Korean Beef Stir Fry
February 28, 2019Are you craving a little of your favorite food from a Korean BBQ spot? Then try this dish it is super simple and really flavorful. It is best if you marinade overnight but at the very least marinate meat for an hour. The original recipe calls for two teaspoons of brown sugar in the marinade. I omitted but you can add if you like or use monk fruit sugar, brown sugar helps caramelize the meat. But it tastes just as good without it. I also added broccoli to complete the meal and add a little more nutrients and fiber. I also used grass fed NY strip but any tender cut will do. Add some red peeper flakes for those of you that like to spice it up like me.

Turkey Meatballs with Tomato Basil Sauce
January 29, 2019Here is a recipe you can use for meal prep. I get so many requests for the recipe and thought I would share. The meatballs are baked and remain moist, tender and really delicious. You can use them for meal prep but make sure you measure the sauce separate from the meatballs. If you are used to having pasta and gravy (sauce) on Sundays try using zoodles or spaghetti squash for your pasta on your next Sunday’s meal. You will not miss the pasta but you can also use GF pasta if you have the carbohydrates available. The sauce is simple and if you use good quality tomatoes it is really delicious. You will keep your family happy because you and your family can enjoy a Sunday pasta dinner and not have to worry about it being to heavy!

Baked Salmon Meatballs With Creamy Avocado Sauce
January 29, 2019Here is a recipe that I used for a client recently for lunch but this would also be great as a snack or an appetizer. I was a little skeptical but pleasantly surprised! You can make them bite size for a party or a little larger if you are using for a meal. Really yummy and the avocado cream with the chipotle seasoning adds a little smokey flavor with depth. For bite size you do not even need a dollop of the sauce. All you really need is a teaspoon of the sauce. Try this! You will be delighted you did. Serve them at your Super Bowl party for a healthy snack!!

Garlic Lemon Broccoli
January 1, 2019This Garlic Lemon Broccoli dish is not any ordinary broccoli dish. It’s simplicity may be deceiving. But try this and I promise the broccoli will disappear in minutes maybe even before it makes it to the table. Adds a delicious twist to one of our favorite vegetables and goes so well with any protein. You can even add a little red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.

Classic Thai Red Curry
November 27, 2018This is the easiest recipe and so delicious. I think it is better than the yellow curry Thai dish. You can add a little heat by adding a Thai chili or a sliced Serrano chili. If you cannot find kaffir leaf (lime leaf) squeeze some lime juice into the dish. Asian markets generally have but I have run into problems locating it in an Asian market. Also Thai basil is best but you can use regular basil in a pinch if you cannot find it in an Asian market.
