Sorry for being a post whore.  

 What are your go to simple, quick healthy meals?   I'm hoping to resort to take out and frozen meals less in 2013! Sorry if there has been a recent thread similar to this.

    Lots of chicken and salads! We eat a lot of chicken either grilled or roasted. I also love chicken burgers with spinach and feta and grilled eggplant and chicken parm. Yum!

    Me too!  I have LOVED everything I've made from her!  The healthy baked chicken nuggets and chicken parm are 2 faves.  I just recently made the buttermilk chocolate chip scones and OMG I couldn't stop eating!  Cooking light is usually pretty good too, but I feel like they have a lot of ingredients.

    Any of the Looneyspoons cookbooks are AMAZING! I make at least 2 things out of mine a week :-)

    One of my recent easy (not super quick, because it marinades for about an hour, but you could cut that back if you needed to) is broiled salmon with a tossed salad on the side (I buy the packaged salad, because I am too lazy to actually cut up everything).  I marinade the salmon in a mix of maple syrup (the real stuff), soy sauce (I ran out and had to use a few dashes of fish sauce and some homemade chicken stock), garlic powder and pepper, and stuck it under the broiler until it was cooked through (I had a whole fillet and it took MAYBE 20 minutes - salmon steaks would be faster).

    Chicken or turkey quesadillas, all natural already cooked chicken meatballs (my kids love these) you find either by the meat counter or with the deli meats- warm in oven.  We also do Trader Joe's frozen turkey meatballs and eat those with sauce and spaghetti.  I buy chicken&mozzarella ravioli from costco that's not frozen.  Grilled cheese and tomato soup, omelets...

    Thanks all! I have made a few things from skinnytaste but I should do more.  I'm going to look into those cookbooks, Joyfully.  I also like Marlene Koch's cookbooks.  Her baked good are amazing!

    We like making stir fry a lot. You can do tons of variations and different meats and lots of veggies. It takes about half an hour, depending on how fast you are with chopping. A lot can be done ahead of time, too.

    My favorite is pineapple chicken. Bell peppers, carrots, onions, chicken and a can of pineapple. Use the juice with soy or teriyaki sauce and cornstarch to thicken it.

    Serve it over rice.
