Chocolate Eggnog Milkshake
This milkshake is creamy, indulgent, and the perfect holiday treat. Some nice toppings for the whipped cream are grated chocolate, mini chocolate chips, or even a sprinkle of gingersnap crumbs. It can easily be turned into an adult beverage by adding vodka, rum, a shot of Kailua, or Irish cream.
Harissa Roasted Cauliflower
To make this harissa roasted cauliflower, I strongly suggest getting a harissa paste from a Middle-Eastern market. Keep in mind it can range from mild to spicy. I personally love harissa but never thought to use it on vegetables. If you like to try new things, this definitely brings the flavor.
Air Fryer Hamburgers
These air fryer hamburgers are perfect for when it's too cold to grill and you're craving a juicy burger! The butter and bouillon mixture gives these air fryer hamburger patties a dark grilled color and deep beefy flavor. Add your favorite seasonings, if desired, but these are delicious as is! If you'd like to add cheese, turn off the air fryer once the patties are done and let the residual heat melt the cheese. Make sure you use cold meat, straight from the fridge, for best results.
