This healthy meal is super easy and delicious. Not to mention - it bakes more quickly than a large meat loaf because of the smaller muffin size.

The key to including pasta in your meal plan without going overboard on carbohydrate is to keep the portion size small and serve it with lots of veggies and some protein. This is a quick dinner the whole family can enjoy any time of year. Try it with a bean-based pasta like lentil or chickpea pasta for added protein and fiber.

You don't need fresh ground meat to make a delicious burger. With this budget-friendly option, you can use any canned meat such as tuna, salmon, or chicken. You could serve this like a traditional burger on a whole-wheat but with cheese, lettuce, and tomato. Or, for a low carb option, serve in a lettuce wrap topped with salsa and avocado. You could also chop up the patties and use them as a filling for a taco or burrito. The patties also freeze well, so you can make a bunch and save for a super quick dinner or lunch.

Here’s a fresh and lovely entrée salad for one—perfect for a work-form-home lunch or a busy weeknight dinner. The zingy, citrusy dressing is made by blending together cider vinegar and sesame oil with grated ginger and whole oranges. You'll drizzle that onto a bed of salad greens (whatever you have) and a lean protein of choice (leftover chicken or shrimp or canned tuna work well, or use tofu or beans for a plant-based meal). You can additional vegetables and toppings if you want—try grape tomatoes, avocado, or shredded carrot. For crunch, top with peanuts or another roasted nut.

Low carb and packed with protein, this simpler version of Salade Nicoise relies on pantry staples, and can be eaten on it's own or paired with another side for a more filling meal. You can sub ingredients for what you have on hand—use any kind of salad green instead of arugula; any kind of olive will work, or sub something like capers or feta cheese for the same savory, briny flavor; instead of tomatoes (or in addition!) you could use bell peppers, cucumber, sugar snap peas, or any other fresh vegetables. If you don't have bottled dressing, you can make a simple vinaigrette with lemon juice
