Keep Your Health Goals on Track With These 30-Minute Recipes

On a mission to improve your health in 2019? You may be on the search for healthy recipes that are simple to put together. While in-depth dishes are fun to make on occasion, most of us lack the time for a multi-step meal process each night. When you’re looking for something healthy and delicious that’s ready in 30 minutes or less, consider the recipes we share here.

15-Minute Miso Glazed Salmon

Wild-caught salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids and is also packed with protein. As an added bonus, salmon is easy to prepare and can be ready in just 15 minutes. If you’re in the mood for a sweet-and-savory combination, try this miso glazed salmon recipe. The union of brown sugar, soy sauce, and miso make this dish a favorite at the dinner table, so pair it with your favorite veggie for a balanced meal. If you’re hoping to minimize prep time and maximize nutrition, simply with a few handfuls of spinach in a pan coated with olive oil and toss with garlic and sea salt.

One-Pot Black Bean and Sweet Potato Quinoa

Looking for a flavorful meal that’s packed with complex carbs, protein, and fiber? This one-pot black bean and sweet potato quinoa medley checks all the boxes. As the name suggests, this vegetarian-friendly meal cooks in just one pot and is ready in about 30 minutes. After softening the sweet potatoes and quinoa to your desired firmness, you can add extra flavor and healthy fat by topping the dish with fresh avocado.

Lemon Chicken Skillet Dinner

Savory and citrusy lemon chicken is a classic comfort food, and this one-skillet version is lightened up and perfect for serving up on a weeknight. In addition to thinly sliced cutlets of lean chicken breast, this simple dish is rounded out with French green beans, cremini mushrooms, and red potatoes for a hearty serving of vegetables. If you have an oven-proof skillet and 30 minutes to spare, this meal is an excellent choice for a nutritionally dense lunch or dinner. The lemon chicken recipe shared here yields four servings and is a great meal prep option, so it’s easy to store and reheat.

Cooking fresh, healthy meals doesn’t have to be complicated. One-pot recipes that are ready in 30 minutes or less can ease the stress associated with meal prep, and they’re easy on your wallet, too.
