Tex-Mex Cottage Cheese Bowl

Taco-seasoned ground beef or turkey, roasted sweet potato, black beans, cottage cheese, avocado, salsa, and hot honey. The black beans are not decoration — they add serious fiber and protein while absorbing the taco-spiced meat juices. This bowl keeps you full longer than most.

Chermoula

Chermoula is Morocco's answer to chimichurri — a herb sauce built on cilantro and parsley, sharpened with lemon, warmed by cumin and paprika, cut through with raw garlic. It's used three ways in Moroccan cooking: as a marinade before cooking, a sauce spooned over at the end, and a condiment on the side. The fish version, where whole fish are stuffed and grilled with chermoula, is the most famous application. But it works equally well on chicken thighs, roasted cauliflower, fried eggs, grilled bread, or anything else that could use a hit of brightness. Make it in a food processor for speed, or by hand with a knife if you want more texture.

Chicken Tagine with Chermoula

Chermoula is a Moroccan marinade — raw herbs, garlic, cumin, lemon, oil — and it does more work here than the tagine itself. The chicken sits in it overnight if you have time, or two hours if you don't. Either way, something changes in the meat. Then it goes into the pot with preserved lemon, olives, and onion, and cooks low and slow until it falls off the bone. No tagine pot required. A wide, heavy pan with a lid does the same job.
