1. Whole30 Chicken Salad

This Waldorf salad is made extra hearty and tasty with chunks of chicken.

2. Grilled Salmon with Avocado Salsa

I’m obsessed with salmon. It’s the kind of protein that’s just delicious no matter what.

Heck, you don’t even need to cook it. Just slice and serve it fresh for some irresistible sashimi.

But for this recipe, the salmon is made extra special with a flavorful spice rub. It’s grilled to perfection, then garnished with creamy avocado salsa on top.

3. Dairy-Free Tzatziki Sauce (Vegan)

A simple way to add flavor to any dish is to top it with a dollop of sauce. This cold and creamy tzatziki is a perfect example.

Made with cashew yogurt, cucumber, dill, garlic, and lemon juice, this tzatziki is wonderfully rich and refreshing.
