This is a staple dinner in my household. We make it almost once every week, and my mom always uses the leftovers to make her delicious chicken soup. The measurements of this recipe aren’t written because it all depends on the size of your chicken and your flavor preferences. You can even mix up this recipe by using different seasonings and experimenting with flavors.

PUMPKIN PANCAKES

Although I love a sweet treat anytime of the day, I try to make sure I am getting a good amount of nutrients in my body when I wake up in the morning. That is why I made these healthier and festive pumpkin pancakes. But of course, you can replace the oat flour with regular flour and the almond milk with regular milk if you prefer.

THANKSGIVING LEFTOVER TURKEY SALAD

This recipe was inspired by a salad my mom used to love from a restaurant where she worked. I decided to put a little twist on my mom’s delicious recipe by using turkey instead of chicken. Since Thanksgiving just passed, and it is always difficult to get rid of leftovers, this is a terrific option for a post-Thanksgiving meal.

TURKEY MEAT SPRING ROLLS

This is a flavorful dish that came to mind when I was thinking of a late-night dinner idea. We had spring roll papers sitting in our pantry for a while, so I made a lighter version of an egg roll mixed with the flavors of a regular spring roll. If you do try this recipe, I strongly recommend that you use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce. It adds a sweeter flavor than regular soy sauce, while still being perfectly salty.

NAAN PROTEIN BREAD

Recently, there have been hundreds of influencers promoting “gut-healthy, hormone-balancing” cottage cheese recipes on the internet. I have to admit, this cottage cheese naan bread recipe is worth a shot if you're bread-obsessed, like me, but want to eat something with a little more substance. It’s not a replica of traditional naan bread. But it’s a winner. I often make it as a quick and easy after-school snack.

A GREAT STEAK

This is my attempt to follow Molly Baz’s (a huge inspiration to me as a chef) “Really Great Steak” recipe, and it turned out fantastic. This was my first time cooking a steak, and to be honest, before this, I wasn’t a big steak fan, but I have been converted. Even my dad, who is a steak connoisseur, was impressed. These are the steps and ingredients that I followed to make Molly Baz’s “Really Great Steak.”
