Melon with prosciutto is a classic dish. The sweetness from the melon and the saltiness from the prosciutto is just the perfect bite. Add parmesan, some really good olive oil, honey, and salt? All of those flavors just get boosted even more. Absolutely delightful. The perfect no-cook sweet and savory summer dish. Serving ideas: with…

This is one of the meals in my five-day “Good Mood Food” meal plan and a definite crowd favorite. Shy of having someone from Sweetgreen toss this together for you, it’s spot on!

One-Skillet Jerk Chicken and Cabbage

This is kind of like more fun, more delicious way to eat a salad. my chicken breast cooking technique will give you the tastiest, juiciest chicken. cabbage is really low calorie (33 cals per cup!) but really HIGH in fiber, so it’s quite filling.

Whole30 Blackened Fish Taco Bowls

I freaking love fish tacos. George and I lived in San Diego for two years, and fish tacos are basically the town mascot down there. On the weekends, we’d drive to a new neighborhood where we’d never been to try the fish tacos at the best local spot. We were obsessed, and it was honestly…
