Ready for another easy, delicious, and always nutritious meal in under 30 minutes?

I’m a big fan of using ingredients that are versatile enough to use in multiple meals throughout the week. Learning how to mix and match your weekly produce haul with staple pantry/freezer items can help you stay within your grocery budget and also cut down on food waste as well.

Need more ideas for “no-cook” meals? After a long day, sometimes the last thing you want to do is spend it cooking. Trust me, I’ve been there too! However, it’s still 100% possible to throw together a healthy meal in less than 10-minutes. The key is to keep a few pantry items stocked so you’ll always be prepared. Never underestimate items like frozen vegetables and canned beans or legumes – everything stores well and provide a variety of different nutrition benefits.

Regardless of whether you’re a salad lover, avoid leafy greens at all cost, or are somewhere in between those polar spectrums, there are always ways to make them 50% more enjoyable. Here are the only 3 tools you really need to make your next salad top notch:
It’s so simple that it’s almost basic – but also where we start. How many times have you awkwardly tossed your salad in a bowl that’s too small? It’s time for an upgrade, my friend – tossing it in a bigger bowl helps the flavors + ingredients mix better so that your ratio of bites per leafy green vs bites of the fun ingredients aren’t too off.
Freaking game changer. Salads are almost always more enjoyable when they’re properly dressed and chopped. I’m not sure I know of ANYONE who enjoys chewing an entire red bell pepper in one bite. Chopping everything together blends the dressing and flavors seamlessly. Especially important if someone is a borderline salad lover – getting a chopped salad that’s perfectly combined might just be what converts them from the “meh” to the “damn this is good” side.

LOL but who else, right? The other day I saw a kale and cauliflower salad at my local Trader Joe’s and knew I had to make my own version. I’m a fan of minimal ingredient lunches that don’t suck and pack well – this fits the bill!
