250 grams water

150 grams sourdough starter

10 grams sea salt

500 grams bread flour

Put water and starter in a bowl and stir together.  Add in salt and bread flour.  Stir with spoon to get everything mixed then use your bread hook on mixer and mix for a few minutes.  Take dough out and stretch (I don't get fancy with this part). Place in bowl and cover with a towel. Wait at least 30 minutes and stretch again-  I honesty do not stretch mine but 1-2 more times.  Put unbleached parchment paper in dutch oven, place dough in it, and cover with towel.  Leave on counter and let sit over night or until dough is proofed.  Bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes WITH dutch lid on.  Take lid off after 20 min and bake 9 minutes.  Let cool before you cut into it. 

2 lbs lean ground turkey

1-2 tsp Italian seasoning

1-2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

2-3 tbsp minced garlic

1-2 tsp garlic powder

1-2 tsp black pepper

2 eggs

1/3 cup bread flour

1-1.5 shredded spinach

Optional: sliced onion

Heat a skillet on medium-high heat with 2 tbsp of olive or avocado oil.  While pan is heating, mix everything else in a bowl and form your meatballs (about 2-3 tbps of mixture per ball). Place in skillet and fry about 3-4 minutes each side- flip and repeat.  Cover with a lid for 3-5 minutes until fully cooked on inside (165 degrees).  I used a little bit of Rao marinara sauce (less sugar and better ingredients) on top of mine.  

2 shots espresso

1 cup Fairlife milk (I use reduced fat, ultra filtered lactose free)

1/2 scoop protein powder

If you want this to be hot, heat the milk in the microwave for abut 1.5 minutes.  Add in espresso and protein powder and blend using a milk  frother. 

If you want this iced, blend all three things together with a frother and pour over ice.

Tip: if you do not have an espresso machine at home, the local coffee shops will sell you shots of espresso. 

Shredded boneless chicken breast or rotisserie chicken with skin off

Plain Greek yogurt

Diced carrots and celery

Fresh dill

salt, pepper, and garlic to taste

Mix shredded chicken with the Greek yogurt.  Add in your choice of veggies carrots or celery or both.  Fresh dill and salt, pepper, and garlic to taste.  This is super easy to make and store for future meals.  Goes great on salads, wrap, or even a slice of whole wheat or sourdough toast. 

1 small/medium apple

1 container or 1 serving of vanilla yogurt

Cinnamon

Dice apple into cubes.  Place in air fryer and cook at 390 degrees for approximately 5-6 minutes (you can eye it to see if it needs to be cooked more). Add to your yogurt and as much cinnamon you desire.  Add a few tsp of honey for extra sweetness.

1 cup low fat cottage cheese

2 large eggs

1 cup old fashioned oats

1-2 tsp baking powder

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

Blend everything together and if consistency is too thick, add a little bit of almond/oat milk or water to make it better.  After you blend it, add in berries of choice.  Spray skillet and cook until the center is not wet.
