We are back with our breakfast meal preps! I wanted to egg bites, with tater tots this time! First, I preheated the oven to 375.

Homemade Pasta Round Two

I finally brought out the pasta attachment again. This time around I tried the 00-flour recipe. It turned out great, and I not sure if it’s better than semolina flour or not. But it will be a repeated recipe for sure. For this recipe, I also broke out the new kitchen scale as well, toContinue reading “Homemade Pasta Round Two”

Homemade Italian Bread

I love how my crusty Italian bread turned out. This time around I decided to try more of a loaf style Italian bread. Overall, a great recipe – that I will make again!

Baked Mac and Cheese with Stewed Tomatoes

I love mac and cheese, especially baked mac and cheese. I can remember, as a child, eating at my Nana’s and she made hers with stewed tomatoes.

Most of the time you don’t want to put forth the effort to cook it LOL.Continue reading “Chinese Pork BBQ and Veggies”

Creamy Truffle Pasta with Beef Bites

I had some beef stew pieces in the freezer and I was in the mood for a creamy pasta with beef and mushrooms (one that wasn’t stroganoff). This is how I threw this quick and easy dinner together. For the beef chunks, I wanted to do them in the air fryer. I seasoned them withContinue reading “Creamy Truffle Pasta with Beef Bites”

Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes

I love sweet potatoes, especially during the fall season! Even more so when I can get them locally from The Goat! I was looking for an easy and quick way to prep them and decided why not air fry them. First, I started by washing them off and dicing them. I preheated the air fryerContinue reading “Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes”

Fish and Chips

I love a good fish and chips, especially with malt vinegar and a beer LOL. After finding fresh caught cod at Costco – a quick easy fish and chips meal was created. I say quick and easy, because I used frozen steak fries, that were heated in the air fryer and store-bought coleslaw to completeContinue reading “Fish and Chips”
