On the heels of the holidays, you might be looking to introduce good-for-you options into your busy week. Or perhaps there’s a favorite dish that could use a little reinventing. Either way, if you’ve found yourself thinking “out with the same old,” here are some quick and easy ways to shake things up.
Fall in love with a new salad. How long have you been serving the same go-to salad? Why not mix things up with this colorful Roasted Beet and Farro Salad, drizzled with our tangy Fuji Apple Vinaigrette Dressing. If you like Asian flavors, try our Asian Sesame Power Salad for a satisfying combination of flavors and textures, tossed with Asian Sesame Vinaigrette Dressing.
Go for grains. Nutrient-rich grains like quinoa give you a boost of protein, fiber, and iron and are relatively low in calories. Quinoa is also easy to make and incredibly versatile, so it makes a delicious addition to salads or sides. Try it in a flavorful Fuji Apple Kale & Quinoa Salad or a delicious Butternut Squash Quinoa Skillet.
Try a new twist on an old favorite. The winter months are prime time for soups and hearty favorites. How about trying this fun and flavorful idea for Turkey Pot Pie, made with our popular Baked Potato Soup. Or for a tempting twist on a classic, how about a dish of Cauliflower Mac & Cheese? Pair it with an energizing Harvest Grain Salad and you’ve got one amazing meal. That’s what we call fresh thinking.
As a new year takes off, there’s no better time to rethink mealtime and try new combinations. Hit restart with these ideas for good-for-you meals—and fresh takes on old favorites.
