Hello May! Check out this collection of light and delectable recipes for the first week of the month.
Kick off the week with this delicious Greek Orzo Pasta Salad (made with grain-free orzo). On Tuesday, try this Date and Citrus Salad for a lighter meal. Go for this fantastic Sausage and Beans in Tomato Sauce meal on Wednesday. It's hearty, but not too heavy, so it won't leave you feeling too full. Finally, for Thursday, we've added this Garden Greens Gnocchi. While gnocchi is not typically gluten-free, this veggie-packed recipe is.
As this weekend's bonus; kill two birds with one stone, we have Cinco de Mayo on Thursday, and Mother's day is this Sunday. Make these amazing Chilaquiles from @theemoodyfoody!

MEAL PREP
Prep: This week, swap out the traditional orzo for your favorite grain-free substitute, and make the pasta salad on Sunday so you can either warm it up or serve it cold with freshly cooked chicken breast or shrimp on Monday.
Cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, bell pepper, spinach, cucumber, artichokes, and a dressing made from wine vinegar and olive oil, seasoned with Greek flavors like oregano and lemon, are combined into perfectly cooked orzo pasta, and who can forget the most crucial element of crumbled feta?
Make a day ahead to let all the flavors meld overnight.
This wonderfully balanced salad features bitter radicchio, romaine, sweet dates, goat cheese, crunchy pecans, and citrus. This delicious dinner salad is dressed in an apple cider vinegar vinaigrette and topped with Yolelfoods pilaf (couscous); as always, feel free to add your favorite protein.
This recipe appears to be time-consuming, yet it's only 5 ingredients, making it an ideal mid-week meal. Canned white beans, tomato sauce, and Italian sausage- add some thickly shaved parmesan cheese and a loaf of crusty buttered bread and you'll have an Italian feast in under an hour!
Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with these amazing Chilaquiles from @theemoodyfoody! The tortillas are fried and coated in homemade red salsa, then topped with cheese, crema, and slices of fresh red onion and cilantro! Finish it off with a fried egg for a filling breakfast bite.
