Strawberry Cheesecake Shake
Very Good 4.5/5

Large enough for two people (120 calories each)- or a filling "meal" for one... My family loves these. A great way to get your protein, dairy and fruit in one serving-- very filling! Even a friend who doesn't like cottage cheese loves this!

This fiery Thai-inspired soup will help clear out your sinuses, without being uncomfortably spicy. Light coconut milk makes the broth creamy, chickpeas add protein, and vegetables like jalapeno, tomato and red pepper add their own healthful benefits. This super-simple easy is great for someone learning to make soup!

This is a high-protein, vegetable-centric dish that requires minimal hands-on time but looks pretty darn fancy! You can use pre-made corn tortillas if you want (they aren't sold in my region so I had to make my own), and you can vary the vegetables and salsas based on your personal preferences (though the nutritional information will change).
