This Garlic Lemon Salmon was oh soo delicious and took under 15 minutes - so it's easy and you can do it!  Fish (especially salmon) is fich in healthy omega-3 fats (DHEA being one of them) and is extremely important for cell function. This recipe is foolproof and a great way to get in these important nutrients into your week!

An easy family favorite that ensures you'll have antioxidants, vitamins, fiber, protein, and healthy fats. This meal took about 15 minutes from prep to table!  Sautéed peppers and onions, with some chicken tenders in a taco seasoning dry rub fit perfectly in these Boston Bibb lettuce cups to make for a low carb meal.  I topped it with lots of avocado and salsa too for extra healthy fats (and delicious flavors).  

This easy mediterranean style dish is a weeknight favorite that takes under 5 minutes to prepare and less than 20 minutes to cook. It's got lots of delicious flavors from garlic, kalamata olives, and roasted cherry tomatoes.  

Moroccan Stuffed Acorn Squash is a tasty, easy and nutrient-dense meal to serve this week.  Bold flavors of raisins, cumin, garlic, onion sautéed into grass-fed beef/lamb and finished in a sweet starchy bowl of acorn squash.

Gobble down these Paleo Nachos! Incredibly delicious and probably the easiest 5 minutes of a fancy looking nacho dish you've ever thrown together. This recipe uses high fiber chips with very few ingredients (only sweet potatoes and oil!), and has a lean protein (chicken breast) and healthy fats and nutrients (avocado, tomato, romaine).  You will LOVE this recipe! 

Meal Prep is one of the biggest time savers for the week - and this recipe has truly been a lifesaver and a household favorite.  It's easy to make (you can use your crockpot), it's filling, stores well, and it's highly nutrient-dense - high quality protein paired with fiber rich spaghetti squash, micronutrients and heart healthy lycopene from tomatoes, immune boosting onion and herbs.  

Looking for a simple meal to batch cook and have on hand all week?  This is SUPER tasty and high in nutrients, fiber, and protein and micronutrients helpful for boosting immune function.  You can cook this on the stove-top or toss into the crockpot for a simple warming meal!

An amazing medley of spiraled zucchini pasta topped with sundried tomatoes, artichokes, capers, mushrooms and bedazzled with amazing nutritional properties (contains manganese, potassium, fiber all good for healthy blood vessels and an active metabolism). 

Here is an EASY protein option that you can make and have on hand all week using one of the most versatile plant proteins – beans! I love it as a snack or on top of lettuce for a salad.  Couldn't be more refreshing and filling too!

This recipe is so delicious, a perfect recipe to make extra and store for lunch/dinner tomorrow, and a great way to enjoy your "low mein" fun flavors but get in a whole lot more vegetables, fiber and nutrients!

It’s a great source of fiber and protein due to the quinoa and lentils, but it’s also got some bioflavonoids from the parsley and a natural sweetness and antimicrobial properties from the sautéed onion, garlic and mushroom mix.  I do love my spice, and adding in a bit of hot sauce and cumin adds the touch that you need.  These patties hold together well and worked great on the skillet to bake until crispy - oh la la so delicious and nutritious!

Chicken can get boring, so why not spice it up when it comes to the taste, texture, and even how you use it?  Most people think chicken salad is just chopped chicken with mayo, but this recipe gives chicken salad a whole new meaning!

Creamy, mouthwatering, a hits-the-spot weeknight dinner. Instead of using a grain based pasta and a cream-based alfredo, I switched it up and went for a much healthier version that tastes delicious!

You have the option to make this meal vegetarian (no beef), or add some extra iron, protein, and CLA (conjugated Linoleic Acids) with a lean grass-fed beef which has been shown to positively help reduce body fat.  Get cooking - this one is a family favorite in our house!

Looking for some SPICE to your dinner-time fare? This dish was inspired by my recent travels to Rishikeshi, India back last Fall 2015.  Indian food is rich in spices and aromatics like onions, garlic, turmeric, and ginger all of which have amazing nutritional properties (and make your food taste super delicious!!)
