Dinner Recipes Vegetarian Recipes

Since so many Thanksgiving dishes are loaded with butter and cream, I wanted to create a vegan dish for my friends that would still feel decadent and satisfying. Well, these turned out so delicious that Jeff and I have been eating them for lunch just on their own! You have all of the flavors of fall here, plus a killer savory-sweet combo. If you haven't joined the delicata squash bandwagon yet, you're really missing out! You can eat the cooked skins, so they're much easier to prepare than ... continue reading...

Air Fryer Recipes Appetizer Recipes Side Dish Recipes Turkey Recipes

I'm going out on a limb here--these air-fried egg rolls are BETTER than most of the deep fried ones I've had. If you follow me on Instagram (@litecravings), you know about my new obsession--this Simple Livings XL Air Fryer. I avoided the air-fryer hype for a long time. People have been living their whole lives just making crispy things in the oven, so why would I need another appliance? I was so wrong. This appliance is pure magic.That being said, you can definitely make these in a regular oven, ... continue reading...
