There are only 33 calories in a cup of cooked cabbage, and it is low in fat and high in fiber. 

Half a cup of cabbage can provide you with 50% of your body’s daily vitamin C requirement, 100% of vitamin K and few quantities of magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium and vitamin B6.

If these are not enough reasons to add cabbage do your weekly meal plan, maybe trying this recipe will convince you! It’s easy and delicious!

I don’t know about you, but when the Covid crisis hit our grocery stores, most of the canned food that was left on the shelves was tuna. Although I’m not a big fish fan, I love tuna, so I bought a few cans and decided to start making more recipes using it.

Here are just a few reasons to add tuna to your diet.

1. Reduces inflammation
2. Aids in weight loss
3. Loaded with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids  
4. High in protein
5. Low in calories and fat
6. Boosts your brain function
7. Promotes thyroid health
8. Rich in Antioxidants

***NOTE*** Make sure to choose tuna canned in water, not oil.

This recipe is healthy, and a SUPER EASY one-skillet dish. Making the sauce in the pan that the chicken is cooked in adds amazing flavor to the dish. While you can eat right away, allow that chicken simmer in the sauce, I’m telling you it’s incredible.

Chicken and Tomato Skillet

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
• 1 teaspoon Garlic Bliss (or other Italian seasoning mixed with garlic powder)
• 1 tablespoon ghee or organic butter
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 can (14 ounces) no-salt added diced tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/3 cup half & half 
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and season with sea salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. Remove chicken breasts from skillet; set aside.

Add ghee to the skillet and melt. Add diced onions and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the broth, tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and half & half.

Place chicken back in the skillet. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 8-10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.

Instead of pasta, which is processed and high in carbs, we used celery for this traditional “spaghetti” recipe. Celery is high in antioxidants and beneficial enzymes, as well as fiber and certain vitamins and minerals. Celery has a decent amount of dietary fiber which is great for digestion. Celery also reduces inflammation and bloating. All of this makes this an amazingly healthy weight loss dish!

Hearty & Healthy Anti-Pasta

1 lb. (grass-fed) beef or ground turkey
1 Jar marinara sauce
1 onion, chopped
1 cup chopped mushrooms (optional)
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
Celery, sliced (3 stalks/1 serving)
1 Tbsp. Avocado or Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Organic Parmesan cheese (optional)

Place the sauce in a medium saucepan over low heat. While the sauce is warming, brown the hamburger in a frypan until done then add it to the sauce. In the same pan, lightly sauté the onion in oil until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté 3 more minutes or until garlic is fragrant. Blend into the marinara sauce and add the mushrooms. Heat the sauce mixture until it is warm, adjusting the heat if necessary.

Sauté the celery in oil until cooked but not mushy. Place cooked celery on a plate and cover with sauce. Add cheese, if desired.
