Side dishes often get, well, pushed to the side, but they’re a delicious and important part of a healthy meal. I’ve got a dozen super-simple recipes, perfect for the busy holiday season. Pro tip: Stock up on freezer-aisle cauliflower rice and veggie noodles to make things even easier.

Rice Done Right

Riced cauliflower is so versatile… It cooks quicker than grains and has a tiny fraction of the carbs and calories. Here are four of my favorite ways to dress it up.



Use Your Noodles

More calorie-slashed carb swaps! From shirataki noodles to spiralized zucchini, these recipes will satisfy a pasta craving in a flash…



More Veggies for the Win

I’m a huge fan of roasted veggies… Big flavor, small prep time. Other time savers in the prep department: frozen spinach, jars of chopped garlic, and slow cookers!



Chew on this:

Happy National App Day, December 11th! Sounds like a great time to give MyFitnessPal, one of our favorite apps, a try…
