RECIPES:

Roasted Chicken:
Boneless, skinless chicken breast
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
House Seasoning*

Place the chicken breasts on a cooking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with house seasoning. Bake for about 30-45 min depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.

Broccoli:
If it's fresh, you can steam it or drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper and roast for 10-15 min. If it's frozen, you can boil or steam it.

Million Dollar Spaghetti
1 (7 ounce) package thin spaghetti (for healthier version use whole grain)
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 pounds ground beef (I like to use ground turkey)
salt & pepper
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
8 ounces cream cheese (for healthier version you can use low fat or fat free cream cheese)
1/4 cup sour cream (for healthier version, you can use fat free sour cream)
1/2 pound cottage cheese (can use low fat)
1 tablespoon minced green pepper
2 tablespoons melted butter

Cook spaghetti drain. Saute beef (or turkey) in olive oil until brown. Add tomato sauce, salt & pepper, remove from heat. Combine cottage cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, and green pepper in a food processor.In a 2 quart dish, spread one half the spaghetti and cover with the cheese mixture. Add remainder of spaghetti and pour melted butter over spaghetti. Spread tomato-meat sauce over top. Chill.Remove from refrigerator 20 minutes before baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Pork Loin:

Chicken Alfredo Pizza:

Store Bought Pizza Crust
1 Jar Alfredo Sauce
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Cooked, sliced chicken breast (if you're totally out of time, you can buy the pre-packaged cooked sliced chicken breast in the meat section of the grocery store)
Toppings of your choice: I like to use chopped red onion, mushrooms, parsley, mozzarella cheese

Take the pizza crust and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil; spread the alfredo sauce over the crust. Add chicken and other toppings. Lastly sprinkle with cheese and parsley. Bake at 400 for 10-14 min.

Turkey Burgers:

1-2lbs ground turkey
