- Hey guys, today I am gonna be sharing
some of my favorite recipes that are delicious,
healthy and picky eater approved.
If new meal ideas are just the type of things
that you scan YouTube, Pinterest, and Instagram for,
make sure you're subscribed
by clicking on the red button below,
because I share fresh new recipes with you
every single week.
My goal by the end of this video
is for you to have fresh ideas to bring to the table.
So if you see a recipe that you like,
you'll find a link for it right below the video.
If you're having trouble finding healthy recipes
that your kids will actually try,
I know the struggle.
I have three kids.
And that is why I also created a free e-course
to help you learn how to transform mealtimes
and make them more enjoyable for the whole family,
picky eaters included.
Details on that also in the description box below.
Making wholesome meals with better ingredients
should not be stressful for us parents.
In fact, one of the easiest ways
to start eliminating processed foods
is to make healthier versions of kid favorites,
like chicken tenders.
Now, instead of frying them in oil,
I will lightly coat them in our favorite breading,
you can make these gluten-free too,
and bake them in the oven until crispy and delicious.
See what I mean?
Who can turn these down?
My family also loves takeout,
so I love recreating restaurant-style recipes at home.
And one in particular that shows up on repeat?
Chicken teriyaki.
But I'm not so crazy about the heavy sauce
and that sluggish feeling that I get
after I buy it from a restaurant,
so that's why I make it at home
in a lot less time that it takes me to order it
and go pick it up.
I use a light homemade sauce made with simple ingredients,
and it cooks super fast.
All you need is cooked rice and steamed veggies
to make this meal complete.
We all know and love those iconic burrito bowls,
but let's face it.
We can make an equally del, ah.
Equally, equally.
Equally.
We all love those iconic burrito bowls, but let's face it.
We can make an equally delicious version
using ingredients that we have at home for a lot less.
All you need are a few leftovers from taco night,
like cooked taco beef or chicken,
salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and veggies.
My family usually opts for cooked rice,
but sometimes I do cauliflower rice for a low-carb version
that's also delicious.
Speaking of cauliflower rice,
that brings me to my cauliflower front.
Cauliflower.
It's like that guy on YouTube, check out this comment.
It's collie flour, cauliflower.
He goes like, "It's not collie flour, it's call-a-flour."
Speaking of cauliflower rice,
that brings me to my cauliflower.
Cauliflower, cauliflower.
That brings me to my cauliflower fried rice.
(woman laughs)
This one has got to be one of my favorite meals,
and it's super fast to whip up.
The cauliflower rice takes all the flavor of the sesame oil
and the soy sauce,
just like regular rice.
We add in some scrambled eggs,
jumbo shrimp and sauteed veggies,
and you have one delicious meal that's healthy and low carb.
Better yet, the kids have no idea it's full of veggies.
Moving on to comfort food.
Pasta, who doesn't love a creamy, cheesy, bowl of pasta?
I think this is one of my kids' favorite meals
and one that I love to make own busy week nights
with pasta, broccoli, chicken,
and a super quick cream sauce.
Now I realize that not everyone likes broccoli.
My sons pick it out.
But if that's your case,
you can swap it for another veggie that works at your house,
like carrots, spinach, cauliflower, diced zucchini,
you name it.
The chicken, the sauce, the pasta
is the base for an epic kid-friendly meal.
I couldn't do this video without mentioning
my famous all-meat and veggie paleo chili.
Yes, it's paleo, no beans, and totally kid-approved.
Instead of using beans,
I finely chop up the veggies
sometimes in the food processors
so they're barely noticeable,
and cook it down with ground beef, tomatoes,
and chili seasoning.
The result is a hearty thick chili
you can top with chips and cheese, sour cream,
or serve it over nachos, you name it.
So if you'd like to make any of these recipes ASAP,

along with a sample meal plan for the week.
That's five dinner recipes,
