Recipes:  

Grilled Pork Skewers over Cauliflower Rice

We love a good 2-for-1, especially when it cuts down on grocery shopping. White balsamic vinaigrette works as both a tangy marinade for grilled pork kabobs and a dressing for fluffy cauliflower rice. The homemade, microwave-ready “rice” (or grate finer for cauliflower “couscous”) is easy to make using a food processor or box grater for a versatile, low-carb side dish, anytime.   

Crunchy Sheet Pan Pork Chops with Veggies

These irresistibly juicy pork chops have a secret: their delicious, crunchy coating is actually seasoned croutons. Nutritious sweet potatoes and cauliflower roast together with the chops on lined baking sheets, making this complete meal a breeze from cooking through cleanup.

Grilled Pork Chops with Sweet Potato Salad

Even picky vegetable eaters can’t resist the delicious duo of sweet, juicy corn and earthy sweet potatoes. They come together in a simple 3-ingredient salad that pairs perfectly with smoky grilled pork chops. Loaded with nutrients, low in calories, this weeknight winner requires just 10 minutes of prep.

Chickpea and Corn Cakes

Here’s a new addition to Meatless Monday (or any day): tender, pan-fried chickpea patties inspired by falafel. Seasoned crouton breadcrumbs work as the binder for golden, crispy cakes made with fresh corn and garbanzos. Served over spinach salad, it’s a hearty, plant-powered meal that satisfies. 

Spinach Salad with Chickpeas

Fiber-rich chickpeas give this colorful, vegetarian salad a protein punch. Tender baby spinach, fresh corn, and savory croutons tossed in white balsamic vinaigrette get extra zing from red onion. To mellow the bite of without losing crunch, soak slices of raw onion in cold water for 5-10 minutes before serving.
