The Trick for Great Avocado Fries Avocado fries are just what they sound like: strips of avocado that are breaded (I like using panko breadcrumbs) and then fried. They’re traditionally baked or made in a deep fryer, but they work great in the air fryer! The trick to good avocado fries is all about which avocados you use. You should use slightly under-ripe avocados for avocado fries. Not completely firm, but not soft....
They are easy to make and they are so flavorful, especially with the tasty dipping sauce. Chicken tenders are like magic. You take the blandest of meats - chicken breast - coat it in a tasty coating, bake or fry, and you’ve got yourself a tasty, crispy delicacy! This is an easy recipe - for sure easier than deep-frying (though perhaps not as easy as these grilled tenders). Coat the chicken pieces in seasoned almond flour, bake them for 15 minutes in a 450F oven, then briefly broil to brown them....
Great chilled or at room temperature. Perfect for picnics or potlucks! Serve it over chopped lettuce, in a sandwich, in lettuce wraps, or our favorite, tossed with Japanese buckwheat soba noodles. My advice? Make a double batch. This one disappears quickly. Serve with lettuce, or mixed in with cold, cooked soba noodles.

Carnitas translates to “little meats” and generally refers to pork that has been braised until tender then shredded and then fried to crisp it up. How should I serve carnitas? Carnitas can be enjoyed as a main meat dish, served up with some Mexican Rice, Street Corn, or refried beans. Carnitas can also be used as a filling for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and quesadillas. We enjoy serving them up on some warm corn or flour tortillas with a little chopped cilantro, diced red onion, and crumbled queso fresco....
Avocado is at the top of my list. Yes of course there are other favorites—artichokes, blueberries, a good steak—but avocado is queen of them all. As long as I can remember, my family has always had avocados in the house, either out on the counter ripening, or in the fridge. For a couple glorious years we even had an avocado tree, until it died in a freeze. :-( So no wonder my father’s most treasured sandwich is, as he affectionately calls it, the A....

How to do it? Simply mix ground bacon into the ground beef. You can go for a 50/50 ratio, but I prefer to add 4 oz of bacon for each 1 lb. of ground beef. I started making these burgers after I transitioned to a low-carb diet. Suddenly, with no bun, the burger became the star of the show, and I wanted it to be as flavorful and as juicy as possible....
You can make them ahead of time and gently reheat them in a low oven, or even serve them at room temperature. They keep well in the fridge for several days. Stuffed jalapenos are easily one of my favorite snacks. The combination of smoky bacon, spicy peppers, and melty cheesy filling is so incredibly good. In this easy oven-baked version, the jalapenos are stuffed with a creamy filling of cream cheese and cheddar, wrapped in bacon, and baked into melty perfection....
That original version featured barbecue sauce and chicken (duh) along with mozzarella, smoked Gouda, red onion, and a sprinkle of cilantro after it came out of the oven. How To Make Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken Pizza This sheet pan recipe is fairly similar to the original except I pare it down to one cheese and skip the cilantro in favor of thinly sliced jalapeño, which I think is the key to making the pizza really shine....
But over the years, I have come to expect more from my green bean casserole than just opening up a few cans of beans, soup, and sprinkling on some prepared fried onions. Here is my totally from-scratch version – you’ll never look at green bean casserole the same way again. Video: How to Make Green Bean Casserole Homemade Fried Onion Topping – Better Than French’s! Frying your own onions gives them a crunchy texture that can’t be beaten by anything from a can....

Long before I had any idea what those words meant, or what an herb even was, I was singing those syllables at the top of my lungs, as a kid in the ’60s playing the vinyl record I bought with allowance money. What these fine herbs were doing in the lyrics of an old English ballad, a lover’s duet no less, I haven’t a clue. But the result was, at least for this kid, a lifelong curiosity about them....

Once you pull out your tub of flour, sugar and other ingredients onto the counter, it will honestly take you less than 10 minutes to prepare. In fact, you will probably have to start preheating your oven before you start preparing the batter....
It’s my go-to breakfast blend mostly because I love the taste, but I also love doing something good for myself first thing in the morning (sidenote: there’s no rule that says you can’t enjoy this any time of day!). If you’re a smoothie lover like me here are 5 tips to making the best smoothies possible!

Typically grocers stop carrying even frozen cranberries after January, so if you like all things cranberry, it pays to buy extra when they are in season. Usually for cranberry sauce, we cook cranberries the old fashioned way, boiling them in a little water with sugar. This brandied cranberry recipe is firmer than typical sauce, with jewels of spiked candied cranberries. Serve it like a chutney — with pork, turkey or chicken, or as a topping for baked brie or a festive component of a cheese board....

This dish is fairly easy to put together and you don’t need to boil the gnocchi as I did especially if using refrigerated gnocchi....
I know clementines are considered quite christmassy, but I’m still buying them! I have a large three-tier wire basket in my kitchen that holds my veg, herbs and citrus fruits. I didn’t realise at the time I bought it, but it holds LOADS! I mean, I could probably keep a couple of chimps in lunches for the week with the amount of citrus fruit it holds. Fortunately my local supermarket has been selling large boxes of clementines, so along with our weekly amount of grapefruit, oranges, lemons and limes, I’ve been able to fill it pretty well....
The quirky and intriguing name of this British comfort food doesn’t give a clue to what it is! Most sources attribute it to the sound made when the ingredients hit a hot skillet. According to Encyclopedia Britannica, it goes back to the 18th century when it was made with leftovers from Sunday roast. Modern versions are often meatless and, like the Irish colcannon, almost always consist of potatoes and cabbage or kale, and are served as a side dish....
