If you’re anything like us, eating healthy is hardest at night. Want to make your dinner low-carb? Want some healthy inspiration for after the meal? Yes, classic lasagna is delicious, but when we’re craving something a tad less carb-heavy, we turn to this summery zucchini version. Get the Zucchini Lattice Lasagna recipe. If you throw chicken into a pan with salt and pepper and bake it for forever, of course it’s going to be terrible. We know this sounds obvious, but it’s what so many people trying to “eat healthy” do.
Get the Lemon Pepper Baked Chicken recipe. The beauty about these bowls is that they’re infinitely adaptable—you can roast just about any veggie, use any number of toppings, and it’ll taste amazing in this recipe. The only thing we might insist you must keep on the bowl is the incredible peanut dressing. If you’re a fan of crispy savory egg rolls, then you might consider this unwrapped version your dream healthy dinner. Without the need to wrap or fry, this veggie-packed meal comes together in well under an hour. Get the Egg Roll Bowls recipe.
This hearty “meat” loaf is made mostly out of chickpeas and baby bella mushrooms. For best results, use extra-firm tofu that has been frozen so it can absorb flavors more readily, and simmer the tofu in salted water briefly to make it hardier and less likely to crumble when jostled in the pan. A lightened-up version of our fettuccine Alfredo can you feel a little bit better about pasta nights. Skipping the heavy cream and using just a little bit of Greek yogurt still gives you a lusciously creamy sauce you’ll love. We love the classic fish and chip combo and normally turn to our favorite beer battered fish when the craving hits. But frying can be messy and sometimes we’d like to skip that part—this air-fryer fish is the perfect substitute. A mix of bread crumbs, Italian sausage, and fontina make this one of our absolute favorite zucchini recipes.
Get the Italian Sausage Stuffed Zucchini recipe. All the spicy, garlicky flavors of your favorite falafel sandwich get deconstructed and stuffed inside bell peppers. Get the Falafel Chickpea Vegetarian Stuffed Peppers recipe. Most of the time, we don’t get very excited over pork chops. Often overdone, they come out dry, sad, and flavorless. Get the Air Fryer Pork Chops recipe.
In a dish that brings summer vibes to the table no matter the season, king trumpet mushrooms mirror the sweet, delicate flavor of sea scallops. Nestled into a colorful and crisp corn and snap pea succotash, this date-night-worthy dinner is sure to impress. Get the Vegan Seared “Scallops” with Succotash recipe. There is something magical about grain bowls. All of the components are great on their own, and once they’re tossed together, they somehow become even better.
Get the Spicy Salmon Bowl recipe. Even seafood haters can get behind this blackened tilapia. The mild-tasting fish gets a delicious flavor-packed spice rub from brown sugar, cumin, paprika, and oregano. Serve the fish topped with a super-easy avocado salsa—or don’t. It’s delicious enough on its own. We love a good twice-baked potato when we’re craving something creamy, carb-y, and comforting.
