My biggest piece of unsolicited RD advice when you are going meatless is to make sure you still include a protein source at your meal. In this case, I added beans to my Hominy and Poblano Pepper Pozole for a good protein and fiber kick. Other great meatless proteins are lentils, eggs, nuts, quinoa, wild rice, and chickpeas.
View PostBBQ BBQ BBQ! Chicken pizza. Healthy style of course. Flatout Bread topped with barbecue sauce (I used Head Country – it’s much lower in sugar than most!), a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese, rotisserie chicken, chopped red onion, and basil. Broil until browned. Took about 10 min to prep and cook, and is only about 350 calories for the whole pizza. High in fiber (thanks to onions and Flatout) and protein (thanks to cheese and chicken). Go ‘za!
View PostHealthy Thai Basil Chicken with cauliflower rice, anyone? Took no more than 20 min total to prep and cook. And was SO tasty. Gluten free, high protein, low cal. Sounds ideal to me!
View PostEver used broccoli slaw in place of noodles? I bet after reading this you will! High in filling fiber without the calories of traditional pasta. Tried this skillet dish tonight, and it did not disappoint.
View PostSalads make me happy! Just kidding. But this Kale Quinoa Salad did! I am pretty obsessed with this salad dressing. I use it on everything. Like… everything. And the nice part is that I almost always have the ingredients for it around my kitchen. So that makes life easy.
