Trying to figure out what to make for dinner night after night is a challenge no matter how you slice it, but things can get even more complicated if you’re trying to eat nutritious, healthy food. A seemingly simple recipe can turn out to have an ingredients list longer than a CVS receipt, and after all that work, the flavors can still seem bland. But it doesn’t have to be that way, as we’re reminded every time we make a recipe by Feel Good Foodie blogger Yumna Jawad, whose recently-released The Feel Good Foodie Cookbook: 125 Recipes Enhanced with Mediterranean Flavors is packed with entrees, side dishes, appetizers, and more that knock your usual “health” food out of the water in 10 ingredients or less. Her Lebanese and Mediterranean-inspired recipes lock in on special ingredients that can immediately take a dish of vegetables or lean proteins to the next level, so you never get bored.

So, what are some of the ingredients Jawad keeps on hand to make such tasty, nutritious meals? We got an exclusive look at the contents of her fridge, which was loaded with colorful veggies and flavor-boosting ingredients like briny olives and savory cheese. Paired with some delicious techniques (why have we never pan-fried our feta before?), Jawad’s ingredients come together to make a top-notch salad, just one of the recipes from The Feel Good Foodie Cookbook we know we’ll be adding to our weekly menu.

Get your copy of The Feel Good Foodie Cookbook: 125 Recipes Enhanced with Mediterranean Flavors today, and planning healthy meals for the fam will suddenly feel a whole lot easier.
