I am looking for some recipes for healthy meals. Any ideas suggestions would be appreciated?

ORANGE ROSEMARY CHICKEN





1-1/2 c. orange juice


1/4 c. olive oil


1/4 c. chopped fresh chives


3 tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary


1 tsp. salt


1 tsp. ground black pepper


1 (2-1/2 lb.) whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces





In a medium bowl, mix the orange juice, olive oil, chives, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken in the mixture. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours. Pre-heat the oven broiler. Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet. Broil 30 minutes, 6 to 8 inches from heat. Turn and brush frequently with the remaining marinade mixture, until no longer pink and juices run clear.





BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH MUSHROOMS





4 c. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved


1/2 lb. whole mushrooms


5 tbsp. butter


1/2 c. chopped fresh parsley


Salt and pepper to taste


Fresh lemon juice





Cook Brussels sprouts in a pot of lightly salted boiling water for 15 minutes, or until fork-tender; strain through a colander, removing as much water as possible. Set aside. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook and stir mushrooms until lightly browned. Toss Brussels sprouts with mushrooms, and sprinkle with parsley and lemon juice. Serve immediately.





ORANGE ROASTED SALMON





2 oranges, sliced into rounds


1 onion, thinly sliced


1 1/2 Tbs. olive oil


5 6 oz. salmon fillets


1 Tbs. lemon pepper


1-1/2 tsp. garlic powder


1 Tbs. dried parsley


1/2 C. orange juice


1-1/2 Tbs. lemon juice


1 Tbs. honey





Preheat the oven to 400 F. In a small bowl or cup, stir together the lemon pepper, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Place the slices from one of the oranges in a single layer in the bottom of a 9 x13 inch baking dish. Place a layer of onion slices over the orange. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil, and sprinkle with half of the herb mixture. Place the dish in the pre-heated oven, and roast for about 25 minutes, or until the onions are browned and tender. Remove the dish from the oven, and increase the temperature to 450 F. Push the onion and orange slices to the outer edge of the baking dish, and place the salmon fillets in the center. Season with the remaining half of the herb mixture. Whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice and honey in a small bowl. Pour evenly over the salmon. Bake for 12-15 minutes in the pre-heated oven, or until the salmon is opaque in the center. Remove fillets to a serving dish, and discard the roasted orange. Garnish fillets with roasted onions and fresh orange slices. Makes 5 servings.





ROASTED GREEN BEANS AND RED PEPPERS





3/4 pound green beans, trimmed


1 large red bell pepper, cut into strips


1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil





Salt and pepper to taste. Preheat oven to 500 F. Toss green beans and bell pepper with oil, salt and pepper to taste. Spread in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet and roast at 500 F. until browned and tender, turning once halfway through cooking.
