Quick healthy dinner ideas?
What are your quick healthy weekday dinners? My husband will be out of town all next week and I need some ideas. Nothing with nuts bc of allergies.

nothing easier then BBQ chicken cutlet, you can top with avocado, roasted red peppers, pesto sauce serve with grilled veggies, quinoa, cauliflower mash, roasted asparagus.
put then on a roll with lettuces/tomatoes etc
Lately, I've been eating lots of veggie burgers.

Tacos with ground chicken. Top with fresh guacamole and a little cheese.
Skinny taste buffalo chicken tenders are super quick. I serve with brown rice (frozen microwave kind is super quick and easy) and carrot sticks.
Grill burgers. Ground chicken and top with hot sauce or bbq sauce or veggie burgers (we like the dr.praegers quinoa ones).
Grill chicken and top with chopped tomatoes and garlic in balsamic vinegar.

Re: Quick healthy dinner ideas?
salads. just basically toss everything in a bowl and eat.
My favorite lately is a spinach/kale/romaine mix with sunflower seeds and blueberries and dried cranberries and crumbled goat cheese with a balsamic dressing.

Just pinned this! I have about 10 zucchini waiting to be used for something, so this is perfect timing... at least I can use some of them! lol 
I make her eggplant "meat"balls and love them. Can't wait to try these.
How do you serve them? Plain? On pasta/zoodles? Something else?

I would imagine yes, if you add another flavor or spice. I never added cheese to reg meatballs bc is was never kosher and those tasted fine without.
