Indian Vegetable Bhaji

Bhaji is a fry, so do not add water and you will really enjoy the drier variety of an Indian curry. Great with breads like naan or paratha, or with rice and daal (Indian lentil soup).

Air Fryer Brats

Forget about the weather and cooking outside with these air fryer brats! There’s no reason to fire up the grill when you can get crispy brats this juicy and tender with perfect texture from an air fryer. We like ours on a hoagie bun with German mustard and sauerkraut.

I made these coconut chocolate Rice Krispies Treats to change up the normal every day recipe a little bit one day when my 6 year old son and I were looking through the kitchen to see what we could add.
