Chicken Curry

Curry is one of my favorite comfort meals and it’s so easy to make.

I love how flavorful and versatile this recipe is – you really can use whatever veggies you have on hand! If you’re plant-based, you can replace the chicken with chickpeas.

I like to serve the curry alongside rice or cauliflower rice!

Butternut Squash Marinara

Homemade sauces and salad dressings are some of my favorite recipes to make at home because you can control the ingredients. I love loading mine up with fresh herbs and spices, including tons of fresh basil and garlic.

This recipe is a bit different than a typical marinara given you use butternut squash, but also because there’s no unnecessary added sugar. I’m always trying to think of fun and creative ways to diversify our plant-food intake, and this one checks all the boxes.

Watermelon Salad

This watermelon salad is SO refreshing and will make the perfect addition to your Labor Day plans. The pistachios and feta provide some fats and protein to stabilize blood sugar levels, but I recommend eating this alongside a meal for sustained energy throughout the day.

While I did not include this in the original recipe, adding some freshly sliced basil or mint adds a nice pop of flavor to this dish!

Mango Salsa

This mango salsa is so refreshing and is the perfect combo of salty and sweet. You can substitute the mangoes for peaches depending on what is in season and local to you. The variety of plant fibers in this recipe help to feed those beneficial bacteria residing in your gut.

I love eating this salsa with Siete Foods grain free tortilla chips, but it’s also amazing when served over salmon or paired with a burrito bowl.

Basic Bowl with Spicy Curry Peanut Sauce

Last week I had a client talk about food overwhelm. As in having so much information about what constitutes healthy food that it overwhelms her. Her ultimate goal is to eat perfectly paleo. But instead of taking baby steps toward that (maybe-too-lofty-for-her) goal, she throws her hands up and stays stuck.

It’s a classic case of letting perfect be the enemy of good, and most of us know it all too well. In our strive for perfection, we inevitably fall short of our ideals.

Creamy Veggie Pasta

This pasta is protein-packed and veggie-loaded. Perfect for when you're looking for healthy comfort food, or a meat-free dinner.

I used Banza pasta, which is pasta made from chickpeas and pea protein. I order it from Thrive Market, like most of my dry goods (click here to save 25% on your first order!) I think it's super tasty, but use whatever pasta you like!

Crispy Salmon Cakes

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I eat a lot of canned fish. In fact, I just got an email last week from a girl who was interested in my nutrition program, but was afraid that she would have to eat sardines! (First of all, that's hilarious. Secondly, you 100% do not have to eat sardines while doing Fueled+Fit.) If you're wondering what all the fuss is about, you can read more about my love affair with canned salmon here. Today, I'm bringing you a whole new way to eat it.

Veggie Loaded Shepherd’s Pie

I’ve been trying to get out of my food comfort zone as of late. If you get my newsletters (get them here!), you recently saw that I’ve been tinkering around with some recipes. I hate following recipes, but…I’m culinarily bored, man. And the thought of having to cook dinner each night makes me want to claw my eyes out.

5 Simple Summer Suppers to Make When You Don't Feel like Cooking

I've been in a food rut. Most evenings, the thought of preparing a meal both exhausts and annoys me. Back when I was a vegetarian, it was so easy to throw together a last minute meal. Cook up a pot of grains, sauté up some veggies...done. Now I eat a relatively grain-free diet, with far more animal protein. (With lots of personal experimentation, I've learned I feel better this way. This may or may not be appropriate for you. A great way to figure it out is by joining my Fueled+Fit program. This is basically the format I used to dial in my current ideal diet. I say current because since I'm a human, I will continue to change, and so will my diet.)

(Not from a Can) Green Bean Casserole

I suppose it’s a little cliché to talk about being grateful this week. But I’m doing it anyway.

Last week I detailed the craziness of my past few months. I got a lot of responses telling me to keep my head up, that it would get easier, that I was doing a great job. First of all, thank you for the responses. You’re awesome.

The other night I was really in the mood for mashed potatoes, but thought I would add a little twist. The twist turned out to be not-so-little, but the result was delicious. My husband had no idea what he was eating (Mashed potatoes? Turnip?). Nevertheless, he finished his plate in record time.

With mac 'n' cheese on the brain, I remembered seeing Alfredo sauce made with cauliflower on Pinterest I'm a huge fan of all things cauliflower, and figured I could puree my way to some healthy and comforting mac 'n' cheese.
