Weeknight dinners may seem daunting, but they sure don’t have to be. I partnered with my friends at AdapTable Meals to give you a new weeknight dinner idea that is sure to become a household favorite! I used AdapTable Meals’ pork carnitas and created a healthy and delicious dinner idea complete with a side dish of skillet elote (Mexican street corn) that makes for an effortless meal that the whole family will love. Carnitas stuffed sweet potatoes with skillet elote is perfect for any night of the week.

This recipe for Healthy Whole Wheat Chocolate Muffins is one that will surprise you. Not only are these muffins made from whole wheat flour, but they are also made using non-refined sugar, and despite their healthy ingredients are absolutely delicious! I love having a batch of muffins on hand for the week because it makes for easy breakfasts and snacking with very minimal effort on my part! This recipe is great for easy meal prepping and I find that it really does make a difference when I have something like this ready to go on rushed mornings and when my afternoon sweet tooth kicks in.

This delicious winter kale salad is one that takes the boring out of salad and will have you excited to dive right into this bowl. I recently had a salad over the holidays that inspired me to make my own version of it right in my own kitchen. This salad is healthy, full of flavor, texture, and couldn’t be prettier. I am obsessed with the dressing that uses one of my favorite seasonings, za’atar and has a hummus base that makes for a creamy dressing that is so good to have on hand in the fridge for any salad or veggies throughout the week that you might eat. This kale, grapefruit, and fennel salad with a citrus za’atar dressing is one that you will be making over and over again.

The holiday season has been in full swing, which means more than ever there are sweet treats and decadent dishes being served up wherever we look. I find that during these times it is even more important to stay on top of our health. With the hustle and the bustle of the season, Karuna makes it easy to ensure that I am getting the good stuff that my body needs every single day. Having Karuna drinks on hand, plus staying active, and eating a well-balanced diet are ways that I can fuel my body during a season that sometimes can wear us down.
