1. Golden Ground Turkey and Rice Skillet
You had us at one-pan dinner. This easy skillet meal has
turmeric-tinted rice, lean ground turkey and a refreshing cucumber salad on
top. Dollop with a lemony yogurt dressing, and dinner is done.
2. Potsticker Noodle Bowl
Assembling potstickers can be time consuming, so when you
want all of the flavor with minimal effort, this deconstructed dumpling bowl
fits the bill. Lighten up on the Sriracha if you want a less spicy bite.
3. High-Protein Sushi-Inspired Chicken Salad
Sushi flavors like soy sauce and ginger give this chicken
salad a unique taste. Add in fresh avocado and scoop with nori squares for fun
and more umami flavor.
4. Chickpea Lemon Skillet
Flag this one for Meatless Monday. Sauté canned chickpeas
with onions and broth, mix in lemon zest and juice with Greek yogurt and add
crumbled feta cheese. Each serving has 15 grams of protein and 10 grams of
fiber, making this a nutritionally superior dish.
5. Pistachio and White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats
Now jumping on the Dubai Chocolate everything trend, these treats
are flecked with pistachio butter and white chocolate, drizzled with dark chocolate.
Sprinkle some butter-toasted kataifi on top for even more Dubai texture and flavor.
6. Lemon Curd Chia Pudding
Since we’re all fibermaxxing these days, we want fiber in
everything, even our desserts. Setting coconut milk and lemon juice with chia
seeds adds protein, fiber, and thickens it naturally. Sweeten with your
favorite sugar, honey, or syrup.
7. Zucchini Halloumi Skewers With Lemon Parsley Dressing
We can’t make enough zucchini recipes once August hits and
we’re always looking for something new and different. This recipe pairs
halloumi, a grilling cheese, with ribbons of zucchini on a skewer (bust out
that mandoline) and grills them. Serve as an appetizer or a light meal.
8. Green Summer Rolls With Mango Miso Sauce
When it’s too hot and we want a chill dinner, we reach
for these crisp and fruity summer rolls. The sweet and spicy sauce and crave-worthy
and the whole thing is low effort, maximum flavor.
9. Basil Ice Cream
Too much basil in the garden? This herby, bright ice cream
is the perfect use for it when you’ve already pestoed to your hearts content.
Because this recipe is eggless, it stays light and refreshing.
