Hands down, Cornish Game Hens & Wild Rice Stuffing is one of my favorite fall meals! This recipe is pretty easy but makes for a beautiful presentation and it’s a break from the norm. I usually cut them in half to serve, no one can usually get through a whole one on their own. Adding the dried cranberries and apricots enhances the wild rice with a little pop of fall colors. And the slivered almonds adds a crunch with every bite. Impress your family and friends with this delicious dish!
Chicken Lettuce Wraps are the perfect answer to a healthy lunch or light dinner. I must admit, fall hit and I went into full blown comfort food recipes. So, in order to tip the scales (bad pun?), I wanted to share this tasty recipe with you.
White Chicken Chili is a hearty, yet light meal, perfect for lunch or dinner and packed with flavor. As I near the end of my 30 days of clean eating, this recipe has been a family favorite. Clean eating for 30 days is definitely a challenge for me, I’d be lying if I said differently. I definitely have to supress some of my creative juices for cooking and creating with my normal free range. However, I always feel so great after I’m done, so proud that I did it and losing a pants size doesn’t hurt either. It also forces me to think outside my comfort zone about healthy meals I can create that also taste great.
A couple times a year at our house we focus on clean eating for a whole month, usually right before summer begins and then again in early fall, before the holidays hit. I really believe in living life in moderation, in all aspects, as much as possible. This light & easy Turkey Chili is the perfect meal to whip up when you’re looking to prepare a quick healthy meal. It’s so flavorful, you’ll never notice it’s missing beef and/or sausage. The ground turkey seems to absorb all of the chili flavors, so it ends up tasting like a delicious bowl of chili and not necessarily like turkey at all. Clean eating is cooking with fresh, organic ingredients, eliminating all processed foods, alcohol, caffeine, gluten, sugar, dairy and soy. I find that doing this a few times a year is like a reset button for my body and I end up feeling great. Of course I also end up feeling like I’m really ready for a glass of wine!
