Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 chicken thighs, skin-on and bone-in
  • Juice and zest of 2 limes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 head of garlic, roasted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix lime juice, lime zest, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add chicken thighs to the marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.
  3. While the chicken is marinating, boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  4. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes with roasted garlic, heavy cream, and butter until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Place marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Serve the chicken thighs alongside the creamy roasted garlic mashed potatoes. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For extra flavor in the mashed potatoes, add some chopped fresh herbs like parsley or chives before serving.

For best results, allow the chicken thighs to marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight in the refrigerator for deeper flavor. If you don’t have fresh garlic for the mashed potatoes, garlic powder can be used as a substitution, just adjust to taste.

Leftover chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through. These chicken thighs are also fantastic in salads or wraps the next day!

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 medium cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes, then let cool slightly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add the cooled cauliflower, sweet chili sauce, egg, lime zest, and lime juice to the dry mixture. Stir until well combined.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the oil, flattening them slightly into fritters.
  5. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with lime wedges or fresh cilantro.

Notes

Tip: For a lighter version, you can bake these fritters at 400°F (200°C) for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

To ensure your fritters are extra crispy, make sure to drain any excess moisture from the cauliflower after steaming. You can also experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor to your liking.

If you want to keep these fritters gluten-free, use almond flour or a gluten-free flour blend as a substitute. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat them in the oven to maintain their crispiness.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 package spring roll wrappers
  • Cooking spray or oil for spraying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine shredded carrots, cabbage, bell peppers, cilantro, lime juice, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well to combine.
  2. Lay a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface, with one corner facing you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture near the bottom corner.
  3. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the sides in and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a little water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  5. Arrange the spring rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  6. Cook the spring rolls for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  7. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For a gluten-free option, use rice paper wrappers instead of traditional spring roll wrappers.

For the best results, make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow for even cooking. If you’re looking for a twist, consider adding some diced avocado or tofu for extra creaminess and protein. These spring rolls can also be served with your favorite dipping sauce such as sweet chili or a tangy soy sauce.

Store any leftover spring rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes to regain their crispiness.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 12 large cremini mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup basil pesto
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Set the caps aside.
  3. Finely chop the mushroom stems and combine them in a mixing bowl with the basil pesto, cream cheese, half of the grated Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Stuff each mushroom cap with the pesto-cream cheese mixture, packing it generously.
  5. Sprinkle the tops with breadcrumbs and the remaining Parmesan cheese for added crunch.
  6. Place the stuffed mushrooms on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the tops are golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before garnishing with fresh basil leaves. Serve warm.

Notes

Note: These mushrooms are best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven for optimal texture.

For a lighter version, consider using low-fat cream cheese instead of regular. If you don’t have pesto on hand, a mixture of chopped fresh herbs like basil, parsley, and a bit of garlic can work as a substitute.

To reheat leftovers, simply place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through. These stuffed mushrooms also pair wonderfully with a crisp salad for a simple meal!

  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 2 cups sparkling water or soda
  • Ice cubes
