Honey Buttermilk Cornbread
Don't go for the boxed stuff - my cornbread is made with fresh, all natural ingredients. You'll know the difference when you taste it!

Veggie Frittata for One
This is one of my top, go-to dinners. Make this with any veggies you have one hands: chopped broccoli, shredded carrots, onions, bell peppers, spinach - the possibilities are really endless. For a complete meal, add some brown rice to the mix. 

The Queen's Chicken Salad 
...or as I know it best, Reina Pepiada. This traditional Venezuelan dish consists of an avocado chicken salad stuffed inside of a crispy arepa. Rich, creamy, and so very healthy! The salad is also perfect between whole grain bread.

Brown Orzo Risotto
Here's my fake-out on traditional risotto. Instead of short grain rice, I used whole wheat orzo pasta. It has the shape of rice, but is packed with protein and fiber, so it's a meal in itself, as well as a fancy, easy side dish.

Broccoli Parmesan
This rock star recipe turns what would be boring steamed veggies into a delicious side dish. All it takes is a few ingredients (which you most likely already have), three steps and 30 minutes.

Speed Racer's Roasted Sweet Potato
You didn't think you could roast a potato in 15 minutes, did you? Sweet potatoes are like a gift from the earth - naturally sweet and extremely healthy. At about 100 calories each, they make a great side dish and an even better snack.

Pork Be Tender: 3 Ways
I couldn't decide which of my go-to pork recipes to share with you, so I went with all three. They're each as easy and as flavorful as the next, so make your favorite, or make all three!

The Pig is the Blanket
… and in the blanket is a stalk of bright green, crisp asparagus. This fancy appetizer is anything but complicated. Don’t wait to impress your friends with this. Splurge on yourself – you’ll see how a little bit of a fancy ingredient can go a long way. 

Tangy Soft Steak Tacos 
Taco night doesn’t have to mean a huge production. I can put these together any night of the week in less than 30 minutes, and so can you!
