Turkey Sausage Patties with Lemon Spinach
I'm really excited about these turkey sausage patties with lemon spinach. Let me tell you why...
If I'm being totally honest, I eat eggs for breakfast a lot. Scrambled, fried (or "bubble" as my boyfriend calls them), in an omelet, poached, hard-boiled. Literally, I like them all.
But sometimes, a girl's gotta switch it up a little bit. And with my experience working with nutrition clients, I know that not everyone feels the same about eggs as I do. In fact, one of the most frequent requests we get is for egg-free breakfast recipes.
If you have ever found yourself wondering if a paleo breakfast without eggs is possible, bookmark ...

Herbed Chicken Omelet
With most things in life, simpler is better. And this herbed chicken omelet is no exception. With fresh herbs of your choosing, cooked shredded chicken, and eggs, this omelet is packed with protein and flavor for the ultimate, simple breakfast.
Now, when most people start to eat "healthy," a common complaint we might hear is that the food is so bland. Most of the time, this is because people are actually eating BLAND food. Boiled chicken and steamed vegetables are as bland as can be.
I always encourage these people to actually flavor their food. Crazy idea, I know. But spices - especially the ones from Trader Joe's - are a ...

All About The Plant Paradox Diet
From the moment we’re smart enough to understand, we’re told we need to eat fruit and vegetables. So when a diet tells you to abandon these healthy foods, of course, it’s going to be called a paradox.
The Plant Paradox diet is highly controversial, based on avoiding the lectin proteins found in plants.
It's the creation of a former heart surgeon, Steven Gundry, who claims lectins produce inflammation. This inflammation can lead to weight gain and diseases, so his diet avoids them—we’ll examine the results of this in detail.
To achieve this, we delve into the following:

Shrimp and Veggie Chowder
The changing temperature outside makes me want to eat all the soups, stews, and chilies. This shrimp and veggie chowder hits the spot for chilly autumn nights.
Of course, some people might say the star of the show in this recipe is the shrimp. And I'd agree with that. But I don't think we should overlook the crazy amount of vegetables in this yummy chowder either. Get your veggie on in a completely delicious way when you eat just one bowl of this chowder.
"What veggies specifically?" you may be asking. Well, I'm partial to carrots, celery, onion, red bell pepper, and zucchini. But quite honestly, you could use whatever sounds good ...

I know what you might be thinking...what kind of craziness is this recipe? But let me tell you that these chicken thighs are so dang good. ...
