10 Recipes For When Your Body Just Needs Something Healthy

In This Article:

Don't get me wrong, I love junk food. But sometimes, your body just needs a break.

1. One-Pan Italian Sausage and Veggies

The best part about this recipe is that you can use whatever veggies and sausage you want. I use asparagus, broccoli, and zucchini, but you can also add in corn, onions, peppers, whatever you like!

2. Cajun Chicken Salad with Cajun Dressing

You can also take the chicken recipe and put it with other things, like veggies or spaghetti squash – yum!

3. Lemon Pesto Salmon

This is a favorite of mine. Such a good mix of tangy and rich! I usually have it with some asparagus or broccoli.

4. Breakfast Bowl

If you're looking for a healthy breakfast option, here you go! Not only is it delicious, but it's also vegan and gluten free!

5. Cilantro-Lime Chicken

Super versatile! It can be used with whatever veggie, pasta, or salad you want.

6. BLTA Lettuce Wraps

This is my favorite "should-be-unhealthy-but-actually-isn't" lunch. It's super easy to make, too!

7. Grilled Steak Kebabs

Steak, onion, and peppers – what more could you want? Not to mention, the steak has a simple and amazing marinade.

8. Mediterranean Scrambled Eggs

Another delicious breakfast recipe for when you don't have much time in the morning. Just throw in some extras and create a healthy breakfast to keep you full!

9. Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini Noodles

Skip the crazy carbs and substitute for a veggie instead.

10. Bell Pepper Nacho Boats

Who says nachos can't be healthy? You can still get all the crunch, without the unhealthy chips (I promise, they're just as good!).

Fun fact: I wrote this while on hour 21 of a 24 hour fast. Talk about cravings.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
