Chicken Sausage, Spelt and Pepper Skillet (with a vegan swap)

There’s nothing that says ‘comfort’ like a warm skillet and when it comes to flavor, color and texture, this hits on all cylinders.

My Chicken Sausage, Spelt and Pepper Skillet from my book, Eat Like You Give a Fork: The Real Dish on Eating to Thrive, combines protein (you can swap a plant-based sausage like LightLife or Beyond Meat, or do tempeh), slow burning superfoods grain and veggies to the table in a meal that satisfies and literally brings itself together in the oven. The grain cooks perfectly in the oven because there’s plenty of liquid to drink up. A great family meal when it gets coupled with a fresh salad and maybe an extra scoop of spelt.

PRO-TIP: If you can’t find spelt, long grain brown rice is a good swap.

Proats are a staple in the bodybuilding community because protein helps to take an otherwise starchy food and turn it into a powerhouse.

Now, let's talk about dates.  They are hot.  And I'm not talking about the ones you go on. 

In my 2023 trends report. My version offers about 1/2 the sugar of the leading packaged brand per serving with 11 g of protein, good fiber and natural sweeteners that don’t crash your blood sugar - and it tastes SO much better. 

The good fats - chia seeds, walnuts and unsweetened shredded...
