Easy to prepare dinner ideas

If you crave variety and want to spice up your routine, plenty of scrumptious, small-batch dinners take very little time to prepare and are incredibly healthy.

1.    Chicken-quinoa bowl
–    Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste. 
–    Bring the water to a boil and add the quinoa. Cook for 15 minutes or until the water 
is fully absorbed.
–    Meanwhile, cook the chicken in olive oil on the stovetop. 
–    Soft-boil the eggs for 6 minutes. When done, place the eggs in cold water and let 
cool. Gently crack the shells, then peel and slice into halves.
–    Portion the quinoa into two bowls and top with the arugula, chicken, sliced avocado, 
cherry tomatoes, eggs, and sesame seeds.

2.    Sweet potato and broccoli chicken
–    Preheat the oven to 190°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
–    Combine the broccoli, sweet potato, onion, and garlic. Drizzle with oil and season 
with salt and pepper, then toss. Cover with foil and bake for 12 minutes.
–    Remove from the oven, add the chicken, and bake for 8 more minutes.
–    Remove from the oven once more, add the dried cranberries and walnuts, and bake 
for another 8–10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

3.    Chickpea-tuna lettuce wraps
–    Add the chickpeas to a food processor. Pulse them a few times, but leave a few 
chunks.
–    In a bowl, mix the tuna, carrot, onion, celery, cilantro, and garlic. Then add the 
chickpeas and remaining ingredients — except for the lettuce — and mix well.
–    Place about 2–3 spoonfuls of mixture onto each lettuce leaf before serving.
