Welcome to my salad meal prep series! If you have followed me for a while now, you know I LOVE a good salad. I also am very guilty of spending WAY too much money at Sweetgreen and Chopt (especially while pregnant I need to stop lol.) But that’s why I created this fun idea of having a salad for every month. This salad is inspired by one of my favorite sweetgreen orders that I actually ate nonstop in the early 2nd trimester days. While I was craving it in August, I figured it would be a perfect September recipe to post. So, what’s in this gorgeous salad?

Spinach, almonds, goat cheese, apples, sweet potatoes, crispy rice (optional, but see my tutorial below on how to make a sweetgreen crispy rice dupe) and a balsamic vinaigrette. For protein, you can meal prep the crispy tofu that I show you how to make here OR you can make a bunch of hard boiled eggs. If you decide to do eggs, I would boil 1 egg per salad (so a total of 6 eggs.)For some reason, I was so averse to animal proteins until I hit mid second trimester in my pregnancy so I got really into tofu! Huge fan of this version here.

meal prep your own sweetgreen crispy rice!

You know what I don’t love? Spending $15 on a bowl at Chipotle. You know what I DO love? …Chipotle. So, that’s why I decided to meal prep these bowls which are better than the Chipotle chicken bowls (in my humble opinion!) They’re better because you know every ingredient that goes into them and they taste just like the real thing! They are also great for heating up in a container and enjoying for lunch all week long because, yum.

I like these because they are a healthier option and gluten-free without sacrificing flavor. You can also customize them to your liking: for garnishing and topping, you can choose whatever you want and adjust to your taste, which we love. Preparing this dish took me around an hour, but it’s easy because it’s a sheet pan situation.

Craving easy weeknight meal and tired of putting chicken breasts on your salad? Look no further than this! Super easy meatballs with Parmesan and balsamic, which are then glazed with balsamic and then thrown onto this easy as can be salad. Meal prep the salad and vinaigrette ahead of time, then make the meatballs right before serving. This is a 10/10!

Not a fan of turkey? You can cube chicken and toss it in the balsamic to make a glaze. Also, a vegan option here would b seitan!

Buttermilk Dill Brined Cornflake Chicken Nuggets with Honey Mustard Ranch (Gluten-Free) https://diningwithskyler.com/recipe/buttermilk-dill-brined-cornflake-chicken-nuggets-with-honey-mustard-ranch-gluten-free?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=buttermilk-dill-brined-cornflake-chicken-nuggets-with-honey-mustard-ranch-gluten-free https://diningwithskyler.com/recipe/buttermilk-dill-brined-cornflake-chicken-nuggets-with-honey-mustard-ranch-gluten-free#respond Thu, 09 Feb 2023 16:06:13 +0000 https://diningwithskyler.com/?post_type=recipe&p=13972 These chicken nuggets are….OUTRAGEOUS!

These chicken nuggets are….OUTRAGEOUS! In the best way. I really recommend brining your chicken overnight for maximum flavor and juiciness. You can also use chicken thighs here for even softer, more tender meat, but I like a good chicken breast nugget. You know what I love about this recipe? It’s gluten-free but you genuinely couldn’t tell. The cornflakes add a subtle sweetness and beautiful crunch to the coating of the chicken, and I think whether we’re gluten-free or not gluten-free, we can all appreciate a great crunch.

Not going to lie to you, I impulsively served this with honey mustard ranch. I just randomly decided “lets mix all this together because I have a bottle of ranch right next to me” but you don’t have to serve it with this! Ketchup, mustard, plain honey mustard, plain ranch or ketchup/mayo works great! Live your truth!

It’s Super Bowl week and I’m going ALL OUT! Yesterday I posted a Philly cheesesteak potato skin recipe (which you must make btw because they’re so delicious) and I randomly came up with this buffalo cheddar tot recipe to utilize the filling that was scooped out while making the potato skins. I honestly came up with this on the fly, I had no measurements in mind and really winged the whole thing. That being said, this is my attempt at putting together exact measurements for ease. Every potato is a different size, so you might have more or less “filling” than I had and you most likely will have to adjust these accordingly. For example, if the 2/3 cup of buffalo sauce makes your potato mixture too soft, you will have to add a little more cassava flour. Same thing vice versa – if the mixture seems too dry, feel free to add more buffalo sauce. Follow your instinct! It should not be too wet, and it should feel like a mashed potato ball with a slight bouncy starchy consistency. It should not be gluey and it should not be dry.

buffalo cheddar tater tots

This recipe is gluten-free because I used cassava flour as my binder, but if you are not gluten intolerant and don’t want to buy cassava flour, feel free to use all purpose flour!

Not into traditional frying? You can spritz these with nonstick spray and air fry them for 15-20 minutes at 375 F.

Honest to god, cream of broccoli soup slaps. It’s slightly earthy, sweet, creamy, aromatic, savory and also…its GOOD FOR YOU. I don’t know if you knew this but traditional cream of broccoli soup is not gluten-free due to using a roux (flour/butter) or veloute sauce (which starts with a roux) in the beginning of the cooking process for thickening process. For this recipe, I created a roux with gluten-free all purpose flour and I still used butter because butter is delicious. However, you can use the same weight of olive oil and still get thickening power from the flour.

Don’t have gluten-free flour? Use regular if you aren’t allergic! Or, you can use cassava flour, cornstarch or potato starch. If you use starch, use about 1 1/2 tsp and 2 1/2 tsp water. Make a slurry and add it (this reduces starchy/gummy clumps.)

cheesy butternut squash roll ups

I initially tested this with brown butter int he filling, but I’ve learned that brown butter is 10000x more potent when it’s drizzled as a finishing touch instead of incorporated into a filing. And yes, you can absolutely make this traditional lasagna style. I just think roll ups are so cute and fun!! You must use a baking dish that is tall enough to support the noodles. If you don’t, they will fall over and flop. If you don’t have one, I recommend just making this a traditional lasagna 🙂 ENJOY.

Mac n cheese? Baked Ziti? You decide. Regardless, this recipe is comfort. This is the edible hug you’ve been looking for. You can tailor it however you prefer, but the one thing about it that’s key are the caramelized onions. Yes, I know, caramelizing onions is such a time suck. However, it’s totally worth it when you make them in batches and can keep them in the fridge! Putting a video tutorial below so you can make the best caramelized onions.

Make a big batch of caramelized onions using this technique!

You know I love a video cooking tutorial, so here’s my video on how to make this recipe as well 🙂

This is one of my favorite pasta recipes for fall. It’s creamy, it’s nutty, there’s squash involved and there’s also some healthy, earthy rainbow chard stems and leaves in here to round out flavor and provide us some nutrients. This dish is a lot of fun and you can make it ahead of time similarly to a casserole, then just top with breadcrumbs and cheese and bake until it’s warm and golden brown on top before serving.

This is a great weeknight meal, potluck contribution or even a fun Thanksgiving side. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

If you can’t find rainbow chard, kale works great too. Just use the stems in the beginning, then add the chopped leaves at the end.
