    • Easy Chicken Dinner Recipes -->This collection of easy chicken dinner recipes features some of our favorite family dishes, perfect for making a healthy, delicious home cooked meal on a busy night! Getting a healthy, home cooked meal on the table every night can be challenging. Particularly with the demands of work, school, activities and social obligations, well, it can be the last thing we want to do at the end of the day. So I’ve got tons of easy chicken recipes at my disposal that I turn to when I need to whip something up for us on one of those busy weeknights. (Or even busy weekends – dinners can be tough then, too!) And this collection of easy chicken dinner recipes has some that we make over and over again. It includes everything from skillet chicken dinners to slow cooker chicken recipes, one-pot chicken pastas, soups and salads with chicken, chicken burgers and meatballs, sheet pan chicken dinners and easy chicken casseroles. Are you looking for fast as well as easy? Me too. I’ve got collections of chicken recipes in under 30 minutes and, faster still, chicken recipes in under 15 minutes. Or if you want to browse them all, my quick chicken recipes…
      • Easy Chicken Recipes with Few IngredientsThese easy chicken recipes with few ingredients include some great healthy lunch and dinner options, all made with 5 or fewer ingredients! I am all about the EASY when it comes to cooking. I don’t like to fuss much over my food and I certainly don’t like to spend a ton of time in the kitchen at the end of a long day. Easy chicken dinner recipes and healthy lunch recipes with chicken are much more my style. (As are chicken recipes in under 30 minutes and, faster yet, chicken recipes in under 15 minutes. Cause life.) Speaking of life, a million trips to the grocery store also aren’t fun during a busy week. (Especially with little ones in tow!) So I’ve got these go-to easy chicken recipes with few ingredients that help me keep dinnertime simple. And my sanity intact. In fact, one of the first cookbooks I bought on my own, at a used bookstore in Washington, D.C., where I lived for a few years after college, was titled 3-ingredient recipes. I was pretty new to cooking and thought, I think I can handle that. My cooking skills have improved, but I still go for the simple chicken recipes…
      • Quick Chicken RecipesThis collection of quick chicken recipes features some of our favorite family dinners and go-to lunches, all ready in 30 minutes or less! From chicken skillet dinners to one-pot pastas, salads to burgers, you’re sure to find some new favorites! If you know me, you know I am ALL about the quick and easy recipes. I love making all of our homemade meals and home cooked dinners, but like you, I’ve also got a hundred other things to juggle and so keeping things simple in the kitchen is a must. And these quick chicken recipes include all of my chicken recipes in under 30 minutes and, even faster, chicken recipes in under 15 minutes. Sanity savers for sure. Busy weeknights have nothing on us! A few of our favorites from these quick chicken recipes: Healthy chicken Alfredo with broccoli Creamy chipotle chicken 20-minute chicken and tortellini soup with kale Skillet salsa chicken Easy creamy chicken This collection also has some healthy lunch recipes with chicken for mixing up your lunch routine. (It doesn’t include my slow cooker chicken recipes though, since those aren’t ready in 30 minutes. But they can be super quick to prep in the morning and then…
        • Chicken Recipes in Under 15 MinutesThese easy chicken recipes in under 15 minutes are perfect for dinner on a busy weeknight! From one-pot wonders to salads, chicken skillets to tacos, you’re sure to find some new fast favorites! You know those nights when you walk in the door and need dinner pronto?! Like, 5 minutes ago? That’s when I turn to these quick and easy chicken recipes in under 15 minutes. I can make a healthy, home cooked meal for my family and be sitting down to enjoy it in no time. Cause plenty of evenings, 15 minutes is often all the time I have – or want to spend – on dinner. I’m not alone on that, right?! You can browse below but I thought I’d highlight a couple that I make over and over again. A few of our favorite easy chicken recipes in under 15 minutes: 15-minute honey garlic chicken (gets rave reviews!) Southwest chicken skillet dinner (pile on your favorite toppings!) Quick chicken curry (perfect with rice and peas) One-pot low-carb leftover chicken recipe with spinach (my dad’s go-to recipe) This collection also includes some healthy lunch options that are quick to put together — like the Asian chicken mason jar…
        • Chicken Recipes in Under 30 MinutesThese easy chicken recipes in under 30 minutes are perfect for dinner on a busy weeknight! From one-pan meals to burgers, one-pot pastas to healthy salads, you’re sure to find some new favorites! Quick, easy and mostly healthy is pretty much the name of the game for dinner at my house. I love a home cooked meal and we eat a ton of chicken, which means I’ve come up with and found a lot of easy chicken recipes over the years. And this collection highlights some of my easy chicken recipes in under 30 minutes, when you want something delicious but need it on the table pretty quickly. Is that every single night for you too? We’ve got everything from skillet chicken dishes to chicken pasta and from soups and salads with chicken to chicken meatballs and burgers. All the chicken love! Many of these recipes use boneless, skinless chicken breasts (though you could substitute chicken thighs if you prefer) while others use ground chicken and some rely on pre-cooked chicken, such as a rotisserie chicken you pick up at the store or some leftover grilled or baked chicken. Lots of these 30 minute chicken dinners are complete meals but…
      • Healthy One-Pot Chicken DinnersHealthy one-pot chicken dinners are such a help on busy days! This collection includes everything from one-pot pastas and skillets to easy slow cooker and sheet pan recipes to help you get an easy, healthy and delicious dinner on the table any night! I am ALL about quick and easy meals. I cook our dinner 99% of the time, including on days when work has blown up in my face, or the kids have decided to coordinate their melt-downs, or we’re all just wiped out and hungry. And even though I love to cook, I definitely have those days when I’m just not feeling it. Enter some quick and easy one-pot chicken dinners for the win! These are great to have in your back pocket for busy days, busy weeks or in case of a “kids-are-making-me-crazy” kinda moment. (My husband also loves these meals because he’s on clean-up duty and it’s nice not to have a huge pile of dishes staring you down after dinner!) Many of these dishes are complete meals on their own. Others are low-carb as written, but can easily be paired with some rice, pasta, bread or potatoes to bulk them up a bit. Here are…
      • Slow Cooker Chicken RecipesThese hands-off slow cooker chicken recipes will put your slow cooker to work and have you coming home to a delicious, healthy dinner that’s ready to go! Some days, you just need someone else to make you dinner. I’m not talking takeout or delivery or a restaurant dinner. I’m talking about your crock pot or slow cooker. I find it supremely satisfying to go about my day, knowing that a delicious home cooked dinner is cooking up at home for me. I can play with the kids, take them to practices, run errands or just relax with a book and breathe easy. These slow cooker chicken recipes mean there is just one less thing to do in the evening and that’s a great thing on a busy day! This collection includes slow cooker recipes for boneless, skinless chicken breasts as well as chicken thighs (though you can usually sub either one). And many of these take just minutes to prep in the morning! 👍 Here’s a few of our favorite slow cooker chicken recipes: Slow cooker balsamic chicken Slow cooker bistro chicken thighs Slow cooker apricot chicken Crock pot Mediterranean chicken Slow cooker teriyaki chicken And be sure to check…
    • Easy Vegetarian RecipesEasy vegetarian recipes include main-dish meals that are hearty and satisfying and can stand alone for lunch or dinner (with a few savory breakfast options as well). Everything from one-pot veggie pastas to stuffed squash to chili to veggie burgers and hearty grain bowls and salads, there are meatless options here for everyone! I am a veggie lover through and through. 💚💚💚 I adore getting in as many vegetables as I can, throughout the day really, and I often make easy vegetarian dinners a couple of times a week. (Hello meatless Monday, I’m looking at you!) So over the years, I’ve created tons of great veggie-based meals that can stand on their own for lunch or dinner and be hearty and satisfying. And that are also mostly quick and easy, because I work as a health and nutrition editor and we’ve got a busy family so cooking on a weeknight needs to be low-key. My one-pot vegetarian spaghetti has been a hugely popular recipe here on the blog and you guys can’t seem to get enough of my grain bowls and salads. I know the feeling. 😉 I wanted to round up some of these in an easy-to-browse category that features…
    • Healthy Oatmeal RecipesA collection of healthy oatmeal recipes, including sweet and savory breakfast and brunch options as well as delicious, wholesome snacks and desserts. We are pretty much oatmeal fanatics in my house. ALL of us adore oatmeal and it’s a rare day that we’re not making or eating something with oats or oatmeal in it at some point during the day. And I mean all four of us – my husband, myself and our kids (currently ages 6 and 4). Our go-to 3-minute microwave oatmeal is a morning staple for my husband and a weekly staple for the kids and me. My kids eat overnight oatmeal jars at least twice a week for breakfast and we often have baked oatmeal another morning of the week. For school lunches or afternoon snack, we can be found munching on some no-bake cookie or energy balls with oats, oatmeal cookies of some variety or if they’ve asked nicely, I’ll make a batch of granola and we all just shovel handful after handful until it’s gone. Want to know some of our very favorites of the group below? OK, I’ll share! Our family’s favorite healthy oatmeal recipes: Healthy chocolate chip muffins Overnight oatmeal jars, 3…
    • Healthy Muffin RecipesA collection of easy, kid-friendly healthy muffin recipes for all times of day: breakfast, school lunch, snacking, dinner and dessert! We are BIG muffin lovers in this house, at all times of day! My kiddos love them for breakfast, brunch, school lunch, afternoon snack and sometimes even savory muffins at dinner. Muffins all the time! I’ve made thousands of healthy muffin recipes over the years and I love sharing them with you! There are plenty to browse below and plenty more I plan to add! (You can sign up for my newsletter so you never miss a recipe. You’ll also get my FREE e-book of easy weeknight dinners.) Wondering where to start? Spinach banana mini muffins and whole wheat pumpkin muffins are some of our constant favorites. Healthy peanut butter and jelly muffins are fun for lunch and easy cheesy cornbread muffins are great for a quick + easy dinner side, especially with soup or chili! And if you’re in the mood for a little chocolate (I know I always am!) you can’t go wrong with my healthy chocolate chip muffins. Hope you find some new favorite healthy muffin recipes! XO, Kathryn
    • Healthy DessertsThis collection of healthy desserts features everything from lightened up cookie bars and brownies to cakes, muffins and breads to no-bake energy bites. It’s the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth while staying on track with healthy choices! Healthy desserts are kind-of my jam. I like a dessert that gives back. One that has redeeming qualities. A sweet treat that’s going to treat me right. But of course, it also needs to be delicious so I actually satisfy those sweet cravings! The healthier dessert recipes you’ll find below are some of our go-to treats that are perfect for a healthier late-night option and many of which are great for offering kids a wholesome, but fun, treat for an after-school snack or tucked in their lunch box.

These fall recipes are whole grain and most are naturally sweetened for a wholesome, delicious treat at breakfast, snack, school lunch or dessert! Does anyone else get the baking bug when the cooler weather starts to roll in during autumn? I know I do! I get excited for all the apple baking projects, pumpkin baking projects and even getting ready for all the holiday baking to come! 🍎🎃 The spices, the warmth, the aroma of having something in the oven is just part of the season for me. Plus the love that comes from a homemade baked good – it just can’t be beat! ❤️ And y’all know my style is definitely a healthier version of baking. I use whole grains and most of my recipes are naturally sweetened. I try to lighten things up where possible and keep to mostly wholesome treats, maybe with a little indulgence here and there! 😉 Wondering where to start?

Oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies

Wholesome oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies that are 100% whole grain and naturally sweetened.A stack of oatmeal raisin cookies on a white plate with milk and oranges in the background

Having cookies for breakfast is no longer just for naughty grown-ups! It’s a real thing and I’ve seen plenty of registered dietitians endorse the trend, so it must be good for us!

However, I think we can all agree there need to be some standards for breakfast cookies.

Store-bought varieties tend to be full of sugar and processed grains. In other words, junk and not that much different than regular cookies. #sneaky

A plate full of breakfast cookies with orange slices, raisins and a glass of milk nearby

But these oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies are completely wholesome.

They are naturally sweetened and full of whole grains, plus healthy fats and protein from the peanut butter, to give you some fuel in the mornings.

It’s a sweet treat to start the day and a lovely way to power through until lunch. And they are super fast to prep and bake and the extras store great in the freezer.

Which is why I usually make them ahead.

Mornings are busy enough without baking first thing. (Which is why we eat so many overnight oats and baked oatmeal and oatmeal raisin mini muffins that are all made ahead. Yes, we are totally oatmeal obsessed.)

The last time I made these, I took them out of the oven before I picked the kids up from preschool after lunch. They saw the cookies on the counter when we got back home, on the way upstairs for nap. When J, who is 2 1/2, came downstairs after nap, he looks around and looks at me and says, “Where my cookies?”

Don’t mess with a little boy and his cookies. 😂

So that day they were snack cookies instead of breakfast cookies. 👍

You can adjust the recipe as needed, too.

Notes on making oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies:

  • Feel free to substitute almond butter or sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter.
  • You could sub a gluten-free flour blend for the white whole wheat flour to make them gluten-free if needed.
  • For a vegan-friendly version, substitute maple syrup for the honey.

Easy to adapt because I wholeheartedly believe everyone should be able to eat some cookies for breakfast! ❤️

A hand holding a cookie with a bite taken out

So no more hiding in the pantry or sneaking a half a cookie while no one is looking in the mornings. (That’s not just me, right?!) Serve ’em up and serve ’em up proud. 🙂

And if you’re a mom out there, I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day full of sleeping in, breakfast in bed, a showering of gifts, midday nap, a pedicure and a massage and a big glass of wine (or bourbon). #hahaIwish.

Or maybe just settle for one of these cookies and be thankful for the chaos 😉

Enjoy!

XO,

Kathryn

Oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies

Healthy oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies - whole grain and naturally sweetened

Wholesome oatmeal raisin breakfast cookies are 100% whole grain and naturally sweetened for a fun and healthy breakfast. They freeze great too!

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (or sub almond butter or sunflower seed butter)
  • 1/3 cup honey (or sub maple syrup)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1/2 cup raisins

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350.
  2. Combine oats, flour and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
  3. In a small bowl, mash the banana and add the peanut butter, honey and vanilla. Stir well to combine.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the raisins.
  5. Drop cookie dough on a parchment paper or silpat-lined baking sheet to make 12 even cookies. Use your fingers (it’s easier if you wet them first) to shape each one into a cookie shape - these do not spread out while baking.
  6. Bake at 350 for 16-20 minutes, until golden brown and done.
  7. Store in an airtight container in the pantry for 2-3 days, in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes

The extras freeze beautifully! I put the baked, cooled cookies in a ziploc freezer bag (label it!) and pull them straight out of the freezer as needed. You can reheat the cookies, straight from the freezer, in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds for a quick sweet snack or on-the-go breakfast.

    Wow, Kathryn! I love how easy these are to make and the small list of ingredients! Actually a cookie that I don’t mind eating a few of, lol. Perhaps I’ll have to make a double batch of these; I’m thinking they won’t last long. And, I think they are just perfect for breakfast 🙂 Have a lovely, relaxing Mother’s Day! xo

    Cookies for breakfast is a real thing? Guess I’m just ahead of the curve. Seriously though, these look like they’d stick with you all morning. Does the banana flavor come through at all? I love bananas, but my wife would rather be electrocuted than be faced with that fruit first thing in the morning.

      I don’t think they have much of a banana flavor at all – it’s more just for some natural sweetness. They are a good hearty option – and fun 🙂

    I love the idea of a healthy cookie for b’fast… so now I have 2 questions….

    1. Can you taste the banana flavor ?
    2. is there something I could sub for the banana ?

    My kids do not like bananas and if you can taste it …. they won’t eat them
    thanks for any help & advise you can share

      Hi Abby! I don’t think they have much of a banana flavor at all. It’s mostly there for natural sweetness. If your kids do detect it, you could try subbing unsweetened applesauce (about 1/3 cup, I’d think) and see if that works for you. Would love to hear if you try them!

    This is sooo good! I’ve made many different oatmeal bakes in my day, and my husband said of this one: “I’m going to go on the record and say that this is the best one you’ve ever made!” I did make a couple modifications. I doubled the recipe and put it in a 9×13 pan. For the 3 cups of milk, I used a mix of Almond Milk, 2% milk, and heavy cream. Also, I did 1/2 cup maple syrup instead of 2/3 cup, and it was still sweet enough for our liking. All in all this is an awesome recipe, with the perfect denseness, texture, and flavor. My son loved it with some spray whipped cream on top 🙂

      Hi Brianne! Yes, I think that would be fine to substitute almond flour. Would love to hear how they turn out!

        They were great with the almond flour! I also used maple syrup – my preschooler loves them!
