Cold Spaghetti
This cold spaghetti recipe is made with a fresh tomato, garlic, and basil sauce and is best in the summer when the tomatoes are fresh. It is a great side dish for lamb, but also great on its own.
Air Fryer Pakoras
These air fryer pakoras have all the things you love about pakoras but without the deep frying. Don't forget the yogurt dipping sauce!
Pumpkin Pie Muffins
I made this recipe this fall when I was craving something seasonal. After trying other recipes that just lacked that homey pumpkin-pie taste, I decided to make my own. It makes about 24 large muffins or 6 muffins and a loaf. Even though they last well in the refrigerator, you may want to halve the recipe for individuals or small families. Add some cream cheese frosting and they'd make great cupcakes.
