Air Fryer Catfish Nuggets

One of my fondest food memories as a child during the summertime was fried catfish! My brothers and uncle would spend the day fishing out on the lake and come home with catfish up to their ears! My mom would deep fry catfish filets and homemade hushpuppies and have coleslaw and tartar sauce on the side. It truly didn’t get any better than that!

My childhood years were really the only time I ate fried catfish. So when I moved back south this past year, not only was I craving fried catfish, but the exact preparation on how my mother used to make it.

Air Fryer Honey Mustard Salmon

Not sure what is wrong with me, but I am JUST now getting on the air fryer train! Maybe it’s because fried foods never did it for me, (hello sweet tooth) but now I am a changed woman.

Veggies, desserts, meats, I put EVERYTHING in my air fryer now!

And since air frying salmon has been the recent craze, I knew that was the first recipe I needed to post because it is quite literally the best cooking method for salmon.

Mexican Eggs Benedict

If I am going out for breakfast or Sunday brunch, the first thing my eyes search for is the keyword: benedict. I’m obsessed with the concept of having a carb, piece of meat, poached egg, creamy hollandaise sauce, and fun toppings all on one fork and for every bite. Talk about an explosion of flavors!

So why wait for the next brunch invitation when you can make eggs benedict at home! And sure, you can totally make the American classic eggs benedict which consists of two halves of an English muffin, each topped with Canadian bacon, a poached egg, and hollandaise sauce OR… you can make it my way = the spicy, healthy, and fun way!

Salted Dark Chocolate Chip Cookie Nice Cream Sandwiches

Hands. Down. My favorite dessert on this blog!

I feel like I always say that but as the stakes get higher, so does the quality of desserts and I’m telling you, this one will be hard to beat!

Honestly, if you just read the tag line and see notes of homemade, soft and chewy, drenched, salted on top of the best dessert words like ice cream, cookie, dark chocolate shell - it’s like my taste buds are crying for joy!

And my taste buds continue to cry as I make this dessert time and time again!

It’s honestly a flawed system because my intentions are to make a big batch, store them in the freezer, so that I can have them longer. But since I know that I have the best dessert ever in my freezer just seconds away from my room, I can’t help but to run straight to the freezer and possibly (cough* eat all of them within days…). Again, as my taste buds scream in delight - sorry, not sorry!

Apple Cider Churro Donuts

Last week, we had a local event in the area where business fronts downtown Hartwell would open their doors for women to shop, receive discounts in store all while enjoying delicious fall treats! In my office building, the chiropractor made warm apple cider, chocolate hummus, and goat cheese stuffed dates with chopped pistachios. So good!

Running on the apple cider train, I decided in my dreams that I should make some sort of apple cider donut! Haha, I swear, pressure to recipe development is where it’s at for me! As you can tell in the pictures, I have cute mini donuts sprinkled in and that is because my initial thought was to use them as a garnish for the apple cider!

Now, if you decide to use the apple cider churro donuts as a garnish for your apple cider or apple cider mimosas, then please take pictures and share - It would just be the cutest thing!
