Chicken is one of my favorite proteins to cook with because it’s so versatile. Pan-seared, baked, stir-fried, you name it…I love it all. With that said, I do have some recipes I enjoy above others – one of my those being Chicken Piccata. This recipe is so simple, yet the flavors make it seem super … Chicken Piccata
Kale is all the rage right now. However, as a dietitian, I’ve known for quite some time that this leafy green rocks! It works well in so many dishes – soups, smoothies, stir fries, frittatas, pastas…you name it.

Crispy, crunchy and gooey. THAT is French bread pizza. This is one of the easiest meals to make and there are so many different ways to top it.

Josh and I ate at a restaurant back in Holland (Michigan, not the country – we’re not that cool) over Christmas break that served all kinds of international dishes.

In an average … Salmon Burgers with Lemon Aioli and Red Cabbage Slaw
I’ve been wanting to try this recipe for so long and with the gluten-free craze in full swing, this is a great substitute to standard pizza crust. Yes, it doesn’t taste exactly like normal crust, but it has a really good flavor and I didn’t feel weighed down after eating it. I topped the pizza … Supreme Pizza with Cauliflower Crust
Today I was feeling a little adventurous and was ready to experiment with some new flavors. Ever since Josh and I traveled to Mexico a few years back I’ve always wanted to try making my own homemade mole sauce. But, because I don’t have a huge pantry or the resources to get all the authentic … Chicken Mole Enchiladas
So many customers I talk to say they simply just don’t have the time to make healthy meals during the week.

Baked salmon is one of … Mustard and Herb Crusted Salmon with Rainbow Kale
My slow cooker has gotten some love lately…one could say I’m a bit obsessed. But who can blame me?
