My roommates and I have apartment dinner every night. We have been trying to eat healthy but we are looking for some new recipe's. So far the hits have been White Chili, pizza (whole wheat crust), Chicken and vegetables (only cause I'm a seasoning master!), BBQ/Salsa Chicken, and taco salad. But we need help we need cheap, easyish, and HEALTY recipe's. Help a girl out! Thanks!!!
Lentil soup is so yummy, healthy, and fairly quick. The recipe says to let it cook for 2 hours, but it also works in 20 minutes. I just turn the temperature up a bit. (Of course, if you can what longer, the flavors are better.)
