Habanero Cheese Grits With Pan-Blackened Fish

Pan-blackening is an easy stove-top technique for preparing fish. Made with olive oil, as ours is, pan-blackening is a healthy alternative to deep-frying and can be used with any type of fish fillet.

Pulled Chicken and Summer Squash Casserole

Anaheim peppers are mild, yet flavorful, often used for chile relleno. They add just the right touch to this hearty main dish, which is perfect for enjoying the late summer bounty of your squash garden or farmer’s market. If they aren’t available, substitute poblano peppers. Serve this casserole with a green salad on the side.

Strawberry Basil Sparkler

Instead of soda, reach for a sparkling water. The bubbles make it a little more fun than plain water, and you can flavor it with any fruit or herbs that you like! Just make sure to read your nutrition labels. Some sparkling waters contain sodium, so look for sodium-free and unsweetened versions.

Grilled Chicken and Tomato Skewers (Low-Sodium)

When people think about eating healthy, they often picture bland grilled chicken on a bed of dry lettuce. While plain old grilled chicken day after day is certainly boring, eating a healthy dinner doesn’t have to be.

Creamy Lemon Tofu Honey Mustard Salad Dressing

Creamy salad dressings are delicious, but they can have a lot of calories and saturated fat, turning what may seem like a harmless salad into an unnecessarily decadent meal.

Lime Pulled Chicken Tostadas With Coleslaw

This recipe utilizes a technique for poaching chicken, to keep it juicy and tender. The shredded chicken is then lightly dressed with lime juice and olive oil, and further enhanced by the lively flavors and crunchiness of the coleslaw. Tostadas are served like open-face sandwiches and are eaten out of hand. They can be a little messy, so serve them with plenty of napkins.

Easy to prepare and full of flavor and texture, this massaged kale salad will be a hit with the whole family. Mangoes add sweetness and vitamin C while the pepitas give it just enough crunch.
