½ lb (3 to 4 medium) Roma tomatoes, chopped
½ English cucumber or 3 smaller garden cucumbers, sliced
½ medium red onion, thinly sliced
2 avocados, peeled, pitted and sliced
1 cup corn kernels (from 2 fresh cobs or canned drained corn)

⅛ tsp freshly ground black pepper

Turkey Taco Stuffed Sweet Potatoes 🙂
Ingredients:
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 tsp olive oil
1 ¼ tsp ground cumin, divided
¼ + ⅛ tsp salt
¼ + ⅛ tsp ground pepper
¾ lb. lean ground turkey
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp chili powder
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp paprika
1 ¼ cup canned crushed tomatoes
¼ cup grated pepper Jack cheese
2 tbsp minced flat-leaf parsley
Instructions:
Pierce the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Cook in the microwave on HIGH until tender when pierced with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Let the potatoes rest until cool enough to handle.
Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop the flesh out of the potatoes and place in a medium-sized bowl. Reserve the skins. With the back of a fork, mash the potato flesh until most lumps are gone. Stir in the olive oil, ½ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoons salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Divide the mashed sweet potato evenly between the potato skins. Place on a baking sheet.
While the potatoes are cooking, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through. Stir in the garlic, chilli powder, remaining ¾ teaspoon cumin, oregano, paprika, and remaining ⅛ teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute. Stir in the crushed tomatoes.
Preheat the broiler. Spoon the turkey mixture into each sweet potato skin. Top each with 1 tablespoon grated cheese. Broil until the cheese is melted, about 30 seconds. Garnish with parsley. Serve.

Juice from half an orange (about ¼ cup fresh squeezed orange juice)

Add the salmon, skin-side down, and sear on one side for 3-4 minutes. Flip salmon and sear for 2 minutes.

Ingredients:
For the Chicken Marinade:
1 cup plain yogurt or Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (not cayenne pepper)
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons finely minced garlic
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast , cut into small bite-sized pieces
For the Sauce:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 large sweet onion , finely diced
2 teaspoons grated ginger
2 cloves garlic , finely minced
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garam masala
8 ounce can tomato sauce (unseasoned)
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup 1/4 cup water , only if needed
Instructions-
In a bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the marinade; add the chicken and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes to 1 hour (ideally overnight in the fridge, if time permits.)
Warm oil in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add chicken pieces in batches, if necessary, making sure not to crowd the pan. Let them fry, untouched, for 1 minute to develop a crust, then saute until browned for about 5 more minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
Melt the butter in the same pan. Saute the onions until soft (about 3 minutes) while scraping up any browned bits stuck on the bottom of the pan. Add ginger and garlic; sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add in the brown sugar, coriander, cumin, paprika, garam masala, and salt. Stir occasionally for about 15 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the tomato sauce; let simmer gently for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until sauce thickens and becomes deeper in color. Stir in the cream until incorporated. Add the partially cooked chicken along with its juices back to the pan; cook for an additional 8-10 minutes until chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thick and bubbling. Pour in the water to thin out the sauce, only if necessary.
Serve over cooked basmati rice, with Naan bread, and garnish with chopped cilantro.
