Healthy Tofu Tacos

For a long time tofu has had have a bad name. Not many people seem to care for it, and I used to be one of them. But I'm telling you if you season it right it can actually be really delicious and even something you'll want to make again and again!

In these tofu tacos the tofu is abundantly seasoned with a variety of Mexican spices, soy sauce and lime juice which builds up much more depth and a welcome vibrant flavor.

Believe it or not you may find you like them just as much as the classic ground beef tacos! And these are a healthier alternative to rotate with, plus tofu is about half the price of ground beef and ground turkey.

These tacos come together quickly for a simple weeknight meal, they are perfectly filling, and they make a great leftover lunch the next day if you have any left.

If you haven't given tofu a chance yet I'd say this is an excellent place to start. And as always with tacos, just be sure to pile high all those tasty toppings!

This refreshing Chinese Chicken Salad has such a welcome, satisfying blend of textures paired with well rounded flavor. The dressing has a crave-able rich peanut flavor, the veggies offer the salad so much freshness and a great crunch, and the chicken makes it hearty and filling.

It's fairly easy to make since it includes a shortcut of store-bought, pre-cooked rotisserie chicken. This also makes it a no cooking required dinner salad recipe.

There's just bit of measuring, chopping and tossing. And if you happen to have someone to help one of you can prep the salad while the other person makes the dressing.

It's a nutritious, all in one salad that's great for serving as a main dish entree for lunch or dinner. You'll love all the deliciousness in every bite!

An upgraded coleslaw that's crunchy, fresh and delicious. Made with cabbage, apples, cranberries and almonds and it's all coated in sweet and tangy dressing. It's the perfect side for BBQ's, parties or picnics!

Apple Slaw Recipe

Who doesn't love coleslaw? It's crunchy, it's creamy, it has just enough sweetness, and it goes with just about anything. It's always quick to be polished off.

Here you get the perfect blend of textures and flavors with the mix-in additions of apples, cranberries, almonds and optional cheese. And it's covered in a more wholesome, lighter Greek yogurt dressing (versus a classic coleslaw dressing that has as much as a cup of mayonnaise in it).

This apple slaw recipe has a pleasant mild flavor to it, but if you'd like a more pronounced flavor you can add in a tablespoon of dijon mustard to the dressing.

And if you want to skip a step and go with a shortcut, you can use a coleslaw mix in place of the shredded cabbage and carrots. Also just chop the apples instead of getting paticular and cutting into matchsticks to save time.

I think it's time for pulled pork or pulled chicken sandwiches this week for dinner, don't you? And then of course this homemade coleslaw to go with it!

Loaded Spicy Salmon Bowls

These salmon rice bowls are loaded with the works! It's an abundance of fresh ingredients all piled together in one bowl for maximum flavor.

You get a harmonious blend of various textures, an exciting combination of flavors that all highlight each other perfectly, and there's a visually pleasing variety of vibrant colors.

It's made up of nutritious ingredients and it's such a filling dish. I'm a white rice fan lately but you can easily swap white jasmine rice for brown rice (regular, short grain, or jasmine brown rice) or quinoa.

I've also listed other various substitutes to use in this dish based on what you have on hand (see ideas below).

This is one to add to the dinner rotation, it's incredibly delicious!

The Best Fish Tacos with Salmon

When you want a quick dinner that doesn't skimp on flavor these salmon tacos are an excellent choice!

They are layered with an abundance of fresh Baja-style flavor.

You get that classic masa taste from the tortilla, the complexity of well seasoned salmon in the filling, vibrant lime and creamy richness from the taco slaw, and a highlight of herbaceous finish from the cilantro.

And I think you'll appreciate the layering of a trio of textures - including a soft and chewy tortilla, buttery salmon, and crunchy cabbage.

It's all the perfect blend and a dish fit for company!

A Comforting Cabbage Roll Soup Recipe

This Cabbage Roll Soup is so much faster than making traditional cabbage rolls yet it tastes just as good! It's a hassle-free, cooked in one pot recipe!

You have a quick prep of ingredients, veggies are sauteed, then everything is just simmered until the cabbage and rice are tender. And during that time all those delicious herby, beefy, tomato-y flavors meld together perfectly.

It's a soup that is made with basic ingredients, it's incredibly hearty, and I think you'll agree it's just super satisfying comfort food. It's made up of an abundance of veggies, the rice will help fill you up, and you get a fair amount of protein from the beef so it's an all around win!

This is so delicious that you'll likely find yourself converting from the traditional, more labor intensive cabbage rolls to this easier soup method from here on out instead!

Easy Roasted Cabbage

I've been known to put more time and effort into the main dish then when it comes to sides I usually just steam a veggie or something. Sides like this roasted cabbage are so easy though that it's nearly just as simply as steaming or sautéing veggies.

Roasting vegetables is the way to go because it really just brings out their natural sweetness and offers a depth of flavor that steaming or sautéing can't. Really this is more of a method than a recipe but I thought I'd share in case you haven't tried it yet.

These simple roasted cabbage slices pair perfectly with baked chicken thighs, honey mustard salmon, potato sausage soup, or a homestyle pot roast dinner.

Also feel free to switch up the seasonings here and play around with different seasonings you like.

The Easiest Coleslaw Recipe!

I used to think coleslaw would require a lot of ingredients and insisted on freshly shredded cabbage but this version uses FOUR ingredients and includes a pre-shredded cabbage blend and it tastes perfect! No one has time to use a box grater on green cabbage, so store-bought coleslaw mix is the best move.

This coleslaw recipe is one of those back-pocket recipes, especially during the summer with all the potluck cookouts. It's the perfect last-minute side and goes perfectly with grilled meats and hot or cold sandwiches.

It's just one of those recipes you'll use over and over, plus it's super versatile and you can customize it how you like. Keep reading below for some delicious ideas!

Asian Ramen Cabbage Salad

The perfect salad for cookouts, lunch parties and picnics. A fresh cabbage salad with a tasty oriental twist.

I've loved this salad since I was a kid. When ramen is involved who can resist? We all love to snag a taste of the dry ramen crumbs before preparing it but here we can enjoy an abundance of them.

I love to serve this with grilled chicken or even rotisserie chicken for a shortcut dinner. You can even go ahead and toss the chicken right into the salad.

Tips for Making It the Best

My key changes to the classic recipe that set it apart are to:

• Toast not only the almonds but also the ramen. It add nice notes of toasted flavor to an otherwise very bland ramen.
• Add extra seasonings. Some recipes will use the seasoning packet but I think it's full of bad ingredients (and of course lots of sodium) so I make my own seasoning blend using garlic, ginger and sesame oil.
• Replace the classic sugar with honey. It has great flavor that goes really well here, and it's a bit of a healthier option. Same with replacing vegetable oil with olive oil.

Egg Roll in a Bowl Recipe - a Healthier Option

This simple egg roll style recipe is basically a simple stir-fry. Loaded with vegetables, lean protein and a flavorful sauce. And it's a healthy version of those take-out style egg rolls we all crave.

You can have this ready in about 30 minutes (you can prep veggies while turkey cooks) and it pairs perfectly with tender rice (but if you want to keep it lower carb then just serve sans rice).

It's a simple dish you'll fall in love with after one bite!
