It is satiating, satisfying, and filling, but will not make you feel uncomfortably stuffed. Optionally substitute the baby spinach and spring mix with arugula.

A quick beef and broccoli dish that includes tender strips of beef and pops of flavor. The sauce that we used includes flavors of pineapple, garlic, sesame seeds, soy sauce, and onion, which gave this dish a little bit of a tropical flavoring.

A helpful way to eat eggs on the go. The eggs fit nicely into the pita pockets, and can be enjoyed with a variety of your favorite toppings and sides, such as salsa.

Quinoa Chicken in Vodka Sauce with Veggies

This dish is so easy to cook for busy weekdays, and the leftovers are great for lunch at work. Quinoa is loaded with nutrients that some hail it as a superfood. It's high in manganese which is great for bone health. Additionally, manganese helps in the formation of antioxidants which can help shield the body from free radicals that cause damage to cells in the body. Quinoa is also a wise choice for reducing blood sugar—important for those with diabetes. The amount of vodka in the sauce we used is minimal, but feel free to swap the vodka sauce with a different kind of sauce.
