This week, skip the take out and make some seriously easy – and seriously delicious – THAI BASIL CHICKEN at home! It’s amazing as a flavor-packed entree over brown rice or quinoa, and perfect on it’s own if you’re looking for some light-but-filling protein. I use chicken breasts, but chicken thighs or ground chicken work great, too.

A simple twist on your old favorite sandwich standby: We’re making ISRAELI EGG SALAD! True story: I totally made this recipe up based on my love affair with the flavors of a falafel sandwich. This version gets a little comfort with the all-too-familiar eggs and a little glamour with the addition of tahini and a smattering of fresh herbs, plus crunchy bites of cucumber. Perfect for brunch, lunch, a light dinner or a snack – open wide!
