Easiest Zucchini Pizza Boats

It’s no secret that I’m obsessed with zucchini. My husband actually makes fun of my obsession but it is such a versatile vegetable! Which is why it makes a great base for something like pizza. This recipe is beyond easy but so satisfying and a great way to get in more veggies for people who may not love them regularly (kids or adults).

Easy Seafood Bites

As most of you know right now, seafood is full of amazing anti-inflammatory, brain-boosting, immune-boosting fats called omega 3s (read more about that here) so I love finding easy ways to work it in. And believe it or not, canned seafood (salmon, tuna, sardines etc.) is just as healthy as fresh or frozen. This recipe uses canned salmon or tuna to make delicious meatball or burger-like bites! Best part is, the hands on part is only 5 minutes! These are also portable so they could be brought on the go for a protein, healthy fat and fiber dense snack :)

10 Minute Sweet Potato Noodle Pad Thai

I love anything that takes 10 minutes or less… especially this dish. It’s truly so satisfying and just uses a few simple ingredients! You can pair it with a protein of your choice or just eat it by itself. It’s pretty hearty and flavorful. It happens to be paleo/whole 30 diet friendly as well :)

Easy Citrus Dijon Salmon

I eat salmon at least once a week and honestly, I don’t get sick of it. Usually I just spray it with some avocado oil and throw on some spices and throw it in the oven. But I realized, this recipe is JUST as easy but has such a unique and satisfying flavor profile. When I made it the first time, my husband was really pleasantly surprised that we weren’t just doing the same old thing with our salmon. It truly takes only a few minutes so I hope you try it and love it too!

No-fuss Mediterranean Tuna Salad

Although I love to cook, I’m really all about those simple but satisfying and flavorful recipes. This is definitely one of them. You don’t have to turn on the oven, it uses minimal ingredients but it’s tasty AF! I love using Tonnino tuna filets because a) it tastes amazing b) it’s low mercury c) it’s wild-caught d) it’s dolphin safe e) the “flavored” ones use such quality ingredients! Like the oregano flavor I used here just has tuna, quality olive oil, water, sea salt, oregano and oregano oil and it takes the work of seasoning out for me. Anyways, this recipe is amazing on crackers, toast (like my magic bread), by itself or on a bed of greens.

Creamy Coconut Chia Pudding

This recipe is stupid easy. You’ll do it once and be like “that was it?” … which, is one of the many reasons I love it so much. It’s also great for meal prep since it’s easy to make ahead, very portable, and lasts most of the week. This creamy coconut chia pudding can be eaten as a breakfast, snack, or even a topping for another food (ahem waffles and pancakes!) Bonus, it is completely free of processed ingredients and is full of healthy fats, fiber and protein to keep you full for a long while! Can’t wait to hear what your favorite toppings are.
