🧠 Coach's Tip of the Week
Small steps, big balance. Take small adjustment steps into the ball instead of one big lunge — quick, compact footwork keeps your weight balanced and ready to move in any direction for the next shot. It's a simple habit that pays off on every kind of court, from tennis to pickleball.
🥗 Recipe of the Week: Harvest Turkey & Sweet Potato Skillet
A cozy one-pan dinner that pairs lean ground turkey with sweet potato, bell pepper, and spinach — warming enough for cooler fall evenings and easy enough for a weeknight after class. 😋
🕒 Prep: 10 min · Cook: 20 min · Serves 4 (about 1.5 cups each)
🛒 Ingredients: • 1 tbsp olive oil • 1 lb lean ground turkey • 2 cups sweet potato, peeled and diced small (about 1 medium) • 1 small yellow onion, diced • 1 red bell pepper, diced • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 1 tsp smoked paprika • 1/2 tsp ground cumin • 1/2 tsp dried thyme • Salt and pepper, to taste • 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth (or water) • 2 cups baby spinach • Optional: crumbled feta or shredded cheese, for topping
👩🍳 How to make it: 1️⃣ Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8–10 minutes until it begins to soften. 2️⃣ Add the onion and bell pepper; cook 4–5 minutes more until softened. 3️⃣ Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet, add the ground turkey, and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 5–6 minutes. 4️⃣ Stir in the garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, thyme, salt, and pepper; cook 1 minute until fragrant. 5️⃣ Pour in the broth, cover, and simmer 5 minutes so the sweet potato finishes cooking through. 6️⃣ Stir in the spinach and cook just until wilted, about 2 minutes. 7️⃣ Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve warm, topped with feta or shredded cheese if using.
