Healthy Eats

Finding meals to cook that are healthy and easy can be challenging. We have found a few staples lately that we love.

Bruschetta Chicken

Season your chicken as desired and grill or back. Top with hummus, bruschetta, and black olives. For my bruschetta, I toss tomatoes, fresh basil, olive oil, salt and pepper together. This tastes great with roasted carrots! Toss your carrots in olive oil, season, and roast at 425 for about 25 minutes.

Roasted Veggie Quinoa Salad

mushrooms
quinoa
pecans
parm
balsamic vinaigarette
olive oil
salt and pepper, basil

Chop your veggie of choice and toss with mushrooms in olive oil and seasoning of choice. Roast at 400 for 20-30 minutes. Cook quinoa according to directions. Toast pecans. Once everything is done cooking, combine quinoa, roasted veggies, pecans, and dressing. Top with some parm and enjoy! We ate ours with baked salmon and it was delicious and very filling!
