Easy, low effort meals that I’ve tried and made for my husband and I. We’ve been trying to eat healthier especially now that I’m on a GLP-1 journey.

One Pan/Bake Dinners
Great for a low carb dinner. Can be made all veggie or with ground turkey or ground beef. And it’s easy which I always love
Zucchini Bake
Now if you don’t like cheese this isn’t for you but it’s a keto meal so it works and is low carb. I put lots of broccoli in this and since there’s no pasta it’s super filling.
Keto Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli Bake
I’m all about quick meals and this one is a favorite here. My husband loves anything with lemon so I’ll serve this with broccoli or green beans and he’s a happy guy.
One Skillet Lemon Garlic Chicken Recipe | Little Spice Jar
I save putting the cheese and lime juice til the last few minutes because it does get a bit watery but still very tasty.
Salsa Fresca Chicken Bake
These are one of those meals that you can mix it up with whatever meat and vegetables you want. Super easy and super yummy. If you want to make it more filling or carb heavy make with rice or noodles.
Turkey and Vegetable Skillet
Great comfort food. Easy for meal prep and quick to make. So so good.
Green Chili Chicken Enchiladas
This is probably the easiest meal I make when I’m in a rush and I’ll get a rotisserie chicken when I’m even more “lazy” my husband loves eating these before work or even taking them for lunch
Great option when you want to mix it up from beef and broccoli.

Pasta Favorites
I’m not a big sun dried tomatoes fan so I’ll sub cherry tomatoes and when I don’t want to make pesto I’ll do Kirkland from Costco or Buitoni. Such a yummy recipe
Tortellini Pesto Pasta Salad
I love anything with tomatoes and basil so I make a version of it in some way and when I crave pasta this is how I make it. Super easy and you’ll have leftovers

Flavorful and perfect for a weeknight dinner. Rich, creamy and cheesy

Crockpot Dinners
This is THE easiest meal I make. I keep homemade taco seasoning on hand and I’ll buy fresh salsa if I don’t make it myself Dinner prep is done in 10 minutes.
Crockpot Salsa Chicken
Very easy to make and I’ll use a rotisserie if I’m in a hurry. I don’t add the cheese until I serve and it’s perfect.
Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
Love getting in my protein while still being able to eat bacon. My husband really likes this one.
