200+ Best Easy Healthy Recipes
You’re going to love these simple, easy healthy recipes! Not only are they good for you, but they also use simple ingredients, without sacrificing taste. They are good sources of protein and fiber, mostly low in carbs and gluten-free, reasonable in calories, and full of flavor. The dishes here include quick healthy meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But my favorite part is that most of these are super quick to make for simple weeknight dinners.
The best healthy recipes can mean many different things to different people, so I want to share a bit about my philosophy here at Wholesome Yum. The dishes you’ll find here are made with whole foods, without any added sugar or artificial ingredients. In addition, I like to focus on super simple meals, so I try to use common staples found at any grocery store, and every recipe is 10 ingredients or less.
Many of these simple healthy recipes are naturally low carb (my personal way of eating), but I recognize that not everyone eats this way and that’s okay. Feel free to add starchy sides (potatoes, rice, or whole grains) or fruit as you see fit! I think the important thing is that we should all be eating more “real food” — and this applies whether you want healthy recipes for kids or for adults.

We love keeping our healthy recipes simple for breakfast! Eggs and bacon are the most popular, but don’t forget to include plenty of veggies. (I like to keep it simple when it comes to vegetables for breakfast — add some pre-cooked ones to your omelets, or just enjoy raw cucumbers, carrots, or tomatoes on the side.) If you’re looking for sweet breakfast ideas, I have lots of those on my keto breakfast recipes page.

Healthy Vegetable Recipes
Veggies are probably the most universally accepted quick healthy recipes! I’m a big fan of low carb side dishes, but you can definitely add higher-carb healthy whole food sides, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, or clean-ingredient pasta based on your preferences. The dishes below focus on eating more of your veggies, and we could all use more of those.

The air fryer is my all-time favorite appliance for quick healthy meals: it makes effortless vegetables and juicy meats cooked to perfection. You may be surprised how many flavorful, healthy dishes you can make in the air fryer… and how much time it saves.
