  • When it comes to cooking dinner, easy elegance is what I’m going for these days. At first glance, this buttery, winey shrimp scampi looks downright decadent. But in reality, it’s the poster child for simplicity. It’s like I’m an illusionist in the kitchen! The shrimp are bathed in a garlicky, lemony butter sauce then dished up as an appetizer or served as a main with pasta, zucchini noodles, or over rice. And don’t forget the sourdough! Search “shrimp scampi” when you tap the link in my bio.
  • This Chinese Chicken Salad takes the healthier high road than the heavier versions I always see at those popular food chains that everyone loves. But this one with crunchy romaine, wontons, and an almond crunch, topped with protein-packed chicken breast, pasta noodles, and a flavor-flav sesame dressing won't weigh you down or add lbs to the numbers on the scale. And it makes an awesome meal-prepped meal to dish out all week long. Search "Chinese chicken salad" with the link in my profile for the recipe.
  • Perfectly crunchy with just the right clumps, this homemade granola has just the right amount of maple syrup sweetness to flavor a healthy combo of oats, nuts, dried cranberries, and flaky coconut for keeping those healthy eating resolutions alive and well.

Tap the link in my profile and search "lentil soup" for the recipe. ⁠
  • 2020 is delivering serious Mediterranean diet food moods with these quinoa bowls with crispy chicken + roasted veg that have staked their healthy claim on quick and easy meal-prep dinners that swap duties as take-to-work lunches too.
