Let's all satisfy the kid in us with these ultra crispy, completely irresistible Baked Coconut Chicken Tenders. We coat tender chicken in a light coconut and panko breading, bake them on a screaming hot baking sheet and then serve them with a quick warm mango salsa and a hot honey drizzle.

Nutty barley tossed in a zippy green tahini sauce, lemony sumac-roasted cauliflower and shrimp, and pops of crunchy pine nuts are the makings of our Green Tahini Shrimp Bowls - our new favorite way to do healthy. Make everything and serve the day of or pack it up and keep in the fridge to serve thought the week.

Twirly noodles tossed in a five-minute kale pesto, tender chicken meatballs, and plenty of nutty parmesan are the makings of our new favorite throw-it-together weeknight meal – Kale Pesto Pasta. Just because it's winter, doesn't mean we have to leave homemade pesto behind. Swapping out hearty wintery kale for a portion of the pesto brings a little seasonal aspect to our pesto and using crunchy almonds instead of pine nuts make this easy meal pocket-friendly as well.
