SKILLET PROTEIN BROWNIE (DAIRY FREE)
If you love brownies like I do, this Skillet Protein Brownie is a satisfying, dairy free option with plant based protein. It has a moist, fudgey texture that's delicious on its own, and even better with dairy free vanilla ice cream and berries! This shareable treat is low in sugar and high in fiber with a whopping 20 grams of protein per serving! It's the perfect healthy dessert (or even breakfast).
HEALTHY CHICKEN PAD THAI
This Healthy Chicken Pad Thai has the perfect balance of tangy, sweet, savory, and salty with tender chicken, thick rice noodles, mung beans, crunchy peanuts, and colorful veggies. So good! It's also macro-friendly, gluten-free and dairy-free. If you need this vegan, omit the scrambled egg and use crispy baked tofu instead of chicken!
MEDITERRANEAN TURKEY STUFFED PEPPERS
These Mediterranean Turkey Stuffed Peppers are high on the flavor charts and very filling for the calories. These peppers will not only satisfy your tastebuds, but your hunger, too! I love the combination of seasoned ground turkey, lemon parsley quinoa, and goat cheese. It’s one of those things I can eat all week and not get sick of (perfect for meal prep). The kids gobbled these too, believe it or not! Make these vegan using spiced chickpeas and vegan mozzarella.
COLLAGEN ACAI SMOOTHIE BOWL
With the weather heating up, I am finally in the mood for smoothie bowls! This Collagen Acai Smoothie Bowl has no added sugar, a boost of collagen protein, and tons of fiber and antioxidants. It's so refreshing and satisfying! I topped mine with fresh fruit, protein granola, and a little unsweetened coconut.
VEGGIE PACKED PROTEIN MUFFINS
If you or your kids need to get more veggies in - try these Veggie Packed Protein Muffins! These lightly sweet oat muffins are chock full of zucchini, carrot and pumpkin, with optional raisins and spices.

THAI TURKEY LETTUCE WRAPS
Who else loves Thai food? These Thai Turkey Lettuce Wraps are one of those meals we have on repeat because they’re so delicious and satisfying! I just love the savory turkey, fresh veggies, and crunchy peanuts. Not to mention, the peanut sauce is “lick-the-plate” good! These Thai Turkey Lettuce Wraps are dairy-free, gluten-free, and high in protein. For a vegan version, try crumbled tempeh or meatless crumbles instead of turkey.
S'MORES COLLAGEN PROTEIN BLONDIES
The collagen protein bar obsession continues! These S’mores Collagen Protein Blondies have a gooey, chewy blondie texture loaded with cinnamon graham flavor, chocolate and marshmallows, just like everyone’s favorite camping treat. BUT these decadent bars are gluten free and dairy free with way more protein and way less sugar!
PROTEIN BREAKFAST COOKIES (DAIRY FREE)
I’ve made these Protein Breakfast Cookies so many times! They’re irresistibly delicious, super easy, and have awesome macros. Not to mention, these cookies are a great way to use up spotty bananas! The kids love them too, which is sad for me because each “Mommy can I have a cookie?” means one less cookie for mama. Oh well, at least I know they’re eating something healthy!

SOUTHWEST STEAK SALAD
This Southwest Steak Salad has been a favorite for years! I mean, it’s hard not to love a salad with steak involved! The steak is seasoned with chili lime and served over fresh lettuce with sweet corn, black beans, tomatoes, peppers, green onion, and ripe avocado. I am also including my southwest yogurt ranch recipe, but you can totally use store-bought yogurt ranch if you prefer!
