Ham and Cheese Frittata
This ham and cheese frittata is great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Feel free to experiment with the ingredients. If you love an ingredient, add more. Don't like one much, add less. It's a very versatile recipe.
Apple-Thyme Chutney
This is my favorite side for turkey or any type of roast and a staple on our Thanksgiving table. Making it in the slow cooker prevents splattering. I usually make it the day before, store in the fridge, and then heat over low heat the day of. You can also freeze or can it. For canning, I usually make a double batch, which makes 2 1-pint jars.
Air-Fried Butter Cake
This is a basic butter cake; the trickiest bit was finding a cake tin to fit in the air fryer. I went with a ring tin, which works really well and makes it cook even quicker. Top with confectioners' sugar.
