Fresh Salmon Burgers in the Air Fryer

I grew up on salmon patties but using fresh salmon and cooking in the air fryer makes all the difference in the world. If made as directed, you don't even need an egg to combine. Serve on toasted buns with fixings of choice, such as mustard, mayo, lettuce, tomato, onions, or cheese.

Italian Cream Cheese and Ricotta Cheesecake

This ricotta cheesecake is my grandmother's recipe passed down to my entire family. It's the best! I can't believe I'm sharing it, but everyone needs to know how to make an authentic Italian cheesecake. It is creamy and not thick, which is why our family loves it!

Shirazi Salad

Shirazi salad is known for its fine, uniform dice. The closer you can get to 1/4-inch dice on the veggies the better. Look for ab ghooreh (sour grape juice) at Middle Eastern markets.

You can tweak this with low-fat and low-calorie ingredients. Sometimes I like to add whipped cream and caramel as a topping.
