Easy Baked Halibut

Real Food with Sarah

This Easy Baked Halibut recipe is the perfect meal for warm summer nights. This dish is simple to make and is packed with nutrients and flavor.

Halibut is a white fish that is high in protein and low in calories, making it a great choice for those looking to maintain a healthy diet. This recipe can be served with couscous or quinoa, both of which are nutritious grains that add even more flavor and texture to this already hearty dish.

Wednesday

Quinoa Black Bean Salad

Real Food with Sarah

This Quinoa and Black Bean Salad is filled with fresh ingredients and topped with a delicious cilantro-lime vinaigrette.

This simple salad recipe is packed with nutritious ingredients like quinoa and black beans; this dish is not only good for you, but it's also super tasty. And it's easy to make, too - just throw all the ingredients in one pot, and you're done.

Quinoa is an excellent source of essential minerals like calcium, iron, and folate. Black beans are a great fiber, protein, iron, potassium, and magnesium source. They're also low on the glycemic index, which means they won't cause blood sugar spikes after meals.

Thursday

These teriyaki chicken skewers taste great on their own, but you can serve them alongside some rice, quinoa, or a simple green salad.

Friday
