Mango Chicken Skewers
Cooking meat on a stick is actually one of the oldest methods of food preparation, possibly dating back millions of years to when cooking with fire became a thing. Makes sense since sticks were used long before forks and knives; they definitely predate those $40 stainless steel skewers from Williams-Sonoma. While these mango chicken skewers aren’t quite what a caveperson might have whipped up, they’re an excellent choice for the modern human looking for a clean, delicious mea

Once roasted, the insides of the spaghetti squash turn into stringy pieces that resemble noodles. And after they’re co

Coconut and Lime Cauliflower “Fried Rice”
Cauliflower is lighter on the carbohydrates than rice, absorbs the flavor of almost anything you cook with it (in this case, creamy coconut milk, zesty lime juice, and fresh cilantro), and bumps up your vegetable intake. It might sound strange, but once you process the budget-friendly veggie into to small pieces, it really does look like rice! This “fried rice” recipe makes a large batch (8 servings) and extras store well in the fridge. So, if you’re not serving a crowd, wrap


Mexican Chicken Zucchini Boats
These boats are a healthier spin on chicken burritos, swapping in nutritious zucchini for flour tortillas. A typical flour tortilla contains 25 grams of carbohydrates, 458 milligrams of sodium, and not much else. One zucchini contains 10 grams of carbs, 26 milligrams of sodium, as well as vitamins A, C, and K, and minerals like calcium, potassium, and magnesium. Using zucchini as the vessel is also convenient way to watch your portions without having to think too hard: 1 boat
