Recipe 1: Stuffed Bell Peppers with Quinoa and Turkey

I whipped this up one night when I was tired of the same old meals. Using quinoa instead of rice gives it a fun twist, and turkey keeps it light but filling.

How to Make It:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Slice the tops off four bell peppers and scoop out the seeds and insides.
3. In a pan, cook 1 pound of ground turkey until it’s nicely browned.
4. Stir in 1 cup of cooked quinoa, 1 can of diced tomatoes, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of paprika, plus a pinch of salt and pepper.
5. Stuff those peppers with the turkey-quinoa mix.
6. Pop them into a baking dish, cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes.
7. Take the foil off and bake 10 more minutes.
8. Serve hot with a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

Recipe 2: Spicy Shrimp and Avocado Lettuce Wraps

This one’s a lifesaver when I want something quick and fresh. The shrimp brings a little heat, and the avocado makes it creamy—perfect combo!

How to Make It:

1. In a bowl, toss 1 pound of cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined) with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
2. In another bowl, mash 2 ripe avocados with a fork, mix in 1 tablespoon of lime juice, salt, and pepper.
3. Grab some big lettuce leaves (iceberg or butter lettuce work great) and spread a spoonful of avocado on each.
4. Pile on the spicy shrimp.
5. Top with diced tomatoes and a bit of cilantro.
6. Serve right away.

Recipe 3: Eggplant Lasagna with Spinach and Ricotta

I made this for a friend who missed lasagna but couldn’t do gluten. Eggplant instead of noodles? Total game-changer.

How to Make It:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cut 2 large eggplants lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices.
3. Brush the slices with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4. Grill or bake them until tender—about 5 minutes per side.
5. Mix 1 cup of ricotta cheese, 1 cup of chopped spinach, 1 egg, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
6. Spread a layer of sugar-free marinara sauce in a baking dish.
7. Add a layer of eggplant slices, then the ricotta mix, then more sauce. Keep layering.
8. Finish with shredded mozzarella on top.
9. Bake for 25-30 minutes until it’s bubbly and golden.
10. Let it cool for 10 minutes before digging in.

FAQ

Can I make these ahead of time?

You bet! The stuffed peppers and eggplant lasagna reheat like a dream. Store them in the fridge and warm them up when you’re ready. The lettuce wraps are best fresh, but you can prep the parts and assemble fast.

Good for meal prep?

Totally! The peppers and lasagna are awesome for making on Sunday and eating all week. The wraps are quick to put together, so they’re solid for a fresh prep option.

What if I need to swap ingredients?

No problem! Use ground chicken or beef in the peppers instead of turkey. For the wraps, try tofu or tempeh if you’re veggie. And for the lasagna, dairy-free cheese works if you’re skipping dairy.
