Homemade Bagels

Published on by lacylynnetteLeave a comment

This easy recipe was amazing! I will call out that in the above picture, I missed showing the baking powder and 1 egg used.

  • 1 cup Flour
  • 1 Cup Cottage Cheese (any %, I used 1%)
  • 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/4 cup Shredded Cheese (you could go with more here)
  • 1 Egg
  • Everything Bagel Seasoning
  • Fresh Jalapeno (if desired)

Mix the cottage cheese, flour, baking soda, and shredded cheese together, kneading into a ball. Some mention blending the cottage cheese but I did not do this. Separate into 4 portions and form into little bagels. Brush the tops with some egg and season with everything bagel seasoning and a sprinkle of additional cheese. I added fresh slices of jalapeno to the top of two of them (I love spice!). Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. I didn’t use parchment paper which was mentioned in the various videos where I have seen these made and they still turned out amazing! Nutrition is below per bagel. I did not even find myself needing butter or cream cheese on mine.

Turkey Meal Options

Published on by lacylynnetteLeave a comment

Another week down hitting my fitness goals for protein and a more balanced diet as well as working out 5 days out of 7. The images above show just a few of my meals this week. Image 1 is where I replaced my pasta with zucchini noodles and used turkey sausage instead of burger as my protein. I also found this great sauce option where Ragu partnered with Hot Ones and I do love spice! So far, I have tried the middle option and it was amazing (ordered a new set already to have a spare one ready to go when this set is gone). No special replacement health wise but not everything needs to be swapped and some things just need to be enjoyed! Around 400 calories, including a half slice of sourdough and 25 grams of protein. I also included mushrooms down over the zoodles.

Image 2 was something I saw made online that required smashing 4oz of ground turkey onto a low carb tortilla and frying this on the stove. Toss tomato, onion, and spinach with some vinegar and seasonings and put some down over the burger. Add some tzatziki sauce down over, fold into a taco and enjoy! I also had a side of baked broccoli seasoned with salt/ pepper and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. 350 calories, 30 grams of protein. Certainly, room to bump this one up with a side of potatoes. I ended up also having some fresh fruit after dinner.

The last image is a simple Turkey lettuce wrap made with ground turkey, onions, jalapenos, and laughing cow spreadable cheese. I also threw a little chipotle ranch on there. I had a cup of fat free cottage cheese to go with it. Around 400 calories with 43 grams of protein.
