Looking for quick and refreshing dinner for this week?🥙

Try this simple, no-rise flatbread, grilled until crispy and topped with hummus and a cucumber-tomato salad!🍅🥒

Instructions - Makes 4
**Instead of making your own flatbread, you can also find Stonefire Naan Flatbreads at the grocery store**

1. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and stir with a fork to combine. Add the yogurt and stir until a moist, shaggy dough forms.
2. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, 10 to 15 turns. Divide into 6 balls and flatten them slightly with the palm of your hand. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Set aside while you make the salad.
3.Heat the grill to medium-high, direct heat (400 to 450°F). Toss the tomatoes, cucumbers, bell pepper, onion, parsley, and mint together in a large bowl. Add the lemon juice, sumac, and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
4. Uncover the flatbreads and roll each into a 6-inch round. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with the olive oil and place oil-side down on the grill. Brush the tops with more oil. Cover and grill until the bread begins to puff up and the undersides are crisp, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip and grill until the second side is browned, 2 to 4 minutes more. Remove from the grill.
5. Divide the hummus evenly among flatbreads, followed by Israeli salad. Top with feta, olives, and chicken for extra protein if you desire!

🌿 Cannoli Basil Seed Protein Pudding

A high-protein, no-bake snack or dessert with creamy ricotta, Greek yogurt, and basil seeds — inspired by the flavors of cannoli filling!

Instructions - Servings 2:
1. In a small bowl, mix the basil seeds with almond milk. Stir well and let them soak for 10–15 minutes, until they form a gel-like consistency.
2. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the ricotta, Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, Swerve, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
3. Fold the basil seed gel into the ricotta-yogurt mixture until evenly mixed.
4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up and allow the flavors to develop. You can also prep this the night before for a thicker texture.
5Spoon into serving dishes and top with a few mini dark chocolate chips, pistachios, or cacao nibs if desired. Enjoy cold!

Feeling constantly hungry, tired, or stuck in your progress? 🥱🍽️ It might be time to take a closer look at your protein intake.

Here are 3 signs you might need more protein in your day:
1️⃣ You're always hungry—even after meals
2️⃣ You're feeling fatigued or low in energy
3️⃣ You're experiencing hair loss, brittle nails, and injuries take forever to heal

Protein isn’t just for athletes — it’s essential for energy, mood, metabolism, and keeping you full and satisfied. Small tweaks can make a huge difference. 💪✨

Truth or Myth: Eating after 7PM causes weight gain.

Let’s break it down 👇

⏰ Your body doesn’t magically store food as fat after a certain time. What matters most is total intake, food quality, and consistency—not the time on the clock.

🍽️ Eating late at night can be totally appropriate if:
✔ You’re genuinely hungry
✔ You haven’t met your needs earlier in the day
✔ You’re balancing meals with protein, fiber, and healthy fats

What can be an issue is mindless snacking, skipping meals all day, or emotional eating—not the time itself.

So yes, you can absolutely have dinner at 8pm or a snack at 9pm without “ruining” your progress.
