Easy Oven-Baked Chicken Shawarma
I LOVE some really good chicken shawarma, but I’m rarely interested in eating it unless I make it myself. My chicken shawarma recipe uses organic chicken breast, so I know I’m consuming quality meat (not unethical and unhealthy factory farmed meat). The spice mixture in this recipe is sooooo yummy… It’s seriously addictive. It’s also really good for you. It’s packed with all kinds of antioxidants and beneficial compounds, including metabolic-enhancing cayenne pepper (if you choose to use it). I like to make a large batch to mix and match with different Middle Eastern-inspired meals or just eat straight from the fridge as a quick protein packed snack.

Rosemary Pan-Fried Chicken Marsala
This meal makes super scrumptious leftovers, so in our house, we make a lot and enjoy eating it all week. For a healthier alternative - and to simplify the recipe - skip the egg/flour coating on the chicken. You can replace the flour mixture with 1/2 Tbsp corn starch in step 10 if you prefer.

Balsamic Crock Pot Shredded Chicken
This dish is pure comfort food that still maintains its health appeal. I will be honest - I typically won’t eat chicken thighs. EXCEPT in this dish. The extra fat content really contributes to the flavor, plus the darker meat has a higher iron content. This dish makes excellent leftovers… Cook once, eat all week!

Chicken Basil Frittata
This versatile protein and veggie-packed breakfast is one of my frequent meal-planning go-tos. Minor tweaks can make this recipe keto, paleo and/or vegetarian. To make it as easy as possible, prep all of the ingredients the day/night before so all you have to do is toss them in the pan in the morning. Cook once and enjoy this meal for multiple breakfasts throughout the week!
* For a keto version, add a side of avocado. For a paleo version, leave out the mozzarella. For a vegetarian version, leave out the chicken and/or mozzarella.
