This week’s recipes are very simple and require limited time but take advantage of the delicious, bright flavors of summer!! Take 5 minutes to prep breakfast for the week with these Cherry Garcia Overnight Oats. We are focusing on simple proteins and stocking up on nutrient packed shrimp and versatile chicken. The Green Risotto is packed with flavor and hidden veggies and the Bean Salad will definitely help you hit your fiber goals.

Ready to cook up some delicious food? Here is this week’s menu:

• Protein & Fiber-Rich Cherry Garcia Overnight Oats

I obviously had to buy a giant bag of organic local cherries when I saw them at the store and I found a way to incorporate them into meal prep. Not only are these a super convenient breakfast option but they also pack tons of nutrient benefits. The fiber from oats and chia seeds promotes healthy digestion and feeds beneficial gut bacteria, while the added protein helps keep blood sugar stable, which is key for maintaining hormonal balance. Cherries bring antioxidants and natural compounds that can help reduce inflammation and support melatonin production for better sleep. It only takes a few minutes to prep breakfast for the week and each serving has 10g fiber and 40g protein!

• Ghee Sauteed Shrimp

I love shrimp because they literally take like 6 minutes to prep and cook. These ghee-sautéed shrimp are a simple and nutrient-dense recipe for a great way to stock your fridge with a lean protein that supports both gut and hormone health. Shrimp provide high-quality protein and key minerals like zinc and selenium, which are essential for hormone production and immune function. Ghee, a clarified butter rich in healthy fats and butyrate, supports gut lining integrity and reduces inflammation. Together, they make a satisfying, versatile protein that you can add to any dish for a nourishing meal!

• Easy Poached Chicken

Since we are prepping tons of batches of fiber-rich veggie side dishes I wanted to have a super simple, versatile protein that I could add to either of them to keep my meals interesting all week. When I am short on time I love to poach a couple chicken breasts. It takes like 5 minutes of hands on effort and you have a protein ready to go so that you can support your blood sugar, muscle mass, and build filling meals.

• Hidden Veggie Green Risotto

This is the star of the show this week. My fascination with blending leafy greens into my dishes continues with this bright green, seasonal risotto. It is as delicious as it looks and is actually super simple. The risotto is cooked with bone broth for some extra protein and micronutrients and then blanched greens, peas, herbs and pistachios create a zesty, bright flavor and color to the dish. 100% the most fun way to eat spinach.

• Fiber-Packed Cowboy Caviar

This bean salad screams summer - it is packed with tomatoes, corn, beans, jalapeno, bell peppers, and herbs. I easily hit my fiber goals this week thanks to having this packed in the fridge and truly felt the difference. Prepping a big batch of legumes is a great way to add this gut and hormone-healthy ingredient into your diet and the veggies, like bell peppers, offer amazing nutrients, including Vitamin C to support our collagen production. I loved this with added chicken or shrimp or just munched on it as a fiber-rich snack.

• Hibiscus Gut Gummies

Combining my love for gelatin gummies with my current obsession of hibiscus tea for this super simple snack. The flavor of hibiscus is quite light and mild, but these are a super soothing bite with all of the amazing gut and skin health benefits from gelatin plus hibiscus is rich in antioxidants like vitamin C and polyphenols, which help protect the skin from oxidative stress and support collagen production.
