Homemade Naan

I know I’ve waxed poetic in the past about how making bread is SO FUN and I just love doing it.

That being said it also scares the bejeezus out of me.  I mean, most homemade breads need time to let the dough grow (scary!) and then you have to knead it and then you have to bake it and then I realize I live at high altitude and therefore all bread is going to be slightly different than the recipe.  It’s exhausting, and I tend to have minor freak-outs whenever I decide that it’s time to bust into the bread-making scene again.

 

One would wonder, as I’m sure Nate does, why in the world I make bread then.

 

Because it’s FUN darnit!

Also I have a confession to make.  I read a lot of really great blogs and find myself saying almost every time that I can’t wait to try something and then promptly bookmarking said recipe.  And then it takes me for-e-ver to get around to making it.  For this I am sorry…I really do want to make everything I see!  I think I might have tried once too…and then realized that making food also encompasses both buying and eating the food.  And there’s just not enough room in my tummy or my wallet for it all the time.  But a girl can dream, right?

 

Right!

So when, several months ago, I found this recipe on Tasty Kitchen for Homemade Naan I gasped from excitement – it doesn’t have yeast!  You can just use regular things you already have in your kitchen!  You get to char the bread over a burner!  What’s not to be excited about?

 

And let me tell you, this was killer.  I loved how soft and supple the bread is, and although I got a little char-happy it just added great flavor.

Homemade naan y’all, it’s where it’s at.

    I love making naan! And it usually makes a ton – I’m always wanting more when I’m at a restaurant. 🙂

    I just had Indian food last night. Sadly, I only snagged one piece of naan. Thanks for posting this so I can satisfy my naan craving!

    Oooh, now here’s a bread I might be able to make on my own. Alas, no yogurt in my fridge or I think I’d start making some now. Naan is delicious!

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
