These low-calorie, low-fat egg white bites make a quick weekday breakfast and they're equally as convenient for midday snacks. In order not to waste egg yolks and to save time, I like to use a carton of liquid egg whites. Egg whites tend to be rubbery, so adding in the cottage cheese helps make them creamier. You can store extras in the freezer and reheat as needed.

Air Fryer New York Strip Steak
These New York strip steaks were quite good, done in the air fryer, in about 10 minutes of active cooking time. Everybody has their special touches when it comes to steak, so I'll invite you to use the seasonings you prefer. The method is what is important, and it truly is quite simple. It was wonderful to have steak without standing at the grill in the heat, or firing up the broiler inside!
Best Hummus
I make this hummus at least once a week — it's so simple to make in just 10 minutes, yet it tastes delicious! I got this recipe from my late grandfather who was of Lebanese descent. Serve with warm pita bread.
Pumpkin Hummus, Caramelized Onion and Fontina Cheese Pizzas
Use the pumpkin hummus recipe from this site to make this amazing pizza. I love to fool around in the kitchen and I came up with this pizza and my parents love it. For the onions, cut them from one root end to the others and then slice them in little strips between the roots. They will be narrower on the ends and this keeps them from disintegrating during the caramelizing and cooking process.
