Summer may mean more crisp salads and salsa-y fish tacos, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want something extra indulgent tasting in between acai bowls and plates of garden fresh Caprese. What to do when that moment strikes?
Ladies and gentlemen, may we introduce VFit Squad Chili Fries. And although they sure don’t taste the part, these are So. Nutrient. Dense. Like, you can’t tell your sig other or children, because they’ll think you’re lying.
We love this meal because it is easy to prepare, presents well and tastes delicious. It is easy to prep ahead of time and bake after a busy day of work. It's also packed with nutrients and a perfect way to use up some bell peppers!
We firmly believe that healthy and filling food, should not be lacking in the flavor department. It is amazing what some fresh herbs and spices can do to your cooking, without adding all the unwanted preservatives that most packaged foods use to bring the flavor.

Keeping it fresh in the kitchen is the best way to avoid food ruts and to keep it fun in the kitchen.
Don't disregard this simple recipe, just because of the ingredient list! It is full of FRESH ingredients and simple to make, we promise! Your life will change with this recipe! It is like a summertime flavor-bomb explosion in your mouth. Laap is a traditional meal served in Laos and FULL of fresh ingredients.

This is a fabulous meal to make on the grill and enjoy with loved ones. Full of tropical flavors, it is sure to make you feel like you are on a sandy beach! Pairs well with cauli rice or served next to a salad. We've adapted this from Emeril at Food Network. Another option if you aren't into or are allergic to mango is to create the salsa using pineapple instead, which will stay in line with the tropical inspiration of these fish tacos.
A fan favorite!!! You don't want to miss out on this hearty and nutrient packed meal. Another great one for anyone going meatless. We have yet to find someone who wasn't impressed and filled up from this simple, yet delightful recipe.
Is there anything better than a big, ripe, juicy peach on a summer afternoon? We sure don’t think so! So with that on the brain, we were looking for a way to add even more jazz to the Epic Fish Tacos. Needless to say, an amazing batch of peach salsa was whipped up as an impromptu topping…what a game changer! It was easy as can be, and literally tastes good on everything from tacos to nachos to salads to meat.
Transform your favorite snack/appetizer from nutritionally void, to a nutrient powerhouse of a meal by swapping out tortilla chips with thinly sliced sweet potato circles, and loading 'em up thick with veggies, avocado, and beans. Adapted from Two Peas and Their Pod. Add some fresh chicken, beans or ground meat of choice to up the protein on this fabulous dish. You can also skip making chips from the sweet potatoes and instead bake them, adding all toppings after to make a "loaded" sweet potato.
