I grew up eating a version of this Carne Asada Quesadilla recipe at my Abuelita’s house, and it’s still one of my favorite meals ever! Crispy tortillas filled with the most irresistible marinated flank steak, black beans, and lots of melty cheese for the ultimate comfort food. Paired with a creamy, sweet, spicy dipping sauce, every bite is SO comforting, and a single serving has 55 grams of protein!
Butter Pecan Ice Cream
This Ninja Creami Butter Pecan Ice Cream Recipe is thick, super creamy, and full of that signature buttery pecan flavor. It tastes even better than store-bought ice cream but secretly has 21 grams of protein for a better-for-you dessert! I love that it’s so incredibly easy to make and it’s one of those recipes I like to keep stocked in the freezer all summer long. This is such a good one, you’ll never go back to store-bought again!
Lemon Mascarpone Pasta
This Lemon Mascarpone Pasta is one of my favorite comfort food dinners for spring and summer! Inspired by my upcoming trip to the Amalfi Coast, this creamy recipe combines mascarpone, bright lemon, pappardelle pasta, sweet peas, and lots of Parmesan. I love that all of the ingredients cook right in one pan, so it’s super quick and easy! And even though it tastes Italian restaurant-worthy, it’s actually perfect for busy weeknights. This has been one of my favorite dinner go-to’s lately!
Cottage Cheese Brownie Cookies
Why choose between brownies and cookies when you can have both with this easy Brownie Cookies Recipe? I recently made these for a small get together with friends and I knew I had to share the recipe right away! These cookies are made with a fudgy chocolate batter full of dark chocolate chunks, shaped into cookies, and baked until lightly crisp around the edges with soft chewy centers. And because they’re secretly made with cottage cheese, each cookie has 5 grams of protein!
