Air Fryer Okra "Fries"
I love the taste of deep-fried okra. Sometimes though, I want to limit my carbs, so I make okra "fries". They give me the flavor of fried okra, but with far fewer calories, and much less fat. Okra "fries" are a tasty snack and they can be an interesting veggie side for dinner. I love to munch them, plain, as a snack. Serve with dipping sauce of your choice.

Slow Cooker Venison Sloppy Joes
This recipe for venison Sloppy Joes comes from my friend who is a guide in Alaska. It's excellent for sandwiches on rolls with sharp Cheddar cheese. Yum yum! It's slow-cooked in a slow cooker so even the toughest of roasts or stew meats will work; eventually the meat just falls apart! It's also good served over hot cooked rice.
