Spanakopita Spring Rolls

Spanakopita spring rolls are a delicious and crispy snack or appetizer that combines the flavors of traditional spanakopita (a Greek spinach pie) with the convenience of spring rolls. They are made with a filling of spinach, feta cheese, and dill, then wrapped in a spring roll wrapper, sprinkled with sesame seeds, and baked until golden brown. Serve with a lemony garlic yogurt dip.

Fried Cabbage With Noodles & Bacon

This Fried Cabbage With Noodles & Bacon is absolutely delicious. It is so simple and quick to make. What makes it is the addition of bacon, parmesan cheese, and a bit of lemon juice at the end. I sometimes have leftover cabbage and this is the perfect way to use it.  I will be putting this on repeat.

Spatchcock Chicken with Miso and Sesame Seeds

Spatchcock Chicken with Miso and Sesame Seeds is butterflied and roasted, so it cooks evenly. The miso glaze adds a rich, buttery flavor and it's finished with sesame seeds, which adds a nutty crunch. You could also just cut up the chicken instead of spatchcocking it to make it easier.

Pistachio Crusted Salmon

This Pistachio Crusted Salmon is delicious. The salmon gets slathered in Dijon mustard and honey (I used hot honey, of course) and then dipped in the pistachios. I just checked and found out I have 78 different salmon recipes on my blog! We try to eat salmon once a week.

Jalapeño Popper Chicken Chili

This Jalapeño Popper Chicken Chili is made with ground chicken, jalapeño peppers, corn, black beans, cream cheese, and a variety of spices. The chili can be cooked in either a pressure cooker or a slow cooker; I have given instructions for both.
The chili gets its heat from the jalapeño peppers, but you can adjust the spiciness to your liking by removing the seeds from the peppers or by adding more or fewer peppers. The cream cheese adds a richness and creaminess to the chili, and the spices give it a depth of flavor.
The chili can be served with a variety of toppings, such as shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, chopped bacon, and additional jalapeños. It is also great for meal prep, as it can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge or freezer.
