Description

Buffalo Salmon Bowls are my twist on classic buffalo flavors—roasted salmon tossed in a tangy, creamy yogurt-hot sauce. Loaded with brown rice, fresh veggies, and a little feta, they’re flavorful, protein-packed, and ridiculously easy to throw together.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Salmon and Sauce:

  • 2 lbs Salmon, skin removed, diced into 1-inch pieces 
  • 3/4 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1/4 cup Hot Sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper

For the Bowl:

  • 2 Cups, Cooked Brown Rice
  • 1 Cucumber, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup Shredded Carrot
  • 1 cup Edamame
  • 1/2 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese
  • 4 Scallions, minced


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Make the buffalo sauce: In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, hot sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon zest, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Coat the salmon: Place salmon cubes on the prepared sheet pan. Add 1/3 of the buffalo sauce and toss with a spatula to coat evenly.
  4. Roast the salmon: Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through (145°F) with lightly browned, crispy edges.
  5. Prep the vegetables: While the salmon roasts, peel and slice the cucumber, shred the carrots, and mince the scallions.
  6. Assemble the bowls: Add 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice to the bottom of each bowl. Top with 1/4 of the roasted salmon, then add vegetables as desired. Sprinkle 1–2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese over the top and drizzle with remaining buffalo sauce. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You will likely have leftover sauce! Save it for leftovers or drizzle on wraps or salads!

Assembly:

  1. Start by cutting a large tortilla into fourths and set aside. These sections will fill in the center of the crunchwrap.
  2. Next, on a flat surface, lay one large tortilla out. Top with 1/3 cup of the lentil filling right in the center. (Note: Resist the urge to overfill here! Too much filling and you don’t be able to fold and close your wrap!)
  3. Sprinkle 2 tbsp of grated cheddar cheese over the lentils. Top that with 1 tostada shell.
  4. Spoon 2 tbsp of Greek Yogurt on top of the tostada shell. (It’s easiest to pickup the tostada, spread the Greek Yogurt and then place over top the lentils and cheese.) 
  5. To the Greek Yogurt, top with 1/4 cup of pico de gallo. (Note: I like to use a spoon and drain a little of the liquid off as i spoon the pico de gallo on so that the crunchwrap doesn’t get soggy.)
  6. Next, place baby spinach over top, just enough to cover the other toppings. If your spinach leaves are large, tear them into smaller pieces as you place onto your wrap.
  7. Then place the 1/4 piece of flour tortilla right in the center on top.
  8. Next, fold the large tortilla over top of the center ingredients. To do so, start with a small section and fold it up and over towards the center of the wrap. Hold that with your finger and then fold another section over top, slightly overlapping each section. Continue folding and holding until the entire wrap is folded closed. Give it a good press down and place a small plate on top to hold your folds while you heat your pan up.
  9. Heat a cast iron pan over medium heat. Add 1 tsp olive oil.
  10. Once the pan is hot, place the wrap seam side down into the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
  11. Flip the wrap over and cook for another 3-4 minutes until nicely browned.
  12. Remove the wrap from the skillet. Slice in half and enjoy!

Notes

  1. If your flour tortillas are a little dry, pop them in the microwave with a damp paper towel for 15 seconds to soften them. Dry tortillas will crack and won’t fold like you want them to!
  2. Other optional add-ons that would be tasty: Guacamole or mashed avocado, swap salsa for pico de gallo if you’re in a hurry, romaine lettuce for spinach.

Description

This healthy blackberry tart features a delicate olive oil crust, tart blackberries and fresh lemon for a show-stopper summertime treat!

 

Ingredients

Units Scale

Tart Dough:

  • 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 3/4 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 2 tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Lemon Zest (zest from 1 medium-sized lemon
  • 1/3 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 34 tbsp Ice Water (as needed to bring dough together)

Tart Filling:

  • 16 oz Blackberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 5 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 3 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp Coarse Sugar (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F
  2. Spray a tart pan or pie pan with nonstick spray, set aside.
  3. In the bowl of a food processor add all the dough ingredients except water. Pulse together for 10-15 seconds to mix the dough. If the dough seems very crumbly, add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time to bring the dough together. It should stay together when you pinch with your fingers.
  4. Grab you pie or tart pan and place your dough into the pan. Using your hands or the bottom of a measuring cup, press the dough evenly into the pan. Start at the center of the pan and work your way out to evenly distribute the dough around the entire pan and slightly up the edges, just as you would a pie crust. Refrigerate your dough while you mix up the filling.
  5. In a medium size bowl, add the blackberries, lemon juice, sugar and flour. Mix together gently with a spatula.
  6. Remove your tart crust from the refrigerator and pour the blackberry filling into the crust. Give the pan a gentle shake back and forth to evenly distribute the blackberries. Top the berries with 1 tablespoon of coarse sugar.
  7. Place the tart pan onto a sheet tray (this is a must if you do not want to spend the next day cleaning your oven!) and place into the oven.
  8. Bake at 400° F for 30 minutes.
  9. Remove from the oven and allow to cool at least 10 minutes before digging in. Enjoy!

Description

Greek Chicken & Chickpeas is a flavorful and flexitarian dinner that will impress your guests and family!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Chicken Breasts, diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2, 15oz Cans Chickpeas, drained and rinsed

  • 3 tsp Oregano
  • 2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Ground Black Pepper


Instructions

  1. Set out two separate mixing bowls, one will be for the chicken, the other for the chickpeas. (Note: If you do not mind the meat and chickpeas mixed together then feel free to use one large bowl!)
  2. To one bowl, mix up the marinade. Add the olive oil, diced onion, garlic, lemon zest and juice, oregano, salt and pepper. Whisk together to combine.
  3. Pour half of the marinade into the other bowl. You should have half of the marinade in each bowl.
  4. Add the chickpeas to one bowl and cover then add the chicken to the other bowl and cover it. Place both bowls into the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.
  5. When you are ready to cook. Heat two large cast iron pans over medium high heat. Add 2 tsp olive oil to each pan.
  6. When the pans are heated, add the chickpeas to one pan and the chicken to the other.
  7. Cook the chicken and chickpeas, stirring frequently, for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the chickpeas are crispy. The cast iron pan will help to crisp and slightly char the chicken and chickpeas. This is good flavor! (Note that the chicken should be cooked through to 165 F).
  8. Serve the chicken and chickpeas over whole wheat naan bread, tzatizki sauce, tomato and cucumber salad and top with feta and kalamata olives. Enjoy!

Braided Pesto Garlic Knots are delicious bites packed with spinach pesto, garlic and cheese. Perfect as an appetizer or side dish!


Ingredients

Units Scale

Instructions

  1. Start by making the Whole Wheat Pizza Dough and Spinach Pesto.
  2. Roll the pizza dough into a square, roughly 12×12 inches.
  3. Using a spatula, spread the pesto onto the dough, leaving about a 1/2 inch border around all sides.
  4. Evenly sprinkle the mozzarella over the pesto.
  5. Next, take the top half of the dough and fold down to meet the bottom. You are basically folding the dough in half here. (Check out the video for a play-by-play!)
  6. Then, using a knife or bench scraper, cut the dough horizontally into 6 sections. You should have 6 rectangles at this point.
  7. Now, take one of your rectangles and vertically cut two slits into the dough, keeping the top portion intact. Continue with remaining rectangles.
  8. Next it’s time to braid! Take one of your rectangles and fold the left dough portion over the middle section then repeat with the left side. Continue braiding until you reach the end of the dough. Then, pinch the bottom of the dough to seal. Now take the end you sealed and roll it up towards the other end. You will now have a braided pesto knot! Continue with the rest of the rectangles.
  9. Place the knots into a 9×9 baking dish and brush with a little olive oil.
  10. Place into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown. Note if the tops get a little too brown, cover with foil for the last 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and serve with marinara sauce or extra pesto. Enjoy!

Description

Homemade granola cups are a wholesome and nutritious breakfast or snack. Fill them with Greek Yogurt and berries for more protein, antioxidants and flavor.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/4 cup Ground Flaxseed
  • 3/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp Peanut Butter
  • 1 Egg White

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a muffin tin with nonstick spray or coconut oil, set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the oats, flaxseed and cinnamon and stir together with a spatula.
  3. To a small microwave safe bowl, add the maple syrup and peanut butter. Microwave for 20-25 seconds just to soften the peanut butter so it is easy to stir.
  4. Next, pour the peanut butter mixture into the oat mixture. Stir together with a spatula, making sure that all dry ingredients are coated in the wet ingredients.
  5. Whisk the egg white with a fork until slightly frothy then pour into the oat mixture and stir together.
  6. Divide the oat mixture into 8 muffin cups. Using your fingers, press the the mixture into the muffin tin to form cup shapes. Continue with the remaining granola cups.

Mediterranean Egg Wrap


5 Stars 4 Stars 3 Stars 2 Stars 1 Star

  • Author: Amy RD, LDN
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 Serving

Description

This Mediterranean Egg Wrap is a mix between an omelet and a breakfast burrito but it is so much better than both of those! Plus, it packs in 31 grams of protein per serving!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Tbsp Greek Yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp Unsweetened Soy Milk
  • 2 tsp Olive Oil
  • 3 Tbsp Red Bell Pepper, diced
  • 1 oz Baby Bella Mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup Raw Baby Spinach
  • 3/4 oz Cheddar Cheese, grated
  • 1 Whole Wheat Tortilla

Instructions

  1. Heat a nonstick skillet to medium heat. Add 2 tsp olive oil.
  2. When the pan is heated up, add the peppers and mushrooms and sautee for 1-2 minutes until the mushrooms are nicely browned.
  3. Next add a handful of spinach and sautee for 1 minute.
  4. While the spinach and veggies cook, whisk up the eggs, milk, Greek Yogurt and salt and pepper in a bowl.
  5. Then, pour the egg into the pan, over top of the veggies. Give the pan a little shake to spread the eggs out evenly.
  6. Place the tortilla on top of the egg mixture and allow to cook for 4-5 minutes.
  7. After 5 minutes, run your spatula around the outside edge of the egg to make sure it will easily release and that it is cooked through.
  8. Using a large spatula, flip the mixture over so that the tortilla is now on the bottom. Add the grated cheese and allow the tortilla to brown for 1 minute.
  9. Finally, roll or fold the tortilla egg up. I find that folding into thirds like a letter works well. Then, give the roll up a little press with your spatula to fully crisp the bottom.
  10. Now, slide it onto a plate, cut in half on a diagonal and dig in!

One of my most popular recipes! Quinoa Greek Salad is a great side dish, lunch and excellent to bring to potlucks!


Ingredients

Scale
Salad Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups Quinoa
  • 3 cups Water
  • 1 pt Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata Olives
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese
Balsamic Dressing Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 2 tsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

For the quinoa and veggies
  1. Rinse the 1 1/2 cups quinoa in a fine mesh strainer. In a medium saucepan, heat 3 cups of water over high heat. Add the rinsed quinoa. Bring quinoa and water to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. The quinoa is done cooking when all the water is absorbed and it is light and fluffy.
  2. Prep and slice veggies.
  3. Peel cucumber and slice off the ends. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon scoop out the seeds. Next, slice each half lengthwise into 1/2 inch long sections. Then stack your long sections together to dice into 1/2 inch dice. Place diced cucumber into a large bowl.
  4. Rinse your cherry tomatoes. Slice each tomato lengthwise (its prettier!). Place into bowl with cucumber.
  5. Slice kalamata olives in half. Place into bowl with cucumber and tomato.
 
For the balsamic dressing
  1. Into a small mixing bowl or mason jar add all dressing ingredients. Whisk until the dressing is fully emulsified. Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings per your preference
Putting the salad together
  1. Once the quinoa has finished cooking add 3/4 of the dressing to the hot quinoa and stir to mix well. This will allow the quinoa to really absorb the dressing.
    Place the quinoa into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  2. Once the quinoa has cooled, place it into a large bowl. Add the cucumber, cherry tomatoes and kalamata olives. Next add the feta and mix together, taking care not to smash your tomatoes. Add the remaining 1/4 of the dressing and mix together. Place the salad back into the refrigerator for 1 more hour. Serve chilled, enjoy!

Place the tray into the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway. Watch them carefully for the last few minutes as the leaves can burn easily.
For the Balsamic Glaze
  1. While the Brussels sprouts roast, make the balsamic glaze. Heat a sauce pan over medium heat.

Description

Flourless and gluten-free and naturally sweetened, chickpea blondies will become a family favorite dessert!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can, 15 oz Chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup Peanut Butter
  • 1/3 cup Maple Syrup or Honey (or a combination)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon, ground
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/3 cup Chocolate Chips +2 tablespoons for top
  • Cooking Spray

Instructions

  1. Preaheat oven to 350° F. Spray an 8×8 inch pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a food processor, add all of the ingredients except chocolate chips and process until batter is smooth. This will take a few minutes to get the batter to a smooth consistency.
  3. Using a spatula, fold in the 1/3 cup of chocolate chips.
  4. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Tap the bottom of the pan onto the counter a few times to get the batter level. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips on top of the batter.
  5. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and the edges are slightly browned. Take care to not over cook! The blondies may look slightly underdone and that is okay.
  6. Allow blondies to cool for at least 10 minutes. Cut into squares and enjoy!

  • Diet: Gluten Free

Description

Refreshing, delicious and naturally sweet. Raspberry Mango Sorbet is the perfect summer treat!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz Frozen Mango
  • 16 oz Frozen Raspberries
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice (Juice from 1 whole lime)
  • 3 tbsp Honey
  • 5 tbsp Warm Water

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processor add the frozen fruit, lime juice, honey and 2 tablespoons warm water.
  2. Process for 1-2 minutes then stop and scrape down the bowl. At this point you will likely need to add a few more tablespoons of warm water to help break up the frozen fruit.
  3. Process again for another 1-2 minutes until the fruit mixture becomes smooth.
    Tip: A little patience is key with this recipe! Sometimes it is helpful to let the mixture thaw for a minute or two and then process again to get the smooth consistency of a sorbet.
  4. After the mixture becomes smooth and cohesive, put the sorbet into a freezer container and place into the freezer for at least 30 minutes (if you can wait that long!)

Description

Black Bean, Corn & Tomato Salad is a simple summer salad with fresh flavors and a spicy avocado lime dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
Black Bean, Corn & Tomato Salad
  • 2 Ears Fresh Corn
  • 1 pt Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1/4 cup Scallions
  • 1 Can Low-Sodium Black Beans (15oz), drained and rinsed
Spicy Avocado Lime Dressing
  • 1 Avocado

  • 1/4 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1 1/3 cups Water
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp Jarred Jalapeño (add up to 1/4 cup for extra spice!)

Instructions

Make the Dressing:
  1. Place all ingredients into a food processor (or blender). Blend until smooth. You may need to add additional water to get the dressing to the consistency you like. Taste the dressing and add additional jalapenos if you like some heat! Using a spatula, scoop the dressing into a mason jar or a container with a lid. Set aside.
Make the Salad:
  1. Prep your veggies. Start with the corn, shuck and rinse each corn cob. Stand the corn cob up on a cutting board and using a knife slice down against the cob, cutting the kernels off. Rotate the cob to cut off the next section of kernels, repeat for both ears of corn then place the corn into a large bowl.

Then half lengthwise into thirds, line up your thirds and cut horizontally making 1/2 inch cuts. Place cucumber into bowl with corn and tomato. Trim the ends off the scallions and then mince and add to your other veggies.
  3. Add the black beans to the corn, tomatoes and cucumber. Mix together with a large spoon. Add 1/4 of the dressing to the salad and mix together. Taste and add additional dressing to your preference. Enjoy!

Description

Simple, fast and delicious! Creamy melted zucchini pasta cooks up in no time and delivers a meal that the entire family will enjoy.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 Medium Zucchini
  • 1 lb Spaghetti Pasta (Look for Bronze, Die-Cut Pasta)
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 3 Garlic Cloves, Whole
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese, Grated
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Take care to not over cook, we want al dente pasta here! But, DO NOT DRAIN THE PASTA WATER! We will use some of the pasta water for our sauce.
  2. While the pasta cooks, work on the sauce and zucchini.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and allow to heat up for 1 minute, then add the whole garlic cloves and cook for 4-5 minutes to infuse the oil with the garlic.
  4. While the garlic cooks, grate the zucchini. Set a clean dish towel out on a counter or cutting board. Over top the towel, grate the zucchini using a box grater. Gather the towel by the ends and then, over the sink or a bowl, squeeze the liquid out of the shredded zucchini.
  5. Slowly, in batches, add the shredded zucchini to the olive oil skillet. (Take care and go slow because the oil is hot!) Cook the zucchini in the oil for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon or spatula. The zucchini will start to break down and “melt” into the oil, this is when it is done. Remove the garlic cloves from the zucchini, discard.
  6. Using tongs, remove the pasta from the pot directly into the skillet with the zucchini. Add the Parmesan cheese and lemon zest, and using the tongs, stir together the pasta, cheese, zest and zucchini. The cheese will melt into the mixture, creating the sauce for this dish. If the pasta seems dry, add a few tablespoons of pasta water to loosen up the pasta and create more of a sauce.
  7. Add salt and pepper and adjust seasonings based on your preference. Serve hot and enjoy!

Continue to cut out the rest of the dough, place on the tray and then bake at 475 F for 5 minutes. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
Broccoli Pesto
  1. Combine the broccoli and garlic scapes into the bowl of a food processor and process for 1 minute.
  2. Add the salt, pepper and balsamic vinegar and pulse again to mix. Next, with the processor on, drizzle the olive oil in through the feed tube. Then add the Parmesan cheese and process once more to fully incorporate all ingredients. Taste the pesto and adjust seasonings to your preference.
Assembling the Pizzettes

Delicious Greek-Style Nachos with Chickpeas, Feta, Tomato & Olives


Ingredients

Scale

Chickpeas

  • 1 lb Dried Chickpeas (See notes for alternative options)
  • 1 tbsp Olive OIl
  • 1 Onion (medium)
  • 4 Garlic cloves
  • 2 tsp Paprika
  • 2 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1/4 tsp Garam Masala (Optional)
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth

Pita Chips

  • 2 Pita Bread
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt

Veggie Salad

  • 1 Cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
  • 1 pt Cherry Tomatoes, sliced in half

Toppings

  • Greek Yogurt
  • Feta Cheese
  • Kalamata Olives
  • Hot Sauce (Optional)

Instructions

Chickpeas

  1. Sort and rinse your dried chickpeas. (If using canned skip this step.) Fill a large bowl with 6 cups water, pour chickpeas into bowl and soak overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 375° F. Drain your soaked chickpeas, set aside.
  3. In a large dutch oven or large pot, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onion to pan, sautee until slightly browned.
  4. Lower the heat to medium-low and add minced garlic and sautee for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Add the spices, salt and lemon zest to garlic and onions and sautee for another 30 seconds.
  6. Add vegetable stock to pot and then the chickpeas (soaked or canned). Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir mixture together and then bring to a boil. Then, turn the heat off and cover the pot with a lid.
  7. Next, put the dutch oven into your preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours, depending on the chickpeas you are using. (If you are using canned, it should take around 45 minutes for the chickpeas to soak up the yummy liquid. If you are using dry, soaked chickpeas it will take closer to an hour to an half and half for the beans to soak up the liquid.)
  8. Once the liquid has been absorbed by the chickpeas they are done. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Toppings:

  1. Slice your pita bread into triangles, drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil and 1/8 tsp salt over top and place onto a sheet tray (Skip this step if you bought pre-made pita chips!)
  2. Bake pita chips in the oven with your chickpeas for 8-10 minutes. Keep an eye on them as they burn easily!

 

Vegetable Topping:

  1. Slice 1 pint cherry tomatoes in half lengthwise. Peel, seed and chop cucumber to 1 inch chunks.
  2. Serve with Greek yogurt, feta cheese, kalamata olives and hot sauce as desired.

 

To Plate:

  1. Set pita chips on plate, top with dollops of Greek Yogurt, then the delicious braised chickpeas, cucumber and tomatoes, feta, kalamata olives and hot sauce. Enjoy!!
 

 

Notes

Notes:
  1. You can make this as simple or complicated as you’d like. Using canned chickpeas and store bought pita chips makes this a week-night winner!
  2. To substitute canned chickpeas use 4 cans, 15 oz each
  3. *This recipe was inspired by several Greek Nacho style recipes and including SmittenKitchen’s Braised Chickpeas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
