Marinated Eggs, by Diane


I decided to make a new version of marinated eggs because I love ramen eggs so much but have not yet stumbled upon a recipe I love (there are two others on here already!). I made this up at random with pantry ingredients, and this was the BEST combo! I loved these so much and will absolutely make them again. Yum.


Ingredients:

12 jammy eggs, cooked 9 minutes (drop in boiling water for 9 minutes then transfer to ice bath and peel)

1 cup water

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup ume plum vinegar

1 tbsp sesame oil

2 tbsp sugar

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tsp gochugaru

2 tsp black sesame seeds


Directions:

Cover eggs with marinade and refrigerate overnight.

Okra Kimchi, by Diane

 I love okra, and wanted a creative green veggie for the week. I came across this recipe from @korean.roots to turn okra into kimchi and it could not have been easier! This was really good, and while you can have this fresh right away I liked it the more it fermented in the fridge!

Ingredients:

1.5 lb young okra, tops and tails removed and cut into 1 inch slices

4 tbsp kosher salt

1/2 small red apple, minced

3 green onions, chopped (green parts only or can use both)

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp white sugar

3 tbsp gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes)

2 tbsp black sesame seeds

2 tbsp rice wine vinegar

1 tsp sesame oil


Directions:

1. Toss okra in salt, let rest up to 2 hours, rinse and drain 2-3 times. Okra should still be a little salty.

2. Combine okra with remaining ingredients.

3. Serve immediately or refridgerate/ferment in an airtight container.


Tuna Sushi Bowl with Crispy Rice, by Diane

 

I have been craving a chilled, easy lunch recipe for the week to batch cook, and created this bowl out of a few trending recipes I saw online. I used canned tuna for convenience here, but really any protein would work well. I thought this would be great fresh, but it actually worked better after a few hours to sit and marry all the ingredients together.

Ingredients:

3 tins canned tuna (I used fish wife albacore in spicy olive oil)

2 cups crispy rice (click link for recipe)

1 cup julienned carrots

4 scallions, thinly sliced, green and white parts

1 cucumber, thinly sliced (I used a mandolin)

1-2 cups edamame, shelled

2 packets seaweed sheets

2 tbsp black sesame seeds

3 tbsp fried shallots

Sauce: 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp mayo, 3 tbsp chili sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar


Directions:

Combine all ingredients and enjoy!!

Pineapple Pickled Onion Salsa, by Diane


I had some leftover pulled pork from an event this weekend and decided to make lettuce cup tacos, and wanted to make a quick salsa to go with it. This wound up being so good I kept eating it plain with a spoon! It was super quick to make. Yum!

Ingredients:

Tomato (I used plum and grape here), small diced

1 can black beans, rinsed and drained

Diced pickled onions (I do a quick pickle by slicing them and placing them into a jar covered with white vinegar, shake twice daily and ready after 1 day but can leave for longer!)

1 handful chopped cilantro

1 lime squeezed

1 small can crushed pineapple, liquid removed

1/2 jalepeƱo, seeds removed and diced small

Salt, pepper


Directions: Mix well, adjust to taste, enjoy!

Candied Roasted Chestnuts, by Diane

 



This recipe is by @veganbunnyelle, and I thought it would be a cool take on one of my fave winter snacks. It is possible I got a bad batch of chestnuts, because the skins wouldn't peel off the meat itself even though the shells did, but these tasted awful. So, maybe another batch?! Yuck.


Ingredients:

3 tbsp neutral oil

1 tbsp rock sugar (like 10 chunks) (she says on her recipe you can use white sugar if you don't have this)

1 lb chestnuts, scored in an x (see her recipe)

Water


Directions:

1. In a dutch oven or large pot with lid, heat oil over medium heat and add sugar. 

2. Stir continuously until sugar turns amber and melts.

3. Add chestnuts, stir continuously until popping sound slows around 2-3 min.

4. Add water to cover the chestnuts, cover with lid and cook for 25 min on medium heat. 

5. Remove lid and stir, cook with lid off until water completely evaporates. 

6. Enjoy warm or chilled.

Crockpot Pork and Sauerkraut, by Diane


One of my friend's mother uses this recipe to make Pork and Sauerkraut, a PA German tradition for New Years Day. I was a bit skeptical as I don't love sauerkraut and this recipe is fairly heavy on the stuff, but WOW was this one of the best recipes to come out of my kitchen (not the mention the easiest!). Everyone inhaled this stuff, and I will absolutely make this again. Traditionally this is served over mashed potatoes. YUM!


Ingredients:

2lb boneless pork loin  

2 16 oz bags (not cans) of sauerkraut, drained

1 can beer (cheap beer like budwiser is great here)

1 large apple, sliced (I used an unpeeled gala)

1 large yellow onion, sliced

1/4 cup brown sugar (I used slightly less)

1 tbsp butter


Directions:

1. Place ingredients in crock pot in this order: pork on bottom, covered with sauerkraut, sliced apples and onions on that, sugar sprinkled on that, beer poured over top, and butter on last. 

2. Cover and cook on high for 6 hours (or low for 8 hours).

3. Stir the toppings (not the pork) at 3 hours, and every hour after if desired, mixing the kraut/onion/apples until the apples are dissolved by the end.

4. Once finished cooking, shred the pork (it should fall apart easily) and mix into kraut mixture.

5. Serve over mashed potatoes with some of the liquid as gravy.

Fresh Cabbage Kimchi, by Diane

 

I took a cooking class in Seoul, South Korea and we learned to make four types of kimchi. This was a new type for me and I was obsessed with the flavor!! Unlike fermented kimchi, it has more crunch and is tossed with just a bit of sesame oil for an unreal flavor. If you leave it in the fridge at a few days-1 week it begins to get those gut healthy probiotics from fermentation too. Yum!


Ingredients:

1 large napa cabbage

7 stalks scallions, green parts only, sliced into 1/3's

1/4 large white onion, sliced into slivers

4 cloves garlic, minced

Coarse salt

Water

3 tbsp gochujaru (Korean red chili powder- you cannot sub regular chili powder or flakes here!)

1 tbsp fish sauce

1/2 tbsp preserved shrimps

1 tbsp white sugar

1 tsp crushed sesame seeds (or 1 tbsp whole sesame seeds)

1 tbsp sesame oil (use high quality if possible)


Directions:

1. Cut the cabbage in two parts separating the leafy from the stem for each leaf. For the leafy green parts, cut into bite size pieces and set in one large bowl. For the white stems, slice into bite size pieces at a diagonal (instead of straight down, cut diagonally out to expose more of the stem to marinate), set in another bowl. 

2. For the stems, add 1/2 tbsp coarse salt and 1 tbsp water, mix well with your hands and let sit 15 min. For the leaves, add 1/2 tbsp coarse salt, mix well with your hands and let sit 15 min. 

3. While the cabbage sits, mix the seasoning ingredients together (green onion, white onion, gochujaru, fish sauce, shrimps, sugar and garlic) in a small bowl and cover in the fridge.

4. Rinse each bowl of cabbage well with running water, drain, and repeat 2-3 times to get all the salt water off. Then combine the cabbage in a strainer and let sit for one hour.

5. After the hour is up, combine cabbage and seasoning in a large bowl and mix well with your hands (do not touch your eyes or use kitchen safe gloves). Add sesame oil and sesame seeds and mix gently, coating each piece.

6. Kimchi is ready to eat, or it can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

Chicken Crust Pizza, by Diane

 

I have been seeing recipes for high protein pizza made with a crust of ground chicken breast, and it looked like a easy and filling way to have sort of a chicken parm/pizza hybrid for dinners this week! This recipe by Wholesome Yum was super easy and included reheating and storage instructions (also super easy!). I chose some random toppings I wanted but this is easy to change up. This wound up being really good and tasted more like pizza and less like chicken than expected! I actually love it cold, and have made it now 3 weeks in a row! YUM.


Ingredients:

1 lb ground chicken

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

1 large egg, beaten

Seasonings: italian herbs, salt, pepper, onion and garlic powders

Pizza sauce (I used Rao's marinara bc I love that stuff!)

Shredded mozzarella cheese

Toppings: thinly sliced red onion, red sweet/hot italian peppers, arugula, mexican oregano


Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400, line a pan with parchment paper. 

2. Mix chicken through seasonings well and spread evenly onto parchment paper 1/4 inch thick. I did this by placing a top layer of parchment on and then rolling out with a can, then smoothing out the rest by hand. Bake for 15-20 minutes until firm and golden on edges.

3. Let the crust rest for 10 minutes to seal, then add sauce and cheese (I like to spread the sauce and cheese all the way to the edge as the "crust" isn't my fave without it) and toppings and cook for another 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted. 

4. Brown the cheese and toppings under a high broiler and let cool before slicing.

5. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 4 days and reheat on a baking sheet without parchment paper for 10 min at 350. Freeze crust rolled out on a baking sheet until frozen then wrapped in plastic wrap for 6 months, to reheat place unwrap and place frozen crust in the oven until hot then proceed to step 3.

Zucchini Breadwich Sandwiches, by Diane

 






This week for dinners I tried the viral zucchini breadwich trend, which I tried before with pickles and it was a serious hit! This time I used summer zucchini, and flipped the way I cooked it so the cheese was on top instead of below and got super crispy! I filled the breadwich with smoked honey turkey, pickled red onions (I saw a hack online to place leftover red onion in leftover pickle juice!), and a diced pepper tomato spread (roasted tomatoes, sun dried tomatoes, and yellow cherry peppers diced for some smoky heat and flavor!) with arugula and summer basil. While this combo was absolutely a hit, the zucchini still got too soft and it was easier and less messy to eat with a knife and fork. Still delicious!


Ingredients:

1 zucchini, sliced thin on a mandolin

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Italian seasoning and salt/pepper


Directions:

On a baking sheet, top with parchment paper and stack zucchini slightly overlapping to form the shape of a square as in photo above. Top with cheese and seasoning, cooking for about 25 min at 300 (I used my airfryer)3, or until golden and bubbly. Let cool then flip and fold over your fave sandwich ingredients!

Mexican Shrimp Bowls, by Diane

 


I saw this recipe from @calwillcookit and it looked just like the perfect fresh and detoxing recipe needed for lunches this week after 3 weeks of vacation in Asia! This could not have been easier to make and it was DELICIOUS! I made two adjustments here- first, he served them over rice, but I liked them on their own and was trying to do a grain detox, and second, I swapped the sour cream in the sauce for high protein cottage cheese to get more protein in these meals. Both suggestions I would do again so I'm writing them in the recipe below. Yum!


Ingredients:

For shrimp:

1 lb raw shrimp, deveined and shelled, thawed

2 tbsp taco seasoning mix (I used chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, red chili flakes, and mexican oregano finely mixed)

2 tbsp EVOO

For salsa:

1 can black beans, rinsed

1 cup corn, charred (I used one can of corn because summer corn isn't good yet)

1 cup baby heirloom tomatoes, sliced

1/2 cup red onion, diced

1/2 cup poblano pepper, diced

1/2 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

juice 1 lime

salt to taste

pepper

garlic powder

1 tbsp red wine vinegar

For the creamy cilantro sauce:

1 cup cottage cheese

1 tbsp EVOO

2 cloves garlic

1/2 bunch cilantro

juice 1 lime

zest 1/2 lime

salt to taste


Directions:

1. Rinse and drain the shrimp, toss in seasonings, and cook 2-3 min per side in a med heat frying pan until cooked. Set aside. 

2. To make the salsa, stir all ingredients and adjust for taste, set aside.

3. To make the sauce, blend all ingredients in an immersion blender and adjust for taste, using water if desired to get a saucier consistency.

4. Serve all together and enjoy!

Pickle Breadwich, by Diane

 


This week I hopped on the viral pickle breadwich trend where you melt cheese and sandwich slice pickles together to recreate bread. Holy crap this was the best sandwich I've had maybe ever! I chose to make a long wrap like a taco, and made an Italian themed sandwich with italian 6-blend cheese and dill pickles. I filled the inside with ham, turkey, roasted red peppers, red butter lettuce, and thinly sliced red onions. I didn't even need a sauce this was so packed with flavor!


Ingredients:

6 sandwich sliced dill pickles

1 cup shredded cheese


Directions:

1. Dry the pickles and set aside.

2. Spray parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray, then put 1/2 cup of cheese over the bottom, followed by pickle slices and the remaining cheese sprinkled over the top. 

3. Airfry at 400 for 8 minutes or until golden brown on top, flip and continue to cook for another 4 minutes or so until the bottom is also golden brown.

4. Transfer to a paper towel (to catch some excess grease and moisture) and once cool assemble your sandwich and ENJOY!

Protein Crustless Quiche Lorraine, by Diane

 

I saw a recipe for cottage cheese added to eggs to make them more high protein and it gave me an idea to add it into a new egg bake- I love egg bakes for great easy lunches for the week! This week I decided to create a lorraine-style bake and honestly this was really good!

12 eggs

1 8oz container high protein cottage cheese (I like Good brand)

Salt and pepper

cooking spray

1/2 lb thin sliced ham, cut into squares

1 small pack sliced baby bella mushrooms

1 bag spinach

1 yellow onion, thinly sliced into rings

EVOO

1.5 cups shredded parmesan


Directions:

1. Caramelize onions in a large saucepan over medium high heat with EVOO and salt until golden brown and wilted. Set aside.

2. Preheat oven to 375 and spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick cooking spray.

3. Whisk together eggs, then add in seasonings and cottage cheese. Use an immersion blender until smooth.

4. Add in squares of ham (make sure they aren't clumped together), mushrooms, spinach and onions and mix until combined.

5. Bake for 45 minutes or until the middle is set, then top with parmesan cheese and bake for 10 min at 350 until golden brown on top.

Golden Beet Salad, by Diane

 

I found this recipe from Violet Witchel on IG, she just makes super good salads. This was so fast and easy to whip up and I loved the flavors! I used the Air Fryer Chicken Breast recipe here, and it worked great. These were awesome lunches this week!


Ingredients:

4 small golden beets, diced

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2 tbsp EVOO

1 tsp each curry powder, turmeric, garlic powder, salt

cracked black pepper

10 brussels sprouts, thinly sliced

1 bunch rainbow chard, leaves thinly sliced

EVOO

Dried cranberries, nuts, goat cheese (I omitted the goat cheese)

Grilled chicken breast

Honey mustard dressing: 2 tbsp creamy dijon, 2 tbsp honey, pinch red pepper flakes, 1/2 tsp salt, 2 tbsp champagne vinegar, 3 tbsp EVOO and blend until smooth


Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 and roast beets, chickpeas, seasonings, EVOO on one sheet and cook for 30 min or until beets are tender. On the other tray, roast sprouts and chard with EVOO for 5-10 min until warmed and wilted slightly.

2. Combine beets/chickpeas and greens with chicken, cranberries, nuts, cheese and dressing. Enjoy!

Slovakian Lečo, by Diane


I had the most amazing brunch while I was in Bratislava, and I decided to try and recreate it at home. It reminded me of shakshuka but tasted way better for me. As usual, it was much better in Slovakia because the veggies were smaller and more blended and there was more of a sauce to it, but I think I have a way to make it even better at home now! Overall this is a really good and easy dish to make, and I'll post the recipe along with some adjustments for next time (add tomato sauce and smaller dice of veggies). Classically this is served with good crusty bread.


Ingredients:

1 tbsp oil

1/2 cup diced white onion

1 cup diced peppers (I used one yellow, red, and orange)

1 cup tomatoes (I used a 15oz can diced tomatoes)

1 Polish kielbasa, sliced (I charred these for more flavor)

Hungarian paprika, salt and pepper to taste

8 eggs (recipe calls for 6 but I wanted more protein), beaten


Directions:

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium high, add in veggies and cook until translucent. 

2. Add in seasonings and sausage, cook for one minute and mix in eggs stirring constantly until cooked in. (I would add in tomato sauce before the eggs, cooking until flavors combine, and then mix in eggs.)

The Best Fall Salad, by Diane



This is my latest lunch obsession, so quick and easy to meal prep and packed with autumn flavors! I've decided the formula for this to work best is two roasted veggies, one protein, something crunchy (usually nuts or seeds), something sweet (usually apples, dates or dried cranberries), a leafy green, and my dressing creation which seems to remain the same because it goes with everything!! This version is the best so far, so I'm posting it to remember in the future! 

This can make about 3 salads for the week if you use one whole squash, 2 apples, 1 bag of pre-grilled chicken, and about 1 lb of sprouts (dressing amounts remain the same). If meal prepping- combine the veggies and the chicken and cheese, then on the day of eating chop the apples so they stay fresh and add the arugula (so it won't wilt) and pecans (so they stay crunchy!). 

PS- delicata squash is my most favorite veggie of fall, you can eat them with the skin on and when roasted and browned they get almost caramelized. My favorite way to eat them is here, roasted in coconut oil until both sides are fully browned, then tossed with sea salt and rosemary powder (not dried rosemary)- it tastes like thanksgiving and I can eat a whole squash in one sitting!

Ingredients:

1 cup sliced grilled chicken (I use pre-grilled strips for ease)

Coconut oil

Roasted delicata squash

Powdered rosemary

Salt

Brussels sprouts, halved and trimmed

Gala apple, chopped

Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Chopped pecans

2 cups arugula or a large handful

Dressing: 2 roasted shallots, 4 tbsp EVOO, 1 tbsp maple syrup, salt and pepper to taste, 1 tbsp or more ume plum vinegar, 1 tsp dried thyme, water as needed

Drizzle blackberry balsamic vinaigrette on top


Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 and place coconut oil (about 2 tbsp each) on two trays while the oven warms.

2. When the oil is melted, toss the sprouts and shallots with salt and oil on one tray, and the squash with salt and rosemary powder and oil on the other. Coat well and roast until charred, flipping halfway.

3. For the dressing, combine all the ingredients and whiz until creamy. This will stay creamy in the fridge for days. Add the water or more oil if the consistency needs to change, and feel free to adjust the vinegar too.

3. When the roasted veggies are room temp, toss with chicken, apples, cheese, pecans, arugula and dressing. Mix well then drizzle balsamic on top and enjoy!

Mexican Chicken Salad, by Diane

 


This recipe comes from @dayamifrommiami on IG, and I thought it was such a creative high protein recipe for lunches this week! It was super easy, and so so good. I loved it on its own, with chips, and lettuce cups! I also loved the swap of greek yogurt for mayo. YUM. I added the poblano and green onions and they were a great addition! I also removed the avocado so it would last all week, and took out the cheese bc I didn't want it but it did have queso fresco in the original recipe.

Ingredients:

1 rotisserie chicken, shredded

2 8oz cups greek yogurt, plain

1 lime, juiced

1 can fire roasted corn

1 can black beans, rinsed

1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

1 bunch scallions, white and green parts chopped

1 poblano, fire roasted (I use my gas burner for this until black and blistered), diced

Seasoning: salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin


Directions: Mix well and enjoy!

Fish Taco Bowls 2.0, by Diane

 

This weekend I was at the beach and got some blackened bass with peach salsa, with a side of corn and coleslaw. I don't know what possessed me to do this, but I decided to mix it all up into a bowl and it was soooo good I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since! I decided to create my own version with cod and mango salsa and it was so great! Plus it was a great meal prep recipe as it got better in the fridge each day, and was a cold dish to eat on hot days. Yum!

(I saw there was another recipe on the blog for fish taco bowls, so these are titled 2.0!)


Ingredients:

Fish (I chose frozen cod filets that I defrosted, next time I'd use fresh)

Seasoning (I used garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, cumin and merken from Chile but you could use chili powder instead)

Avocado spray oil

Salsa: 2 mangos diced, 2 tomatoes diced, 1 can black beans, 1 can corn, 1 red onion diced, 1 bunch cilantro chopped, 1 lime juiced, salt

Red cabbage shredded

Dressing: 1 cup greek yogurt plain, 1 bunch cilantro with stems, 2 garlic cloves, salt and pepper, 1 lime juiced


Directions:

1. Make the salsa and dressings ahead of time and let them marry in the fridge. I did mine the night before. They get better this way!

2. Season the fish and spray with avocado oil on each side, then air fry at 350 for 15 min or until the fish is 145 internally and flaky. 

3. Serve in a bowl with cabbage, salsa, fish and dressing!

Roasted Asian Cabbage Salad, by Diane

 

I saw this recipe on @starinfinitefood and she makes really creative salads. I tried this and added rotisserie chicken to make it a meal. Overall, this was really good! I like the flavors, they tasted way better through the week, and it was good cold during this heatwave. The only changes I would make are roasting the carrots with the cabbage, and roasting the chickpeas longer because mine weren't dried out and then became chewy. Otherwise I loved this and would make it again!


Ingredients:

For the Cabbage:

1 medium cabbage, chopped

3 tbsp EVOO

1 tsp salt

3/4 tsp pepper


For the dressing:

6 tbsp chopped peanuts

6 tbsp EVOO

1 tsp sesame oil

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 tsp grated ginger

2 cloves diced garlic

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1/4 cup soy sauce

3 tbsp maple syrup

2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp lime juice

1/2 tbsp red pepper flakes


For the chickpeas:

1 15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed drained and patted dry

2 tbsp maple syrup

1/2 tbsp EVOO

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbsp sesame seeds


For the Salad:

3/4 cup matchstick carrots

1/2 cup scallions, white and green parts sliced

1 rotisserie chicken, shredded


Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 425 and add the cabbage and all cabbage ingredients to toss (I would add carrots too). Roast for 30-35 minutes, tossing again halfway.

2. Add just the chickpeas to a dry pan and roast with the cabbage on a separate tray for 20 minutes or until dry (I'd go longer). 

3. While these roast, add the salad ingredients and set aside, make the dressing and set aside, and make the chickpea sauce with the remaining ingredients and set aside.

4. Add the chickpea sauce to the chickpeas and cook another 8 min or until carmelized.

5. Toss the roasted cabbage mixture into the salad bowl and mix well with dressing. Top with crunchy chickpeas.

Mexican Egg Bake, by Diane

 

I got inspired to create this recipe after trying unsuccessfully to remember my last egg bake recipe and failing- but the silver lining is that this creative take on a Mexican chili and Mexican baked eggs was created! Boy am I glad, because oh my gosh this was so soooooo good! So easy, and so dense in nutrition and protein- this was a winner for sure! The mix of flavors and the slight heat in this was also amazing!


Ingredients:

Cooking spray

12 eggs

Salt

1 bunch cilantro, stems trimmed and rough chopped

1.5 tbsp EVOO

1 white onion, diced

1 poblano pepper

1 lb ground turkey

Taco seasoning (I made my own with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt and pepper), to taste

1 15 oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes

1 small can diced green chiles

1 15 oz can black beans, drained

1 15 oz can sweet yellow corn (I found a mexican version with bell peppers in it and used this)


Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400. Spray a 9x13 glass baking dish with cooking spray on bottom and sides and set aside.

2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and a pinch of salt together. Add in cilantro and stir well, set aside.

3. In a large saucepan, heat EVOO over medium high heat. Add onions and brown.

4. While the onions brown, roast the poblano pepper skin over a flame (I had a gas stove so this was easy) until the skin chars and blisters. When cool, remove the seeds and black skin, and dice and add to the onions.

5. Add the ground turkey and taco seasoning to the pan and crumble with the back of a spoon until the turkey is just cooked. 

6. Take the pan off heat and add tomatoes, chiles, beans, and corn to the pan and mix well. 

7. Pour the turkey mixture into the 9x13 dish, then pour the egg mixture over top and mix until combined evenly.

8. Bake for 50 min or until eggs are set and a knife comes out clean.
