I love these Crustless Chipotle Egg Cups (or as some people call them breakfast egg muffin cups). They are my "go to" for an easy meal prep breakfast. You can make a batch in under an hour, freeze them for later and have a quick breakfast for 24 days! I eat one for breakfast with a banana and a hot cup of tea. I even take them in a cooler frozen when traveling. Previously published on March 13, 2018, updated with new pictures and information. Quick easy breakfast in 1 1/2 min! Low in ...
This Healthy Chicken Enchilada Casserole with Spiralized Butternut Squash is made with an easy homemade enchilada sauce. It's loaded with lots of healthy vegetables and has a slightly sweet and spicy (but not too spicy) flavor that the whole family will love! It is a variation of a quick and easy recipe I often do for my kids when I'm in a hurry. Normally I just throw together: black beans, chicken, a chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, onions, garlic, tomatoes and serve it in ...
I love homemade apple dumplings! Recently I pulled out my mom's recipe from the Betty Crocker cookbook, (some of you know the exact cookbook I'm talking about - the red checkered one with the torn edges, pictures of women in 1950's with their aprons. And the new "modern" kitchen? It makes me chuckle every time I look at it). On a whim, I decided to put their apple dumpling recipe into WW Recipe Builder - 28 points or 802 calories per apple dumpling! Really? Are you kidding me? That's way too ...
About this recipe
These cranberry orange scones are definitely not your average English tea scone. They are made with fresh cranberries and are light, fluffy, moist and delicious-more like biscuits. I do believe they are best the first day. Of course you can eat them the next day and even freeze them, (we'll talk about that later) but in my opinion, they are best right out of the oven! I modified my original recipe slightly to make them a bit more healthier. Decreasing the sugar, adding ...
A healthy meal that everyone loves! This is one of my favorite and go-to recipes when I need an easy and quick meal. Years ago when I published my 9th cookbook, Entertaining with Amy, I created this Quick and Easy Cilantro Pork Pot recipe for times when you needed an easy meal for your family that everyone likes. Basically you dumped all the ingredients in the crock pot and cooked it for 6-8 hours. However times have changed a bit, so I updated the recipe using my Instant Pot and now I love ...

Want to make an easy Instant Pot Homemade Tomato Sauce with fresh tomatoes? While I love my Quick and Easy Roasted Cherry Tomato Sauce, I also enjoy making a sauce that takes longer with fresh plum tomatoes such as San Marzano tomatoes. Normally I'll simmer it for hours on the stove after having spent a lot of time peeling, coring and seeding the tomatoes first. After buying a 15 pound box of San Marzanos recently (because I didn't grow enough), I decided this was the year to ...
Some of you may not know that I owned a tea room and tea company (Afternoon to Remember) for 14 years. During that time I made a million scones, all different varieties. You can find the recipes in my various tea room cookbooks and I even have an e Book- The Scone Recipe Collection (digital, pdf). Not long ago I came across a bakery with Jalapeño Scones. Why in the world didn't I ever think of that combination before? I have lots of fruit scone recipes, cheddar scones and savory ham and ...
