Meet the babies of the all-time popular Easy Cheesy Garlic Bread. Your new favorite party appetizer and snack.
EASY GARLIC CHEESE BOMBS
How can you ever say no to a warm, garlic butter roll filled with gooey cheese? I always say I can never give up cheese, bread and chocolate. I can take a break from it, but it would be really hard to give it up entirely. We are huge fans of appetizers and game day food and it seems like all of them are bread and cheese related. Needless to say, these babies are here to stay! And we already have more plans for them! 🙂

Pulled Pork Nachos - crispy tortilla chips, smoky, sweet pulled pork, melted cheddar and a drizzle of your favorite BBQ sauce - this appetizer will rock your world!
These nachos are the perfect way to use leftover Instant Pot Pulled Pork! Don't forget to top them with plenty of cheese and extra BBQ sauce.
PULLED PORK NACHOS
Who can resist a platter of crispy chips loaded with all the good food and topped with melty cheese! These nachos are for using up leftover pulled pork. I don't think you should make pulled pork just to make nachos. Pulled pork is the best eaten in a bun, with a side of slaw and baked beans. If you make a batch and happen to have some leftover the next day but want to make something new with it - these nachos are the answer! You could also make pulled pork for BBQ sliders for a party and use some of it for nachos. Two dishes using the same ingredients - score!!

Why You'll Love This Recipe
If you are looking for a healthier, leaner alternative to beef meatballs, turkey meat is a great choice. I always have a few pounds of ground turkey in my freezer and these meatballs are one of my favorite things to use them for.
You should know that turkey meat can be quite flavorless, especially since it does not contain much fat. Adding minced garlic and fresh onion (not in powdered spice form) is key to adding flavor. Grated Parmesan cheese and Italian herbs round up the flavor mixture!

We all have those days when we need dinner on the table quickly. My air fryer turns out to be invaluable when I am in a pinch. It cooks salmon to perfection in half the time and fries chicken nuggets until golden and crispy. I can also whip up veggies in minutes, like these sweet baby carrots. They are surprisingly delicious when air fried!
I used baby carrots because my kids enjoy them so I always have them on hand, they are sweet and quick to prepare. No chopping or peeling is needed! Just toss them with oil and seasoning and air fry until tender and delicious! Besides, the prep and clean-up are a breeze when I use the air fryer instead of the oven. Win-win!
