Easy High Protein Chicken & Pasta Cucumber Ranch Salad
My philosophy is there are no rules with salad!! If you enjoy it together, put it in there! Salads don’t need to be iceberg lettuce, cabbage and unripe tomatoes if you don’t want them to be. You are the master of your salad so go forth Padawan and make salads the way YOU want to make them.
This salad is PACKED with some of my favorite items and full of flavor but not just that it has over 50g of protein and a huge punch of potassium!

Teriyaki Salmon, Pineapple & Bacon Skewers
All the flavors and textures you could possibly imagine… on a single skewer poked through only three things. These quick and easy to make kabobs are sweet, salty, savory, tangy, crispy and fresh.
Spicy Daddies
These can be whipped up so quickly! Oven on. Mix ingredients. Roll out. By then the oven should be preheated and ready to rock. While mine cooked I grabbed some green beans, threw them in a HOT pan with avocado oil, allowed them to blister a bit, then added red chili pepper flakes, sliced garlic and salt and cooked for another minute or two.
Sweet & Heat Sesame Shrimp
These whip up quick and easy! I keep a bag of frozen shrimp in my freezer at all times because they defrost quickly for those nights where I forgot to go grocery shopping.
Apricot Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Do you love quick and delicious meals? If so, check out this one from coach Emi!
This is such a good mix of sweet, heat, crunch and some extra volume from all of the veggies! You can do lettuce wraps to keep your carbs down or throw it into a bowl with some rice to bulk up the carbs, throw some avocado slices on top for extra fat or even a sriracha mayo. You can also use ground turkey instead of ground chicken if you’re not a ground chicken fan. Plenty of ways to switch things up and keep it interesting!
Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry
This recipe is so quick and easy! You can start your rice up ahead of time — I throw some jasmine rice in my rice cooker, set it and forget it. Cutting the chicken thin and cooking on higher heat makes the process fast, plus it doesn’t dry your chicken out. Not to mention the amazing sauce that packs so much flavor and deliciousness.
Fried Rice Feat. Random Freezer Veg
Quick fried rice with frozen veg for those days that regular rice just won’t cut it.
By keeping some staples on hand you can almost always pack your rice with a ton of flavor. I had a bag of frozen veg, a couple of bags of frozen rice (leftover cooked rice also works great!), jarred ginger and garlic hanging out in the fridge along with their saucy friends and eggs on deck.
Pistachio & Cranberry Brussels Sprouts
If you think Brussels sprouts have to only taste like freshly mowed grass, THINK AGAIN! The trick is to slice them thinly (or be lazy and buy the pre-shaved ones from Trader Joes as I do) and make sure you slightly burn them. That’s where the magic happens.
Root Vegetable Fries
It’s officially my favorite time of year. The weather is warming up and I’m so excited for the barbecue season. And what goes better with some grilled meat or a juicy burger than a side of fries? I love french fries, but they’re one of those foods that I eat mindlessly and before I know it I’ve consumed an excessive amount of carbs! Not that there’s anything wrong with carbs, but I thought, what if I could make them a little lower carb and really indulge? Plus, at any good barbecue, there are going to be a variety of delicious options, so you’ll want to have enough carbs to try everything.
Chopped BBQ Chicken Salad
I am always trying to recreate salads at home and sometimes it can be really hard. They just never taste the same….UNTIL NOW! This salad is super simple and SO GOOD. This salad has very little sodium because I was able to control the ingredients and seasonings. You can adjust the fat content very easily as well by omitting the avocado or using a light salad dressing. It’s also a great salad to make for a large group of people at your next barbecue!
Sweet Potato, Quinoa and Mixed Berry Muffins
I get asked a lot about pre and post-workout nutrition. Nutrient timing if you will. We understand the importance of it as athletes. Eating sufficient amounts of carbohydrates before and after we workout helps with our performance and recovery. Pre and post-workout foods certainly don't need to be complicated. Carbs, carbs carbs. Okay and some protein too. But our bodies need glycogen. And since I love to bake, I decided to work on a high carb, low-fat breakfast muffin that I could grab on my way to the gym either to eat in the car or save for right after my workout. Regardless of which snack you're needing, this one should do the job!
