Eating healthy doesn't have to be hard. With the right recipes and ingredients, you can create delicious and nutritious meals for two that will make your taste buds happy and your bodies healthy. Here are some great healthy dinner recipes for two that you can enjoy with your significant other or with a friend.

Grilled Chicken and Veggies

This is a classic healthy dinner for two. Start by marinating two chicken breasts in olive oil, garlic, and your favorite herbs. While the chicken is marinating, prepare your favorite vegetables to go along with it. We recommend bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms. Preheat your grill and grill the chicken for about 7 minutes on each side. Grill the vegetables for about 5 minutes or until they are tender. Serve with a side of brown rice or quinoa.

Fish and Quinoa Bowls

This dish is packed with protein, fiber, and flavor. Start by cooking one cup of quinoa according to the package instructions. While the quinoa is cooking, heat some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add two pieces of your favorite fish (we recommend salmon or cod) and cook for about 4 minutes on each side. Once the fish is cooked, assemble the quinoa bowls. Divide the quinoa between two bowls and top each bowl with the cooked fish. Add your favorite vegetables and a squeeze of lemon juice. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.

Vegetarian Chili

This vegetarian chili is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables in a delicious way. Start by heating some olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add a chopped onion, red bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Add two cans of diced tomatoes, one can of black beans, one can of kidney beans, and one can of corn. Stir everything together and season with chili powder, cumin, oregano, and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes. Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt and some chopped cilantro.

Veggie Burgers

Veggie burgers are an easy and delicious alternative to traditional burgers. Start by heating some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add two veggie burger patties and cook for about 5 minutes on each side. While the burgers are cooking, prepare the buns. Toast two whole wheat buns and top each with a slice of cheese and some lettuce and tomato. Serve the burgers on the buns with your favorite condiments. Add some sweet potato fries on the side and you have a delicious and healthy dinner for two.

Pasta Primavera

This light and flavorful dish is a great way to get your veggies in. Start by heating some olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add a chopped onion, red bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Add a can of diced tomatoes and some fresh or frozen vegetables (we recommend carrots and broccoli). Simmer for about 10 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Meanwhile, cook 8 ounces of whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions. Once the pasta is cooked, combine it with the vegetables, season with salt and pepper, and top with some grated Parmesan cheese. Serve with a side salad and enjoy!
