Burgers. Am I right? They come in all shapes and sizes, and while you might not think “healthy” and “burger” belong in the same sentence, they can definitely coexist. It all depends on how you make them, how you top them, and what you have with them. I love how simple it is to make…

Hawaiian Barbecue Chicken
Good things come in threes, right? Well, I’ve got a recipe for you that consists of three ingredients, made in three steps, and can be paired with three other sides. Which gives us three reasons as to why this recipe is so wonderful, so you know it’s got to be a winner. Here’s all you…
Honey Dijon Pork Tenderloin
I’ll be real with you: The first time I tried making this pork tenderloin recipe, it threw me for a loop. Not because the recipe itself is complicated, but because I have an apparent knack for making simple things more difficult. What can I say. It’s how I roll. I made a post on Instagram…
Turkey Butternut Squash Chili
When the weather starts cooling down outside, I love making myself a good bowl of chili. It’s a quintessential fall dish. There’s probably a thousand and one ways to make it – I don’t think we’d have cook-offs and contests if there weren’t. So, I guess that makes this recipe number one thousand and two–and…
Balsamic Chicken Pizza
For starters, let me be clear: I have nothing against pizza. I won’t ever say you can’t have it ever. That’s crazy talk. I’m all for it, in moderation. But sometimes, I find I also enjoy a healthier version that’s flavorful, satisfying, and helps keep me on track toward my goals. This Balsamic Chicken Pizza…

This Cilantro Lime Chicken has fresh, vibrant flavors that will liven up any Mexican dish your heart desires to make. It only requires 5…
Roasted Sweet Potatoes
A lot of times, my sides for my meals are frozen vegetables, or something else convenient and microwaveable, like rice or beans. It makes my busy life a little easier, while still allowing me to eat healthy. But, as you may have seen with my Buffalo Chicken Boats or Basil Coconut Chicken recipes, I sure…
Coconut Basil Chicken
This Coconut Basil Chicken is one of my favorite recipes. It’s light, bright, and packed with fresh flavors. I wish I could say it was my own brain child, but it’s not. In scouring Pinterest for healthy slow cooker chicken meals, I discovered it on this site. It’s 100% worth sharing here, with my own…
Mexican Mélange
I love a good one-pot recipe. This Mexican Mélange is a one-stop shop that covers all your major macronutrients in one bowl. Here’s what goes into the mixture: But here’s what I see: Okay, so the speaker is optional, but if you’re not listening to music while you’re cooking, then what are you doing? It…
Buffalo Chicken Boats
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: I am not a world-class chef. When I started out, I rarely cooked for myself, and lacked a lot of confidence in cooking in general. Knowing I needed to cook more for myself, I looked for recipes that were quick, easy, simple, cheap, and healthy. I…
