Happy Monday, friends! Even though the new year started on Wednesday, it really feels like we kick off the new year today. My kids head back to school, and we are back into the usual routine. We had some fun over the holiday break, which I’ll share about more later this week. I also have been trying out some new recipes, and I’m excited to share them with you over the next few weeks.
First up are two "Buffalo" inspired dinners. These Buffalo Chicken Sweet Potato Bowls were full of flavor and got two thumbs up!
I followed this recipe as directed. The chicken cooks in the crockpot, which is a nice time saver during busy weekdays. I assembled the slaw in the morning, so it could absorb teh dressing throughout the day. I feel like slaw is better once the vegetables. have some time to marinate in the dressing. For this recipe, I used a broccoli slaw and it was delicious. I love this mayo, as it has really clean ingredients.
The third component were simply diced sweet potatoes that you bake. It was a really great combination of flavors.
Next up was this Buffalo Salmon. If you’ve been here for a while, then you know my family loves salmon. I’m always looking for new ways to cook it.
For this recipe, I seasoned the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Then I brushed on some buffalo sauce.
I love this one, as it has all clean ingredients. It is the same sauce I used in the above recipe as well.
I sprinkled on some panko bread crumbs, probably about one to 2 tablespoons and a little more garlic powder.
I put them in the air fryer at 375 for about 12 minutes. I would say they would take 12 to 15 minutes depending on how thick your salmon is.
On the side, I did some roasted buffalo cauliflower. I tossed cauliflower florettes with olive oil, salt and pepper and roasted them at 425 for about 25 minutes. When they came out, I tossed them with the same buffalo sauce, some fresh chopped celery and shredded carrots. Added a little crumbled blue cheese, and it was the perfect side for the buffalo salmon. We also did some roasted mashed potatoes. For the most part, a pretty hands off meal that can be ready in about 30 minutes!
Hope you give these a try, they were both winners at our house!
Wishing you a great Monday! See you back here later in the week, there is always room for one more at our family table.
