I meal plan, which means I make a menu for the week or two and I make all my food in 1 day & freeze it. So basically I have healthy "TV dinners" everyday. Some tips I have for this is buy the same size Tupperware (shallowish squared) so you can stack several in the freezer so it doesn't take up so much space. Buy stuff on sale and use coupons. Last week I got 5 packages of ground turkey, normally $6/each for $3.99 so I stocked up and bought as many as they allowed.
First up is my new favorite snack dip
Jalapeño Ranch

I liked her recipe but I changed mine up a bit. I doubled the sour cream and ranch packets but kept the cilantro and jalapeños the same. I LOVE this dip. I use the light sour cream.
That stuff is so damn good. It's hard to stop eating it.
Next up is carrot fries!

I use Greek Seasoning because it's the best
Don't skip this step of placing the "fries" on a paper towel. Maybe I just use too much olive oil but yeah just don't skip that step.
Next is spaghetti squash!
No link because the sticker tells you how to cook it
Cut in half, scoop out seeds and stuff, bake at 375 with squash face down on foil covered cookie sheet for 30-35 minutes, remove, let cool, take a fork and scrape the squash out.
I like to put tzatziki sauce on the spaghetti squash. It tastes good and is pretty healthy.
Another favorite of mine is turkey burgers. I just take ground turkey, season with Greek seasoning, dill, and cayenne pepper and then shape into patties and cook in a pan. So good.
This was a new recipe for me. Cilantro honey-lime scallops
for the sauce I mixed lime juice, honey, cilantro, and paprika. Honestly I just mixed by eyeing it and tasting it. I have no clue how much of each I used. That's the fun part of cooking!!
For the scallops I seasoned with Greek seasoning and then cooked them on the stove in a cast iron skillet with olive oil and butter
Once cooked, place on a plate and drizzle with sauce. Pretty dang tasty.
