We all do it.
We vow to ourselves that we’ll commit to being healthier at the end of every year.
It’s a hard commitment.
What I’ve learned about prioritizing my health is that it’s all about planning and prep.
When I prep foods to eat throughout the week, I actually eat them!
When I schedule my workouts into my days and put them on my calendar, I actually do them.
When I plan anything, I generally keep up with it better than if I hadn’t planned at all.
Why not set yourself up and save these healthy recipes to kick off your 2021.
They range from salads, to proteins to desserts, and can be cooked in a number of ways like a pressure cooker, or air fryer.
Enjoy these recipes, and be sure to pin them for later!
Eggs poached in tomato sauce makes a flavorful, and easy breakfast. Start your year with this Shakshuka. Keep tit plain with spices, or add feta for a little bite.
Kale salads are my favorite. They're nutrient-dense, filling and fully of fiber. This salad includes kale, olives, pepitas, tomatoes, red onion and chickpeas for a delicious and satisfying dish.
Wedge salads are simple, delicious, and you can put your spin on it however you would like. With just 4 ingredients, this is an easy salad to add to your rotation.
Another kale option, but a take on Caprese salad. Make my spicy chimichurri sauce alongside this salad for a plant-based bite.
This salad screams colorful and uses in-season ingredients that are still available and accessible at the early end of the year. The combination of tangy goat cheese and sweet pomegranate are unforgettable.
Brussels sprouts, bacon and a dijon dressing are a really delicious combo. You'll actually be surprised by how delicious raw Brussels sprouts are.
Another brussels sprouts recipe, but this time cooked. The same magical combination of the triple B's with butternut squash added.
You can use as much or as little pasta as you'd like in this dish, but it is a wonderfully flavorful soup. You can also cook a whole chicken in under an hour with this recipe.
A hangrywoman.com favorite, my pan roasted chicken thighs and creamed spinach recipe is always a home run with juicy, flavorful chicken thighs. It's a one-pan dish, too!
If you've got a pressure cooker and 45 minutes, you can make chicken for an entire week with this recipe. Use any flavor combinations you'd like. The method is awesome and a huge time and money saver.
WIngs are little gems. These berbere spiced wings are crispy and made with very little oil in the air fryer.
Butter chicken is spicy, flavorful and it falls apart so effortlessly. Pair it with cilantro cauliflower rice!
If you love to grill, bust yours out for some spatchcocked chicken. Crispy skin, great grilled flavor, and a nice peach jam to glaze it!
Looking for a sweet option? The lemon loaf is just like my favorite Starbucks version. It's low carb and keep well for a little sweet snack!
Another lemon treat! My lemon bars are so tart and delicious. The delicious custard paired with a low carb crust is the perfect combo.
This is one recipe my husband asks for over and over again. With olive oil, lots of lemon and oregano, these simple flavors make a great chicken. Add your veggies of choice!
Garlic, butter, and steak - what more could you ask for?
If you like Chipotle, you can actually make your own version of their steak bowl at home. You can use that garlic butter steak recipes above for inspiration!
