This Spinach Tortellini Soup is quickly moving up the list as one of our favorite soups! Between the cheesy tortellini, delicious broth, and creamy white beans - we couldn't get enough. It's a must try for soup lovers along with this Taco Soup and Cabbage Soup . Each week I think that I won't want to make another huge batch of soup and each week I find myself making more.

And while I normally serve it with a big green salad and some crusty bread, we all agreed that you don't need anything extra with this soup. It's filling since it is packed with tortellini, and still full of nutrition from tomatoes, onions, garlic, fiber packed white beans, and protein packed lean ground turkey. It's like a mash up between a really great pasta dish and a soup.  Traditionally this soup is made with sausage. However, I wanted to keep it nice and light, so I decided to go with lean ground turkey inst

Asian-inspired chicken lettuce wraps may be one of my favorite takeout dishes. If they are on the menu, I am going to order them without fail. It's reasonably healthy and low-carb and it's a dish that makes me hungry just thinking about it. But, I can't always go out to eat and sometimes takeout food is a little more caloric (lettuce wrap or no) due to added oils and fats. So for a long time I have been working on finding an at home version I love. Luckily, a friend was kind enough to give me this recipe, which is seriously good. Packed full of flavorful ground chicken, mushrooms, water chestnuts for crunch, and the perfect blend of soy, Hoisin, ginger, and garlic. And, if you are anything like me, you will add all kinds of Sriracha or other kinds of hot sauce and take the spice level over the top. If you are not a fan of spice, don't worry, you can make this dish as mild or spicy as you want. And, there are many easy ways to make this dish your own. Speaking of, I w

This creamy Tuna Avocado Salad is a healthier take on the classic tuna salad we all grew up eating. Using healthy avocados instead of mayonnaise, this tuna salad not only tastes incredible, but it is also really good for you. Add it to your lunchtime list along with this Cranberry Tuna Salad and Blackened Chickened Salad . Before we talk about how amazing this Avocado Tuna Salad is, let's talk about tuna salad for a minute. It's funny how something like a simple tuna salad can be so polarizing.  Literally, the mention of it brings scowls, scrunched up noses, and eye rolling.  Personally, I blame this on people who decide to eat tuna in small spaces with no ventilation, like an airplane or waiting room or an interview.  Yes, that really happened.  I used to do a lot of recruiting and interviewing for my previous job and one person casually brought his lunch to the interview, mentioning he had a busy day.  Understanding the need to eat, I decided to go with it, until he opened
