hey everyone and welcome back to my channel welcome if you're new my name is
Liv and I make lots of healthy and delicious recipes on this channel make
sure to subscribe if you haven't and today we are making three one pan meals
these are all easy recipes you can have for lunch for dinner
and they only use one pan which is easy because we don't want a lot of cleanup
we're busy and if you're like me you probably are too as always if the full
recipes are going to be linked down below so you can have them and print
them out and save them these are all delicious healthy meals that are going
to taste good too so let's go ahead and get into it so the first one pan meal we
are making is this delicious taco skillet I started off with some avocado
oil in a pan and I'm adding in some garlic garlic adds a lot of flavor as
well as being an antimicrobial and antifungal I'm adding in some red onion
but you could also do a normal kitchen onion and tossing that until it gets
translucent once that's translucent I'm adding in
some ground turkey some organic one it's important to buy your poultry organic
and then I'm adding in this taco seasoning that I also found I think this
is easier than measuring out all the separate spices and you can kind of just
get everything in one just click that until your meat is done and you can
definitely do grass-fed beef instead here as well or even ground chicken I'm
adding in some broccoli rice but you can definitely do cauliflower rice as well
I've just kind of been switching it up between broccoli rice and cauliflower
rice so go ahead and stir that together until the broccoli is cooked then we are
adding in some tomato sauce this is one of my favorites it's a bit thicker so
depending on how tomatoey you like it you might need to add a little bit of
water or if your sauce is more runny you can skip the water entirely I like it
nice and thick more kind of like Hardy so I didn't have
to add water so just do it to your taste I added about a quarter cup and that was
enough for me but like I said if you like it more tomato
we feel free to add more I'm just looking for a tomato sauce that doesn't
have sugar a lot of them tend to have added sugar so just read the label and
just be cautious at that this is optional but I'm adding on some green
goddess dressing that you guys saw in my dressings video but you could also just
do plain avocado here I've just been trying to use up dressings and it's a
great way to use something other than a salad and it adds some freshness because
it has cilantro lemon and avocado finish it off with a little bit of cilantro
again on the top and you have this delicious skillet meal I also like to
put this on a bed of arugula or a bed of lettuce kind of to make like a taco
skillet salad next up we're making this shrimp lo mein or my version of shrimp
lo mein again I'm starting off with garlic and avocado oil it's kind of just
a really good staple and the more garlic you can get into you it's really great
for your immune system as well adding in some mushrooms mushrooms are great
because it gives it a nice meaty flavor and for the sauce I'm using coconut
aminos ginger which is really great for your digestion and overall health in
general mune system perspective as well some
tahini which is sesame seed paste which really helps to give the Asian flavor
because a lot of Asian dishes tend to have either sesame oil or sesame seeds
in them and the coconut aminos you guys know is a staple for me and I would
highly recommend picking that up I meant a little bit of tapioca flour and what
this does is it helps to create the thickness of the sauce so that it really
adheres to our veggies and our protein and what we're gonna add our noodles
into so then I'm adding in some baby bok choy you can add in like the adult
version I just like the baby bok choy because there's a bit more green to it
then the adult one and then I'm adding in some wild shrimp but you could do
chicken you could even do tofu I'm kind of whatever you liking yours adding in
my sauce and then just tossing that together to heat it through and once the
sauce is heated it does get a more thicker and it's gonna adhere to your
veggies in your protein for the pasta I'm using this new pasta it's my
favorite like konjac low-carb noodle you could definitely do regular gluten-free
noodles if you wanted to you could do zoodles or spiralize sweet potato kind
of whatever one you like here even spaghetti squash
would work great and then I just finish it off with a little bit of green onion
for garnish I find that using fresh herbs or think that green onion really
elevates dishes and it really makes a good difference in the meal and then
we're making this as a tart chicken so once again you guys know the drill by
now avocado oil and garlic I start a lot of
my meals this way it just gets a really good base and a lots of flavor then I'm
gonna be adding in my chicken so I use chicken thighs because they have a
little bit more flavor they're also a little bit more filling because I do
have more fat than chicken breast but again you can change up this protein to
whatever your favorite is and then I'm using this as a tar spice which is a
good like Mediterranean I believe or Turkish one of the - I'm spiced and I
just get it at Whole Foods but it has a lot of flavor and I really encourage you
to play around with the different spices because that's what's gonna make your
healthy dishes so good is all the flavor that you add into it so then I just
bought these veggies that were already done I'm adding in some sun-dried
tomatoes and this is just a good mix I find if you buy the chopped veggies
already done you don't have to like chop them yourself so it makes for really
easy quick one to pan meals I'm adding in a squeeze of lemon which really
compliments is the seasoning because the seasoning actually has some lemon peel
in it so I'm just sauteing that until everything is wilted down and done and
you have this really quick and delicious one pan meal that is going to be good
for you and filling as well so I hope you guys enjoyed this video I'm going to
