    1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, 4–5 minutes.

    1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

    2. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato, red bell pepper, and cauliflower florets with 1/8 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and 1 tsp of olive oil.

    Japanese Chicken and Spinach Rice Bowls

    How to Make Japanese Chicken and Spinach Rice Bowls

    Grain, protein, and vegetable bowls are popular now, and once you taste this one, you will understand why. It is a nourishing bowl that combines the comfort of chicken soup with the color and flavor of fresh vegetables. You can also customize the bowl to suit your preferences or what you have on hand. If you are out of brown rice you can substitute cooked quinoa, farro or whole grain couscous. You might also top your bowl with chopped cucumbers, shredded carrots, or chopped bell peppers. And, if you enjoy spicy food, increase the red pepper flakes.


    30 min prep time


    3–5 hr cook time


    4servings


    1 1/2 cups chicken and vegetables and 1/2 cup brown rice

    Print Recipe >

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. Place the chicken in a medium slow cooker. Add the celery pieces, onion wedges, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and hot pepper flakes. Add the water and chicken stock. Cover and cook on low for 3 to 5 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the chicken reaches a temperature of 165 F.

    2. About an hour before serving, prepare the rice using the package directions, omitting the salt and margarine.

    3. Using a slotted spoon, lift the chicken out of the slow cooker and place on a cutting board. Strain the broth through a fine mesh sieve into a deep bowl. Pour the hot broth back into the slow cooker. Turn the slow cooker to High.

    4. Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and stir back into the hot broth in the slow cooker. Stir in the spinach. Cover and cook on High for 15 minutes.

    5. Spoon 1/2 cup cooked brown rice into each serving bowl. Ladle 1 1/2 cups chicken, spinach, and broth mixture over the rice. Top with sliced radishes and green onions. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

    6. Pressure Cooker Variation: Place the chicken, celery, onion, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and hot pepper flakes in the pressure cooker. Add the water and chicken stock. Secure the lid. Cook on High pressure for 6 minutes. Quickly release the pressure. Remove the chicken and set on a cutting board. Strain the broth and return it to the pressure cooker. Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and stir it into the broth. Set the pressure cooker on the sauté setting. Stir in the spinach and cook, stirring frequently, for 3 to 5 minutes or until the spinach is cooked. Proceed as the recipe direct, ladling the chicken and spinach over the cooked brown rice and top with radishes, green onions, and sesame seeds.

    Zuppa Toscana with Cauliflower and Kale

    How to Make Zuppa Toscana with Cauliflower and Kale

    This classic Italian soup is traditionally made with leafy greens, white beans, and potatoes in a savory broth with a little bit of spice. To make a low carb version, we replaced the white beans and potatoes with fresh cauliflower. Greek yogurt adds creaminess to the broth, and chicken adds extra protein. Add a side of Cauliflower Garlic “Bread” Sticks for a satisfying low carb meal.

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. In a Dutch oven, heat half of the oil over medium heat. Add the ground chicken and cook until browned.

    How to Make Homemade Instant Soup Jars

    Instant soups are a convenient and inexpensive meal, but they are loaded with sodium. This homemade version is easy to prepare ahead of time (make a few at a time for easy meal prepping) so you can enjoy the same convenience, but a much healthier version! This recipe calls for coconut aminos, which is a lower sodium (only 90 mg per tsp!), gluten-free substitute for soy sauce. If you’re trying to cut back on sodium, coconut aminos are a great alternative to soy sauce to keep in your pantry. To make the hard-boiled egg for this recipe, try our favorite method here.
