Once it thaws, pop it in the air fryer for a few minutes and your meal is ready. Make Easy-to-Fix Meals in Your Air Fryer Like easy-to-fix meals but not salmon?

Easy to Fix Meals for Two on Easter Weekend Cooking on Easter weekend is best with a slow cooker because there is very little food preparation to do. A slow-cooked ham is so easy. Buying a ham works well for two people because it goes a long way. You can make many meals out of a large ham. One Saturday before Easter, I made breakfast with eggs, ham, and Thomas Nooks and Crannies English muffins. These muffins are light and are multigrain. They have 100 calories, eight grams of fiber, less than 1 g sugar, 170 mg sodium, and 0 g saturated fat. The hamRead More →

Forgot about New Year’s resolutions for losing weight already? Let me show you a way to success in losing those extra unwanted pounds. Frustrated with being overweight? I can understand. It seems like you’ve done everything, tried diet after diet, and you still don’t lose weight. If anything, you gain. And the older you get, the harder it is to lose the weight. When I was a teenager, my wise dad told me, “Honey, you’ll have to watch your weight for the rest of your life.” At the time, I didn’t fully understand what that bit of wisdom fully entailed. Now, in my fifties, IRead More →

Looking for an easy kind of meat to cook in the slow cooker? Try pork chops. Just thaw them out the night before, and put them in the slow cooker the next morning to cook on low all day. Pork chops occasionally go on sale for 99 cents per pound at this one grocery store I shop at. I’ll buy a few packages and freeze them. They are good pan fried, grilled, baked, broiled, and cooked in the slow cooker. One of the pork chop recipes I’ve tried in my Rival Crock-Pot is a quick way to cook in the slow cooker. I first brownRead More →

How do you make slow cooker mini garlic potatoes? If you haven’t used those cute little red, yellow, and purple potatoes yet, you’ll like this easy slow cooker meal. Those mini colorful potatoes are called fingerlings and go great in stews. I grew up mostly with Irish potatoes in stews and pot roasts. But the fingerlings make a nice root vegetable stew. Funny Food Story Speaking of stews, I have a funny memory of my oldest niece and nephew right after a holiday. Mother, my sisters-in-law, the two little ones, and I went on a shopping trip one day. On the way back, my niece,Read More →
