I LOVE some really good chicken shawarma, but I’m rarely interested in eating it unless I make it myself. My chicken shawarma recipe uses organic chicken breast, so I know I’m consuming quality meat (not unethical and unhealthy factory farmed meat). The spice mixture in this recipe is sooooo yummy… It’s seriously addictive. It’s also really good for you. It’s packed with all kinds of antioxidants and beneficial compounds, including metabolic-enhancing cayenne pepper (if you choose to use it). I like to make a large batch to mix and match with different Middle Eastern-inspired meals or just eat straight from the fridge as a quick protein packed snack.

Read MoreWhen it comes to preparing salmon, this simple and quick recipe is one of my top favs. Wild salmon has tons of healthy Omega-3 fats and is relatively low in mercury, making it a great food to include in a healthy diet. I love to make a couple of extra pieces and then either crumble them in a salad or eat them as easy leftovers throughout the rest of the week.
Read MoreThis dish is pure comfort food that still maintains its health appeal. I will be honest - I typically won’t eat chicken thighs. EXCEPT in this dish. The extra fat content really contributes to the flavor, plus the darker meat has a higher iron content. This dish makes excellent leftovers… Cook once, eat all week!
Read MoreThis versatile protein and veggie-packed breakfast is one of my frequent meal-planning go-tos. Minor tweaks can make this recipe keto, paleo and/or vegetarian. To make it as easy as possible, prep all of the ingredients the day/night before so all you have to do is toss them in the pan in the morning. Cook once and enjoy this meal for multiple breakfasts throughout the week!
* For a keto version, add a side of avocado. For a paleo version, leave out the mozzarella. For a vegetarian version, leave out the chicken and/or mozzarella.
