Many of us are becoming more mindful of our food choices, but it can be time-consuming to prepare healthy meals after a long, tiring day. It is often easier to resort to takeout or frozen meals. Fortunately, several recipes are healthy and easy to make. You can whip them up in your kitchen in 20 minutes or less.
Here are some quick and easy dinner ideas.
Oven-Roasted Vegetables
This quick side dish is good for the gut and contains essential nutrients. It can be paired with a protein and starch of your choice, such as chicken and potatoes, or tofu and potatoes.
Choose your favorite veggies, chop them to your liking, drizzle them with high-heat oil, and sprinkle on spices or herbs like chili powder, basil, parsley, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, lemon pepper, garlic, and so on. Then bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Sheet-Pan Dinners
Protein and vegetables are the ideal dinner combination. You can whip them up easily with a one-sheet dinner approach.
The idea behind the one-sheet dinner is to bake everything together on a tray. This is an efficient way to cut down on prep and cleanup time. For example, you can place seasoned chicken breast, sweet potato cubes, and broccoli on a pan, throw it in the oven, and, voila, you have a tasty and healthy meal.
Here are some other one-sheet dinners to try:
- Maple Salmon Sheet Pan Dinner
- Sheet Pan Garlic Herb Butter Chicken & Potatoes
- Sheet-Pan Chipotle Portobello Tacos
- Sheet-Pan Tandoor Chicken or Tofu Bowls
Quinoa Veggie Bowls
Although this recipe is called Quinoa Veggie Bowl, you can prepare it with any grain you choose (rice, quinoa, couscous). You can pick out your favorite vegetables too.
Chop the vegetables, toss them in with the grains, and add a healthy dressing like olive oil and vinegar. You can also stir-fry some shrimp or make scrambled eggs to add protein. Vegan or vegetarian eaters can add baked tofu or legumes like chickpeas or kidney beans.

These recipes are healthy and easy to make. They will give your digestive system a boost. However, if you require extra support, you may consider adding supplements to your diet.
