These air fryer fish tacos are unique. Unlike most fish taco recipes, the slaw in this recipe is air-fried instead of raw, creating a caramelized version that leaves the fish to be the crispy star of the show.

Vietnamese Sandwich
While teaching English in Asia for the past several years, I've been lucky to exchange some delicious and genuine recipes with local people. This Vietnamese banh mi sandwich is awesome and a nice break from the usual sandwiches. The garlic chili sauce is typical in Asian sections of markets, but you can substitute it with Indonesian sambal or Korean chili paste. Beer or red wine is the beverage to serve with this bona fide French-influenced Vietnamese recipe.

Ham and Cheddar Sous Vide Egg Bites
Like most people, my mornings are rushed. I love to make these on the weekend for a quick, protein-filled breakfast during the week. They reheat well and are good for 5 days in the fridge. The texture is light and airy.
