Ok, these Chicken Lettuce Wraps with Peanut Sauce Ok, these Chicken Lettuce Wraps with Peanut Sauce are for when you want to be HEALTHY healthy, but also want a flavor explosion in your mouth 😛 It’s so easy to throw in a ton of veggies the lettuce cup mixture and you seriously don’t even realize they are there. I promise once you make this it will become a weeknight staple! Here’s the recipe.
.
Chicken Lettuce Wraps:
1 lb ground chicken
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sriracha or sambal
1 cup chopped stir fry veggies (I use the ones from Trader Joe's)
1 cup cauliflower rice
3 cloves garlic minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger (optional)
Black pepper & garlic powder
Butter, Iceberg or Romaine lettuce to serve
Fresh green onion to garnish
Peanut Sauce:
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup soy sauce 
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar 
1 garlic clove, minced
Juice from 1/2 lime 
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp sriracha or sambal optional
Water to thin out the sauce to your liking
Instructions:
In a large pan over medium heat, saute garlic, ginger, veggies and cauliflower rice in a drizzle of oil. Once veggies start to soften, add ground lean chicken and season with a dash of pepper and garlic powder. While that cooks, make the peanut sauce!
Combine all ingredients. Add in water 1 tbsp at a time until you get desired consistency.
Once chicken is cooked, add in soy sauce. You may need to drain out excess water beforehand. Serve on top of lettuce and top with fresh lime wedges, green onion and peanut sauce. We also added the crunchy sesame sticks from @traderjoes on top for some crunch. Makes about 4 servings!

Salad is one of my favorite foods EVER. I know it Salad is one of my favorite foods EVER. I know it sounds weird, but it’s so easy to pack in a ton of delicious ingredients and flavors into one meal and they always leave me feeling sooo satisfied. Obviously it can’t just be any salad though! This one is super special because it’s topped with crispy chicken tenders, which should honestly be a mandatory salad ingredient. Just as important as lettuce in my book. Here’s how to make this beauty!
.
Ingredients:
3 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
2 cups arugula 
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved 
1 avocado, cubed 
1/2 cucumber, sliced 
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
3 tbsp red onion, diced 
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup croutons, I used the spicy mochi rice nuggets from @traderjoes 
1 lemon, juiced 
Kosher salt & pepper to taste 
Dressing of choice to taste (I used @primalkitchenfoods ranch)
Oven-Baked Crispy Chicken:
1 lb chicken tenders 
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup flour 
1 cup breadcrumbs 
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder 
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Place the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs + spices in 3 separate shallow bowls.
Coat each chicken tender in flour, then egg, then the breadcrumb mixture then place on the baking sheet.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until cooked through and crispy. You can also pan fry these!
In a large bowl, combine all salad ingredients. Top with your crispy chicken and enjoy! Makes about 4 servings.

In case you missed it, I made these UNREAL Morocca In case you missed it, I made these UNREAL Moroccan Spiced Brown Rice Bowls with Parsley Feta Dressing yesterday and felt like this recipe needed to be posted again 🤩 I’ll leave the link up in my bio over the weekend for my live cooking segment so you can cook along with me if you want! Regardless, this recipe is a MUST MAKE. Enjoy! xx 
.
Moroccan Spiced Lamb & Brown Rice Bowl
1 lb ground lamb (beef works too)
1/2 white onion diced
2 carrots chopped
1 tsp coriander
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp red chili flakes
1 tsp salt & pepper
1 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 tbsp tomato paste
1-2 tbsp avocado oil optional
For the Bowl:
Brown rice
Fresh lemon wedges
Fresh dill
Arugula
Tomato
Cucumber
Feta cheese
Pickled red onion
Parsley & Feta Dressing
1-2 garlic cloves
1/2 cup parsley leaves
1/3 cup Feta cheese
2-3 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup water
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions:
Heat a non stick pan to medium/high heat and add in ground lamb. Brown for about 5 minutes then use a slotted spoon to remove the meat from the pan and set aside. 
Add white onion and chopped carrots to the same pan, adding a drizzle of avocado oil as needed (the juices from the lamb should suffice). Sauté until carrots become soft and onion becomes translucent. Add all the spices and combine.
Add the lamb back in with tomato paste and 1/2 cup water. Let it simmer until the water is absorbed.
Serve with brown rice, arugula, tomato, cucumber, feta cheese, pickled onions (recipe on my site!), feta cheese, Parsley & Feta dressing and a fresh lemon wedge. I also used fresh dill as a garnish!
Parsley & Feta Dressing:
Blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Place in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve. This is amazing on just about anything, to be honest!
Makes 4 servings.

Can’t believe my leftovers turned into this gorg Can’t believe my leftovers turned into this gorg salad in literally 5 minutes 😍 This Chicken Shawarma No-Dressing Salad is the perfect nourishing lunch to fuel you through the rest of your day. Not trying to throw shade but @cava has nothing on me 💅🏼
.
Heated up leftover Chicken Shawarma from @traderjoes but I also have a recipe on my blog! Base is romaine lettuce, cucumber and tomato. Topped with chicken shawarma (falafel would be great too), feta cheese, pickled red onion, crushed pita chips and some salt & pepper. I added tzatziki and red pepper hummus on the side (both from @traderjoes). This is perfect to act as a low cal/fat dressing! I also have a recipe for pickled onions on my blog- just add one thinly sliced red onion, 1 part water, 1 part apple cider vinegar, 1 part white vinegar (or just use all ACV), pinch of salt and a splash of maple syrup to a mason jar. I always keep these in my fridge and they’re ready in about an hour!

I was recently interviewed on @lizmoody’s podcas I was recently interviewed on @lizmoody’s podcast and when she asked about my tips for becoming more confident this one came to the top of my mind right away: Take a Selfie 🤩 Cute outfit, good lighting, whatever you need to feel super good about yourself. You can post your pics, share them with friends or just keep them for yourself on a day when you aren’t feeling your best. It’s important to feel comfortable and confident. Quite honestly, it’s the key to success in SO many aspects of life! ❤️

Was craving takeout vibes tonight so I made a big Was craving takeout vibes tonight so I made a big bowl of Sweet & Sour Shrimp with green beans and brown rice 🥡 Safe to say the spot has been hit. The sweet & sour sauce I made is sweetened with honey so there’s no refined sugar or artificial ingredients like the store bought or restaurant versions! Perfectly sweet with a little spice 😋 
.
Ingredients:
1 lb shrimp
1/4 cup soy sauce 
2 tbsp rice vinegar 
1/4 cup honey 
1 tbsp sriracha 
1 tsp sesame oil + more to cook the shrimp 
1/2 tsp red chili flakes 
2 cloves garlic, minced 
1 tbsp tapioca flour or arrowroot starch + 1/4 cup hot water (this thickens the sauce)
Veggies + rice to serve 
Instructions:
Whisk together all ingredients for the sauce except the tapioca flour + water mixture. 
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of sesame oil to coat the pan. Add in your shrimp and cook for a few minutes each side until it turns pink and is no longer translucent inside. 
Once the shrimp is just cooked, add the sauce mixture + flour mixture to the pan. Bring to a simmer until the sauce has thickened.
I used the same pan to saute some green beans with soy sauce and sriracha! Serve with brown rice. Makes 3-4 servings.

My go to snack or lunch lately has been these prot My go to snack or lunch lately has been these protein packed chicken nuggets 🤩 I keep them gluten free by using crushed up cheese crisps as the “breading,” but you can use any crushed up chip, cracker or even regular breadcrumbs! I’ve seen @shutthekaleup do something similar with crushed up plantain chips and it looks FIRE 🔥 Keep this recipe handy for any time you’re craving nugs!
.
Ingredients:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken tenders, cut into bite sized pieces 
2 eggs, beaten 
1 bag @whispssnacks or any cracker or chip, crushed (I use the bottom of a glass to crush them while they’re still in the bag)
Avocado oil 
Ketchup or ranch to dip!
Instructions:
Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Coat your chicken nuggets in the egg wash then “breading” one piece at a time. Set aside once coated.
Add a generous drizzle of oil to coat your pan and add the chicken nuggets once the pan and oil are hot.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes each side or until chicken is cooked through and crispy. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan and do 2 batches if needed. This ensures they get super crispy!
Dip in your sauce of choice and enjoy!
