Steps:
- Prepare an outdoor grill or a grill pan for medium heat.
- Whisk together 1 tablespoon of the oil and the lemon zest in a large bowl. Add the chicken to the oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Divide the chicken and thread onto metal or bamboo skewers.
- Toast the pine nuts in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing frequently, until light golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool.
- Combine the pine nuts, basil, parsley, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper in a food processor. Process to make a coarse paste. Add the avocado, lemon juice and remaining 3 tablespoons oil and process until mostly smooth.
- Grill the chicken, turning often, until just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve the chicken dolloped with the pesto and any extra pesto on the side.

- EGGS + AVOCADO + PEPPER. This bowl is filled with some of the most potent fat-blasting ingredients Mother Nature has to offer. While the egg yolks provide choline, a nutrient that promotes the breakdown of stored fat, the avocado lends a healthy helping of monounsaturated fats and oleic fatty acids, which have been proven to spot-reduce abdominal flab.
- ONIONS + PEPPERS + CELERY + SAUSAGE. Oatmeal is just another grain, like rice or grits, so it's no surprise that it fares well as a Jambalaya-style dish.
- SPINACH + TOMATOES + EGG + HEMP HEARTS. We love that this savory dish calls for hemp seeds. Not only are they super-trendy right now, but they can ward off heart disease, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, likely because of their high fiber and omega-3 count.
- SUN-DRIED TOMATO + PESTO + PARMESAN. The pesto and cheese provide the majority of the flavor, while the tomatoes bring the bulk of the nutrients. The sun-dried fruit is rich in stress-busting vitamin C and lycopene, an antioxidant that lowers risk of cardiovascular disease, skin damage, and certain cancers.
- VEGGIES + CHICKEN STOCK + PARMESAN + EGGS. Chicken stock imparts plenty of flavor with a negligible calorie cost, while the eggs, avocado, and veggies provide a host of healthy fats and filling nutrients like protein, fiber, and water.
- PAPRIKA + ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL + ARUGULA + EGG. Before you head out for the day, combine rosemary, olive oil, water, and oatmeal in a Tupperware container and store it in the refrigerator.
- SPICES + VEGGIES + SWEET POTATO FRIES. Instagrammer JessWentBananas takes her oats from drab and drool-worthy by adding ingredients like sautéed veggies, grated zucchini, leftover sweet potato fries and a generous serving of chili powder to her bowl.
- BROTH + SPICES + VEGGIES + VEGGIE BURGER + SRIRACHA. This vegan-friendly bowl relies on vegetable broth, nutritional yeast and a plethora of spices for its robust savory and cheesy flavor, while greens, avocado, rice crackers and a crumbled veggie burger add satiety-boosting bulk and added nutrients.
- BACON + CHEDDAR + SCALLIONS + EGG. The classic BEC—bacon, egg, and cheese, that is—gets a flat-belly makeover by switching out the blood-sugar-raising white flour bun for a satiating bed of oats.
- MUSHROOMS + CARAMELIZED ONIONS + BACON. Savory does not even begin to describe this dish. Sweet, caramelized onions, salty bacon, and earthy mushrooms combine to form this risotto-like baked oatmeal.
