Monday meal and ingredient prep

First – baked turkey thighs with onion, carrot, mushroom and potato.
Recipe: I softened salted butter and added finely chopped rosemary, garlic, thyme, parsley, salt and black pepper. Place the seasoned butter under the turkey skin and brown skin down on medium heat. Flip the thighs over and layer in the chopped veggies. Place in the oven 350F for 45 minutes.

Second – blueberry protein muffins
Recipe link – I used less sugar and blueberry flavored protein powder.

Third- ingredient prep of matchstick bell peppers. I throw them in the freezer on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Then transfer to a Ziploc bag. Makes dinner so much easier

Fourth – creamy chicken and veggie soup
Recipe -melt a tablespoon of salted butter and saute diced onion and celery until softened. Add chicken stock, diced celery and broccoli. Bring to boil for 5-7 minutes. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Make a slurry of evaporated milk and flour whisk together well. Add slurry to soup slowly and stirring constantly. Cover your pot and let it simmer until thickened. Then add your cut up cooked chicken and chopped spinach.
