Korean Short Ribs w/ Ginger Soy Marinade
These Korean style short ribs use the cut of beef rib which is about 1/2-3/4-inch thick. Some butchers will sometimes be called a flake cut beef rib.There is instructions for cooking on the grill or in the oven, depending on which you prefer. Our favorite way is on the grill, but that isn’t always a feasible option and they still come out great in the oven. We’ll broil them to replicate the intense heat of the grill. Make sure to set your oven rack to be about 6-inches below the broiler element at the top of the oven.

If you are using the drier kind, add a little extra oil or butter to the pan at the beginning.Be ready to immediately add the egg to the pan after putting the chili crisp in. You don’t want the chili crisp to burn or else it will become bitter and the air will be like mace.

Low-Carb Air Fryer Scotch Eggs
We’re obsessed with these! Scotch eggs are the perfect breakfast and brunch dish. It’s always a great conversation piece when everyone sees the boiled egg stuffed in sausage. Use whatever your favorite sausage might be: Sweet Italian, Breakfast Sausage, Chicken Apple, etc. Don’t forget the swipe of mustard and hot sauce. Yum! You can also cook your "hard boiled eggs" in the air fryer too.

Garlic Parmesan Chicken Bites
You can use boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Our favorite are thighs because the flavor is more rich and chicken thigh bites are less dry. If you're cooking with chicken breast, make sure to eat them as soon as they're cooled. If you let chicken breast sit too long or get cold, they will taste dry and tough. Can you add veggies with this? Sure you can, but make sure it's a veggie that can cook quick at the same time as the chicken. Also, make sure to keep the veggies cut small.

Bologna Bowl in Microwave
Many people use multiple slices of bologna, but we find the egg doesn’t always cook the best with that much meat insulating it underneath. We personally like it with just one slice, but you do you.
