Easy Meals for the Win(ter)
With short winter days—and so much to do—it gets tougher to make time to plan everyday meals much less cook them. If you’re looking for something new for the season, try these three easy, nourishing, and comforting recipes.
Turkey, Sweet Potato and Kale Hash
Sauté roasted sweet potatoes with cooked turkey, fresh kale, onions, a dash of cinnamon, and a few other pantry staples to create a warming, colorful, tasty bowl.
Eggplant and White Bean Casserole
Casseroles are the perfect cold weather comfort food. This one is plant-forward, hearty, and can be made ahead of time. With baked eggplant, white beans, tomatoes, garlic and herbs, it’s a perfect dinner for a busy weeknight.
Winter Cobb Salad
Salads may not be top-of-mind when the weather gets colder. But this one is an exception since it’s loaded with seasonal flavors such as butternut squash, dried cranberries, chestnuts, and apples. Topped with cooked chicken and a maple-Dijon vinaigrette, it’s perfect for the season.
Note: Since everyone’s health history and nutritional needs are so different, please make sure that you talk with your doctor and a registered dietitian to get advice about the diet and exercise plan that‘s right for you.
