It seems that a lot of us are cutting back on sugar and cleaning up our diets for the start of the new year. Count me inspired and on board! It’s great to read your posts and comments and your dedication has helped me make these last few days my CLEANEST days of the year.
Florida 2004
With our trip to Florida only 1 month away, I have bathing suits on the brain!
So…I was thinking that it would be good to go look back through the LWYD archives and find some of my favorite clean and satisfying meals to share. This will hopefully inspire me to get going with meal planning in the new year.
Curried Millet and Chickpea Stuffed Peppers
Broccoli Potato Soup with Sharp Cheddar
Crockpot Breakfast Porridge *Jen Favorite
Taco Soup (spicy optional)
Vegetarian Chili with Sweet Potatoes
Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal (this might be tomorrow’s breakfast!)
Baked Barley Casserole with Mushrooms and Squash
Chicken Parmesan Burgers *Jen Favorite
Roasted Vegetable and Salmon Quinoa Salad
That should keep us busy for most of the winter…right?
What is your favorite CLEAN recipe?
I love baked oatmeal. It keeps me full for hours. I am so eating that tomorrow am
Me too! And I have some pumpkin the fridge. PERFECT!
Jen, thanks so so much for these recipes
You are so welcome! Let me know what you make and what you enjoy!
Your crockpot porridge looks AMAZING:)
You will LOVE it! And it freezes well, so you’ll have brekkie all week!
My husband must NEVER see your blog. He will realize what an incompetent women he married!! Now if I could somehow slip these recipes under his nose and get him to make them, I will be sitting pretty!!
He he!
Start with the chicken parm purgers…they are super easy and very man friendly! In our house, the BOY is more interested in helping out when there is meat invovlved : )
Love the recipe round-up! And I’m going to FL a week from today!! Eeek–bathing suits already?!?
I thought it would be good to find some of the hearty winter recipes from 2 years ago that I forgot about! How fun! Hope you have a great trip!
Ooh, I LOVE this roundup of clean eating meals! I especially love the veg stuffed peppers. I was a HUGE fan of stuffed peppers growing up, + I’ d love to try a new, healthier twist on the traditional meaty version. Excellent idea!
I think stuffed peppers are such an easy and can be made healthy weeknight dinner. I need to make them more often too. Enjoy!
Ohhh these recipes look excellent. Will definitely be stealing a few of these for our house! I agree though… after the holidays we were eating a veggie / tofu stir fry for dinner and both of us were just like, “OMG it just feels SO GOOD to eat normal food again!
Yes, the veggies taste crispier and the fruit sweeter after a month of indulging in the sugary stuff! These are some of my favorites, so I really hope you enjoy them!
Love your blog!
Those look like some awesome meals. I have a trip coming up in a couple months that I should totally start to use as motivation to eat healthfully. My favorite clean recipes are broccoli with a little cheese, asparagus, sweet potato, and salmon!
I love sweet potato and salmon!!!
Thank you so much for your sweet comment. I’m thilled to hear that you are enjoying my blog : )
Swim suit season is going to be here before I know it!! These recipes look great, especially the quinoa ones.
Swim suit season could be here this weekend…it’s going to be over 50 degrees : ) Luckily, I was able to sneak in a few planks at work today. Ha ha!
These all look great and so does that picture of you!! Congrats on your most clean days, and I hope you’re back to 100%.
Thank you! I didn’t even know I had it but thought it was perfect and positive when I came across it this week. It’s from a family vacation a few years back. I hope you are having a nice start to your year!
I’ve definitely been cleaning up my diet a bit this week, loading up on veggies, Greek yogurt, and grains! All the roundup recipes look delicious.
Thanks for the comment! It might be a new seasonal tradition to share some of my healthy faves!
Baked pumpkin oatmeal – yum!!
I’ve been experimenting with baked oatmeal a lot lately, that will definitely be my next attempt!

Enjoy!
I would also suggest peanut butter banana…it is wonderful!
Thank you for posting so many great recipes. I cannot wait to dig through them and try some!
I figured it was the perfect time of year for a healthy list of easy and satisfying recipes. Thanks for the comment! I hope you enjoy!
