be so many points?! Another super busy day at work – I hope to power through today so I don’t have to stay late again – I have a goal...

Leftover Pasta Carbonara

Leftover Pasta Carbonara
  Let’s go back in time for a bit, shall we?  Maybe 25 years ago, I ate TWO apple fritters on the way to work.  Then I would get a frappuccino with my co-workers when I got to work.  That would be 41 points right there and it wouldn’t even be 10:00 a.m.! Lunch would be Sbarro – it was right by my old office...
