Spaghetti Squash with Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Chickpeas

OH. MY. GOD. This is incredible. I am so sad my dad doesn't like brussel sprouts, because this is unreal. Haha I get so excited by vegetables. 


spaghetti squash
Brussel sprouts
Onion
Roasted garlic (sooo good)
Chickpeas
Dried basil
Lemon juice

The flavors are so spot on, the squash is super filling... it is just an incredible vegetable dish!

No-noodle Layered Veggie Lasagna


I'm back! Starting the semester off with a bang. Since we had no classes today I decided to be ambitious and made a multi step dish of basically veggies and cheese. A delicious mix of sweet potato, zucchini, kale, onion, broccoli, ricotta, and mozzarella with tomato sauce. Mmmmm! So much nutrition! At 350 calories a serving! (Although I think I ate 2 servings) Also went for a half hour walk today and even made it to 11,000 steps for the day.

Here's the link!

It's a lot of work with cutting, roasting and blanching but I think it was worth it. Note to self: recipe says sweet potato but meant yam because in their pictures it is orange, oops!
