Creamy Pesto Zoodles with Chicken

Pesto zoodles with chicken in a bowl with pine nuts on the side.

Creamy Pesto Zoodles with Chicken should move to the top of the list when you are looking for a low carb pasta dish.  If you are a zucchini noodle love, you will also want to try these Asian Zucchini Noodles and Pesto Shrimp and Zucchini Noodles.

There are so many ingredients out there from which to choose when making a recipe, sometimes it's nearly impossible for me to settle on what to put with what. You all know I love veggie noodles, especially zoodles.

It doesn't bother me in the least that they're not "real" pasta, and in fact, I might love them even more that they're not for the simple reason that I can eat tons of them and not feel guilty about it in the least.

Top those noodles with a lean protein like chicken and some heart-healthy, homemade pesto and you've got yourself a five-star meal. I think that these Creamy Pesto Zucchini Noodles with Chicken are just so good.

The pesto is bright and full of the fresh flavors of basil, lemon, garlic, pine nuts, and Parmesan cheese. Then this is all tossed with zucchini noodles, a garlicky chicken breast, and cream cheese that makes a rich, creamy "pasta" dish that you will never believe is less than 400 calories.

That's right — less than 400 calories. And that includes a ton of zoodles. You won't feel the least bit jipped when you see the huge helping and savor the delicious flavors of one of my favorite chicken dishes.

What Makes This Creamy Pesto Zoodles with Chicken Healthy?

So many things make this veggie-packed dish healthy!

  • Basil is a delicious herb that you can grow right on your windowsill. It is a good source of manganese, iron, and vitamins A, C, and K. It also has some calcium and omega-3 fatty acids. Basil's essential oil is used as an antiseptic.
  • Parmesan and reduced fat cream cheese are both good options if you want to use low-calorie and low-fat cheeses (and added calcium) but still have the desired cheesy effect — in this case the nutty Parm and the gooey cream cheese. Perfect together. Plus, the protein in them helps keep you full.
  • Pine nuts are a great source of monounsaturated fatty acids and they are a good source of iron, copper, and vitamins K and E. In short, pine nuts (like most other nuts) are good for your heart!
  • Olive oil is one of those healthy fats you should definitely have in your diet, plus it's full of antioxidants. It is a great all-purpose cooking oil that you should use instead of vegetable oil, butter, or lard.
  • Garlic is a low-calorie way to add lots of flavor to just about any dish, but it's particularly used in lots of Italian-inspired dishes. It is also a good source of vitamins C and B6, fiber, selenium, and manganese.
  • Lemon juice and lemons are a good way to get in your daily intake of vitamin C. They are also a great source of calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium. And, it's good for your teeth — bonus!
  • Onions are the perfect start for just about any recipe (okay maybe not ice cream) and they contain a decent amount of vitamins C and B6, iron, folate, and potassium and are anti-inflammatory to boot.
  • Boneless chicken breast is a great source of lean animal protein, a building block of muscle.
  • Zucchini is a great summer squash and it has a very low calorie count — almost the lowest of any vegetable. Zucchini also has vitamins C and A, folate, iron, and potassium. It also contains zero cholesterol and almost no fat, plus it's low-carb and contains lots of water to keep you hydrated.

Side Dishes to Serve With Creamy Pesto Zoodles with Chicken

This dish is great alone or with a few other dishes I'd recommend, like:

  • Healthy Kale Caesar Salad is one of my favorite side salads. It's okay — you can never have too many veggies!
  • Crispy Baked Broccoli is another great dish to complement almost any meal.
  • A nice crusty roll or slice of sourdough bread goes great with this dish.
  • Try steamed asparagus or Super Simple Roasted Brussels Sprouts on the side.
  • Try a side of fresh tomato bruschetta on a thinly sliced baguette.
  • A fresh caprese salad on the side is another one of my go-tos.

How can I use leftover Creamy Pesto Zoodles with Chicken?

The leftovers of this dish are great! I'd suggest if you're going to make the zucchini noodles that you make them fresh every time you want them or they tend to get a little limp and soggy. If that's not possible, no worries — just be sure to drain any excess water before reheating.

This chicken is great sliced up on a bed of lettuce with your other favorite veggies or added to a wrap. You can also add the chicken to some whole wheat pasta with the basil pesto for a new twist on a pasta salad. Add in some sliced cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, red onions, and artichoke hearts. Or, cut the chicken into strips and add it to a panini or quesadilla.

Taking Deer Antler Pills Helps Lower The Effects Of Stress

By Ronald Turner


Some of the most sought after supplements these days are adaptogens. Put simply, these orally-taken products help consumers adapt to stress more effectively, thus countering the many unfavorable effects it has on the body and mind. Ginseng, licorice root, holy basil and ashwagandha are some of the most popular adaptogens available on the current market. The same is true for deer antler pills for managing stress as well as many other common health-related matters.

Being stressed every now and then is completely normal. If truth be told, you can consider stress as an ally. Without it, you will surely have a hard time completing challenging physical and mental tasks. That's because stress can make your muscles stronger and your mind sharper.

Encountering stress all the time, sadly, is bad for you. According to scientific investigations, long-term stress can affect your mind as well as brain in all kinds of unfavorable manners. You can put the blame on the hormones referred to as cortisol and adrenaline. Each time you are stressed, these chemicals are released into your bloodstream.

Leading a very stressful life can cause your blood pressure to increase. If it's something that stays elevated even while you're at rest, it then becomes a condition known as hypertension. Cardiologists say that hypertension is a serious matter because it can put your heart as well as blood vessels in peril. This is why hypertension is regarded as one of the various heart disease risk factors.

Aside from the blood pressure, the levels of sugar in the bloodstream can also be increased considerably by stress. Sooner or later, it's something that can pave the way for what's called insulin resistance, a condition that can increase an individual's risk of diabetes. There is no known cure for the said disease, and failure to manage it can cause various complications to strike.

So many other health concerns may stem from stress, too. Some of the most serious ones are osteoporosis, arthritis and obesity. Then there's also deadly cancer. The reason why stress can pave the way for these health nightmares is it causes chronic inflammation.

Aside from your body, your mind may suffer as well if you are constantly stressed. Experts in the field of mental health say that due to the many demands of modern-day society, millions of people worldwide are battling anxiety and also depression these days. It's possible for both anxiety and depression to be managed in various natural approaches. However, these mental health issues have to be dealt with through medications if all kinds of complications are already around.

To keep your body and mind out of harm's way, make sure that you keep your stress minimized. Do not panic if you cannot steer clear of stressors because you may simply carry out stress-relieving activities such as listening to music, doing yoga or having a massage. Relying on adaptogens such as deer antler is also a good idea.

When some things are left to a professional, you do not have doubt. This is because some materials that are used today in dry cleaners Apopka shop is complicated.

A Discussion On Spousal Sponsorship

By Harold Sanders


First, what exactly is this? Well, spousal sponsorship is when a Canadian person or maybe a permanent resident can sponsor a spouse or something. Or maybe a common law partner of some kind just so they can stay in Canada Permanently. This is definitely a thing that does not sound a little suspicious at all. Nope. This is Spousal Sponsorship Brampton.

We can behind the whole marrying someone for the purpose of getting into a country and hopefully live there forever. But what we cannot really stand is when once they have done so, they immediately break up with the person they just used and then forget about them as if they have never used them for their benefit in the first place.

The point is that you will be living somewhere else that is not necessarily where you have been raised. A country that is not your own. And in this way, you can finally get rid of the people that have been annoyingly plaguing you and your entire life. You can go start a new one over there and not worry about anyone ever knowing you or your name.

Hell, you could even change it if you like, like, legally change it. It might take a lot of days and time to process but maybe it could be worth it? to change the name that you have been abhorring your entire life? Who knows, maybe you actually like it and we are just talking crap at this point.

Our point, actually, is that if you plan to move somewhere far or near Canada, maybe the best and fastest way to do so is through that whole spousal sponsoring crap that everyone has been talking about. It would certainly help in a lot of cases. Maybe this is how people actually migrate to different countries?

By marrying someone that lives in a different country and then use that to make yourself a valid citizen of said country. Could we do that? Could we convince a British guy online to marry us just so we could finally live in that country where Felix lives? Felix as in Pewdiepie?

Maybe we would finally have a better chance of meeting him and thanking him for all his hard work and videos. Lord knows how much we actually owe the guy for those years of laughs. How he stopped us from trying to succumb further into darkness with his hilarious videos. It is actually because of him that we have stopped being afraid of horror movies.

Nor do we really care to actually go to her site because we literally do not care if she still does her job or dies at any point. But thanks to her, people have now become even more aware of greedy people online that use the copyright strike option for seemingly no reason at all.

If you want things to be easier for you when you finally decide to migrate to a different country, then your best option is through this marriage thing that people have been doing. Whether you love the person you are marrying or not, people are doing it anyway.

Where To Find The Best Martial Arts Surrey

By Mary King


If you are one of the many people who have a hard time getting enough exercise in on a daily basis, what you might need is the right activity to burn those calories with. Trying to just burn them all doing something you hate like jogging or jumping jacks will probably be futile because all you will be thinking about is how much you hate what you are doing. Many people have found success with martial arts Surrey because the rigorousness and mentally-oriented nature of the activity keeps you distracted from the fact that you are actually exercising.

It is always going to be important for people to have the skills to take care of themselves. That way, they will know what to do when a dangerous situation occurs. So many times in real life, people think that they will know what to do when those circumstances arise, but in so many of the actual cases, people freeze up and thus leave themselves vulnerable to all kinds of threats that they would have otherwise been able to protect themselves against.

It is a common mistake that jumping into a class at an extremely high level is always the best option. Usually, it will work out better if you just stick to the level that you are actually at. That way, you will be able to learn the basics before you go trying to move onto the more tricky stuff.

The thing that many people love about going to a class like this is that they get the chance to be social while doing something that they love. It is always best when you can combine these sorts of things together because it means you are killing two birds with one stone. Everyone loves to spend time with their friends, but if you are all just doing nothing but hanging out all the time, you will never learn any useful skills. Inversely, if you spend all your time honing your various skills, you will never get the chance to be with friends, so it is always best to find a way to combine these things.

With the right teacher, you might be amazed by how much you can learn. With the wrong teacher, it is appalling just how slowly things might move. That is why you might want to shadow a few different teachers just to find out who is really compatible with your personality and who is not.

Even though you will have to do a lot of hard work in order to be successful at this sort of thing, it should also be a lot of fun. That is one of the things that make it so much easier to stick with than other forms of exercise or certain difficult routines. The fact that you will actually be enjoying yourself makes a huge difference.

There is a very diverse range of fighting styles out there that fall into this category. Whether you choose to try a bit of everything or hone in on just one, there is a lot you can learn. It is sometimes useful to be able to alternate between fighting styles to suit the situation.

It is always going to be important to remember to practice as much as possible. That way, you will see improvement over time instead of having to be frustrated by how slowly things are moving for you. This is definitely something that will take time and you have to have both diligence and patience.

Birth Control In Waco TX; A List Of Contraception Methods You May Consider

By Sarah Johnson


If you are searching for a birth control method, chances are that you will easily get several enticing options to consider. While there are various kinds of contraception, they differ in numerous minor aspects making it vital to consult with an ob-gyn before choosing what to use. If you are interested in birth control in Waco TX, a reliable obstetrician gynecologist can help you select a method that is excellent for your lifestyle.

Family planning pills remain a top choice for numerous women across the globe. This option involves taking one pill each day without fail. The tablet will release hormones that congeal cervical mucus and make it challenging for a sperm to reach the egg. Pills also stop ovulation and this further reduces the odds of one conceiving. When using oral contraceptives, you will notice reduced cramps and acne as well as more regulated and light menstrual periods.

When searching for a low maintenance birth control option, you may want to think about using an implant. This is simply a matchstick sized device that is inserted into the arm and can reduce your chances of getting pregnant for about three years. The best thing about this method is that you can always get the implant removed once you are ready to get pregnant.

The three month shot is another superb option to consider. The injection will only protect you from getting pregnant for as long as it is effective. You therefore want to get your next contraceptive shot as soon as the last one expires. This option is ideal for breastfeeding mothers because it does not contain estrogen.

You can use a contraceptive patch as your birth control method. You have to use a fresh patch every week for a series of three weeks before you can take a one week break. The patch can be placed on the buttock, upper arm, abdomen or back. Contraceptive patches also assist in reducing headaches, cramps and acne.

An IUD (intrauterine device) is another effective option you could consider. This is a flexible, tiny, T-shaped device that is inserted into the uterus. There are different kinds of IUDs and depending on the type of device you choose, it could last between three and ten years. Intrauterine devices are low-maintenance and long lasting, not to mention that they are an excellent emergency contraception method, as long as you use them not more than five days following unprotected sex.

A reliable obstetrician gynecologist can help you choose a birth control method that is perfect for your needs. The expert will address any concerns you have about your reproductive health and also answer any pressing questions you may want to ask. It is typical for women to have a list of crucial questions to ask during consultation appointments.

A question that most women will ask is whether their risk of battling with infertility issues will increase if they choose to use contraceptive pills. Well, this is just a myth and there are no scientific proofs that can back up these claims. In fact, the hormones released after taking pills protect women from fertility-damaging issues such as endometriosis.

Putting Your Anxiety Under Control By Taking Herbs And Natural Supplements

By Martha King


The current market is flooded with supplementary products for various health and beauty related matters. It's for certain that there is something a consumer may take for much needed relief no matter if his or her problem is hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, acne or hair loss. Some people who are battling anxiety and refuse to pop medications in their mouths commonly take herbs and natural supplements that are meant for the said mental disorder.

In the United States, it is estimated that 40 million people have anxiety. It goes without saying that it can be regarded as an epidemic, mental health experts say. They add that anxiety is a highly treatable problem, although only a small percentage of sufferers seek medical assistance.

Fear of taking psychiatric medications is one of the reasons why so many anxiety sufferers seek the help of psychiatrists. Even though anxiety medications are highly capable of providing results, they are frowned upon by many due to the side effects they bring. Most especially after taking them for a long time, various withdrawal symptoms may come into being when it's time to quit. After successfully dealing with the pesky withdrawal symptoms, it's not unlikely for the individual to then face rebound anxiety.

It doesn't really come as a surprise why many are wary of counting on psychiatric drugs. Luckily, it's possible to deal with the mental disorder via some natural approaches. With so many options out there, you may try several different ones until you encounter something one or two that can really put your anxiety under control even without the intake of drugs.

Taking breaths that are deep and slow is commonly suggested as a medication free solution. According to scientists, symptoms such as nausea, rapid heart rate, chest pain, and pins and needles in the extremities can be alleviated by slowing down the breathing rate to 6 to 8 a minute. By dealing with the said terrifying physical symptoms, attaining calmness during an attack can be easier.

There's never a shortage of all natural relief available. Having a massage is a step that may be taken on a regular basis. Especially when paired with relaxing essential oils such as chamomile, jasmine and lavender, it can be very easy to fend off anxious thoughts. Simple remedies such as reading a book, listening to music and taking a bath can impress, too.

Someone who is battling anxiety may give certain supplementary products a try, too. They tend to come in the form of teas, capsules and pills. According to experts, they work by causing relaxation of the mind. It's for certain that the body will follow suit as soon as the mind is already put in a calm state.

Some of these products are meant to be taken during an attack. Others, however, may have to be administered on a regular basis in order to keep anxiety at bay. No matter the case, it's important for a person to first inform a doctor about his or her plan to take supplements. This is most especially true if he or she has a known medical condition.

Crispy Roasted Cabbage

Roasted cabbage in pieces with browned edges on a plate.

Roasted cabbage will make you reevaluate your relationship with this often overlooked vegetable. It turns out crispy, addictively tasty, and makes one amazing side dish. It's right up there with Roasted Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, and Carrots.

If you aren't roasting your cabbage, I am here to convince you it's time to start. It comes out browned and nutty and super delicious. So push out your memories or sad, soggy boiled cabbage and get prepared to fall in love with cabbage. It's seriously game changer when it comes to cooking cabbage.

Before we start throwing cabbage under the bus, let's take a minute to reflect on cabbage's close relative - Brussels sprouts. Up until a few years ago, Brussels sprouts were the pretty much the butt of every vegetable joke and thought to be a mushy, bland veggie that no one would choose to eat. Then everyone started roasting it and all the sudden Brussels sprouts were on every menu and something people couldn't get enough. Me included - I never ate Brussels sprouts before and now they are one of my favorite veggies.

So now let's talk cabbage. Cabbage and Brussels sprouts come from the same family and have a similar flavor. So if you like roasted Brussels sprouts, you will almost definitely also like roasted cabbage. It almost like a milder Brussel sprout and super tasty.

The other huge benefit of cabbage - it is so much easier to prepare. You don't have to clean, trim, and chop a bunch of sprouts. Instead, just a few slices into a head of cabbage and your prep work is done. Plus cabbage is super affordable and readily available all year long. Are you convinced yet? 

One more thing, there are two traditional ways to roast cabbage - in cabbage slices (steaks) or in wedges. Today I am sharing the sliced version since it results in the most crispiness. However, you will find instructions below for roasting cabbage wedges as well.

Cabbage slices on a sheet pan with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

How to Roast Cabbage Slices

For the crispiest option with the most browned edges, you will want to make cabbage steaks. Here's how:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage if necessary. 
  3. Slice the cabbage into horizontal slices that are about 1/2 inch thick.
  4. Brush the steaks with olive oil on both sides. Season with salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you like.
  5. Roast for 14-17 minutes until the cabbage is tender and the edges are browned and almost burnt.

How to Roast Cabbage Wedges

Another option for roasting cabbage is to make wedges. The wedges tend to stay together better than the steaks and are prettier for presentation purposes. They also provide a crispy outside and really tender inside, which some people prefer to the crispier cabbage you get in slices. Here's what to do:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Remove any browned outer leaves of the cabbage.
  3. Start by cutting the cabbage in half through the core. Then slice each half into 3-4 wedges. You will have 6-8 total wedges. 
  4. Brush the cabbage wedges with olive oil on both sides and season with salt, pepper, and any other spices.
  5. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  6. Roast for about 20 minutes total, flipping halfway through. 

Roasted cabbage on a sheet pan with crispy edges.

Roasted Cabbage Recipe Ideas

  • Balsamic: In addition to the olive oil, brush the cabbage with balsamic vinegar as well. You can also drizzle balsamic vinegar of balsamic glaze on top before serving.
  • Asian: Brush the cabbage with Hoisin sauce before roasting or drizzle with soy sauce when it comes out of the oven.
  • Spicy: Sprinkle the cabbage with some roasted red pepper flakes and garlic powder before roasting it.
  • With onions: Slice up some red or sweet onions and roast them on the baking sheet with the cabbage.
  • Parmesan: Add some grated Parmesan cheese to the cabbage slices right before serving. Consider squeezing some lemon on top as well.
  • Bacon: Chop up a few pieces of center cut bacon and roast it alongside the cabbage. This is super delicious.
  • Garlic: Crush a garlic clove using the side of a knife. Then rub the cabbage with the garlic clove before roasting.

Ways to Use Roasted Cabbage

This cabbage makes the perfect side dish, but there are also lots of other ways to utilize for meals and meal prep.

  • As a pasta replacement: If you get sick of spaghetti squash and zucchini noodles, consider swapping in these roasted cabbage strands. Slice the cabbage in thin steaks and once it is roasted, you can twirl it right up like pasta.
  • With pasta: This is one of my favorite things to toss with pasta. Usually, I grab some pasta, cooked turkey or chicken sausage, and roasted cabbage. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and some fresh lemon juice for a super tasty meal.
  • Meal prep: This is a great veggie to make for meal prep since it keeps well after a few days in the fridge. Make a batch of brown rice and top it with edamame, carrots, and roasted cabbage. Add some chicken or tofu and top with an Asian dressing.
  • As a vegetarian main course: Instead of making cauliflower steak, consider making a cabbage steak instead. Top it with pesto, chimichurri, or some feta cheese and lemon.

Why you should try rutabagas and turnips

Odds are, you walk right by these root vegetable cousins every time you’re at the supermarket.

Turnips and rutabagas don’t get much attention. And that’s a shame.

The unsung pair may not measure up to kale or other nutrient-packed leafy greens. But when it’s cold outside and you’re hankering for mashed, baked, or roasted potatoes, give these guys a whirl.

One cup of cooked white potatoes has 130 calories, largely from starchy carbs. In contrast, a cup of rutabaga has just 50 calories; a cup of turnips has a mere 35.

Yet they can both stand in for taters…with a slight twist.

Turnips have a distinctive tang, which mellows when you cook them. Rutabagas—a cross between turnips and cabbage—have less tang and more sweetness. Both deliver a decent dose of fiber, vitamin C, and potassium.

How to turn these root veggies into savory sides?

Peel and chop into chunks a pound of rutabagas or turnips. Toss with two tablespoons of olive oil and ¼ teaspoon of kosher salt, then roast on a sheet pan in a 400ºF oven until caramelized and tender—about 20 to 40 minutes—stirring halfway. Mmm…

A tip from The Healthy Cook: Get yourself a serrated vegetable peeler—the kind with teeth—to help you shave off the thick skin with ease.

What Do Social Justice And Injustice Look Like

By Sarah Ward


If you are born in today's world financially and socially disadvantaged, upward mobility is a difficult hill to climb. In many areas of this world, the United States included, opportunities for wealth and a life of ease are the prerogative of just a few. This is totally contrary to the concept of social justice, which is the idea that privilege, wealth, and opportunity should be available, equally, for everyone.

This concept did not emerge on the world scene until the mid-nineteenth century. This was the time of the Industrial Revolution and of other civil rebellions occurring throughout Europe. The focus during this period was on property, capital, and the fair distribution of wealth.

In the middle of the twentieth century the idea started to expand. Gender, nationality, race, and environmental equality were included. The concept also expanded from just a governmental responsibility to create an equal society to include personal responsibility for alleviating the unjust conditions suffered by victims all over the world.

The drawbacks to establishing a truly equal society are broken down by experts into two basic parts. One is the way individuals in mainstream society treat others based only on personal bias, prejudice, fear, and misinformation. Examples of this are people who are treated unequally because of their gender, age, race, religion, social status, education, nationality, or mental and physical disabilities.

Unjust governmental laws are the second part of the equation. These are law put in place, knowingly or unknowingly, that create conditions that limit, deny, or make it hard for some segments of the population to access opportunities freely given to other segments of the population. Examples of these are voting laws that redistrict certain areas to sway elections in favor of one party and laws that require specific types of identification in order for a person to be allowed into the polling booths.

Environmental laws, or the lack thereof, that allow industries to dispose of waste in the lakes and rivers that a community relies on for drinking water is another example of governmental injustice. There are still schools in the United States that do not comply with school segregation laws. There are certain areas of America where people of a certain race or ethnic background are more likely to be pulled over by law enforcement.

Unjust treatment by societies is divided into two categories, the direct and the indirect. Direct inequality comes about when individuals within a society deny rights and opportunities to certain individuals and not to others. An example might be the owner of a public restaurant who refuses to sit individuals in the dining area because of what that owner perceives is their sexual orientation. Direct inequality is also segregating schools and public facilities based on race.

When the government enacts laws that do not directly inhibit the rights of individuals, but in fact do, that is indirect inequality. An example might be laws that restrict mail in voting and require specific voter identification. When you buy clothing manufactured in sweatshops, you are supporting people who victimize laborers.
