Stir-Fried Tofu, Shrimp, and Peas
If you're new to stir-frying tofu, start with this marvelous marriage of land and sea. It is easy and the ingredients are readily available. The results showcase how tofu can absorb the flavors of its companion ingredients while becoming velvety.

Thai Basil Chicken Lettuce Wraps
This was one of my frequent go-to recipes pre-kids, but I altered the recipe to make it more kid-friendly! You can use your protein of choice; in the past, I used to cook this dish using ground pork, but now I use ground chicken since it is not as...

Turkey & Kale Frittata with Fire Roasted Red Peppers
Great for breakfast or lunch, fast and easy too.
Too busy to cook this week? Make a frittata! If ever there was a food that is both delicious and quick, it’s the frittata. They’re a lot like stir-fries in that you can throw in whatever you feel like/have on hand and come out with something delicious. This week, I had ground Turkey, Kale, and some delicccious Fire Roasted Red Peppers.

"Point-less" Meals: Chicken Orzo Skillet
Chicken, Orzo with Baby Kale, Spinach, and fresh herbs = YUMMY + HEALTHY
Fairly quick and easy to make, this is sure to please. If you have never used Orzo, it is a pasta that almost looks like a large grain of rice.

Mini Ham & Cheese Quinoa Cups
Super easy and tasty, I used canadian bacon and might try spinach next time. Can't believe they're only 47 calories and 2 grams of fat!
I had this whole spiel ready about how real men do, in fact, eat quiche, as demonstrated by Ben who housed nearly a dozen Mini Ham & Cheese Quinoa Cups that

Zucchini Rice Gratin
A tasty and healthy side, goes with any main course!
I’ve since become — with the coaching of a toddler who will happily ingest it at almost every meal — a person who really, really likes rice and rarely burns it (insert a slow clap here) and this is one of the dishes that brought on the transformation.

Strip Steaks with Tomato-Mint Salsa
A light and quick meal for weeknights!
Strip steaks are an ideal weeknight meal—they cook in minutes, and each steak serves one person. The fresh, summery tomato-mint salsa packs a punch thanks to the jalapeno.

Cauliflower rice!
Another great rice alternative.
As we continue to reduce grains and focus on fresh, local, organic options- we decided to get creative tonight. When cooking Thai- how can you eat curry without rice? You make cauliflower rice.

Low Fat Mini Meatloaves
I've developed a new liking for meat loaf, it's hearty and tasty, great on sandwiches, with quinoa, etc.
I found a recipe on the web and did some adjusting to suit our taste. The recipe calls for ground turkey; however, extra-lean ground beef also works well.
