With my recent shift to a hybrid work schedule, it’s especially important that I keep things easy!

Served over baby spinach, this is the perfect easy and light lunch or dinner salad.

Double the recipe and refrigerate to have on hand throughout the week.

Mix it up with different flavors of hummus and different types of vegetables depending on your mood.

It combines weight-loss power foods, eggs and raspberries, with filling whole-grain toast and nutrient-packed spinach.

The protein and fiber help fill you up and the whole meal clocks in at just under 300 calories.

Serve over salad greens, on grilled whole-wheat country bread or tucked in a whole-wheat pita pocket.

Quinoa Avocado Salad

Protein-packed quinoa pairs with creamy avocado in this refreshing grain salad.

It’s the perfect make-ahead side dish to bring on a picnic or take to a potluck.

Veggie & Hummus Sandwich

Or pack it for lunch or enjoy it as a light dinner.

They look impressive but they’re easy enough for kids to assemble themselves for an easy lunch or dinner.

If you’re not a fan of cilantro, mix in freshly chopped basil or dill instead.
