Air Fryer Hearts of Palm Sticks
I'd never seen a recipe for air fryer hearts of palm sticks but I'd seen artichoke hearts and mozzarella sticks fried in the air fryer, so I thought...why not? What a pleasant surprise! They take on the look of mozzarella sticks but have a tangy, meaty texture in the center. I serve them with marinara sauce for dipping, and ranch salad dressing would also be great.
Shrimp and Okra Gumbo
I like to add crabmeat to this hearty soup as well. Serve over rice with crusty French bread. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad
This easy chicken Caesar pasta salad is a summertime favorite. We sometimes make it with shrimp instead of chicken.
