Navajo Tacos
A traditional Indian fry bread topped with a chili-style meat and bean mixture and taco-type toppings like shredded Cheddar cheese, chopped lettuce, and sour cream. A family favorite. Serve the leftovers as dessert with honey, butter, or sugar and cinnamon.
Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts
Air fryer bacon wrapped Brussels sprouts come together by the time your grilled meat is finished resting. I serve this simple side dish with grilled steak, but these sprouts are equally good with chicken or pork.
Crunchy Ramen Coleslaw
This crunchy coleslaw is a great side dish or salad. I like to use spicy ramen noodles for a more zesty flavor! This recipe is even better the next day.
