One-Skillet Sweet Potato Turkey Bowl

Ground turkey, sweet potato, spinach, and bell pepper — all cooked in one skillet on the stovetop, no oven needed. The sweet potato steams under a lid with a splash of broth while the turkey browns. Top with cold cottage cheese, avocado, and hot honey. The fastest version in this bowl series.

Spiced Butternut-Sweet Potato Bowl

Roasted butternut squash and sweet potato together, ground turkey with warm autumn spices, cottage cheese, avocado, and hot honey. The gentlest bowl in this series. Sweet potato holds its shape and caramelizes at the edges; squash softens into something almost melting. Together they make a base that is richer and more layered than either one alone.

Shurpa

Samsa (Uzbek Lamb Pastries)

Samsa are Uzbek baked pastries with a crisp, layered dough and a juicy filling of hand-chopped lamb and onion. The layering is built by rolling butter into thin sheets of dough, which creates flaky, oven-crisped pastry without a drop of yeast. The golden rule: chop the meat with a knife, never mince it, and use as much onion as meat.
