Mouth Watering Jalapeno Poppers
Hey Everyone!
Today’s post is a recipe for jalapeno poppers. We just got an air fryer and it is my new favorite thing. It’s so nice to be able to fry things but in a healthy way! I know that jalapeno poppers aren’t the most healthy thing in the world, but you have to enjoy life sometimes!! I got my recipe from Pinterest from cookswellwithothers.com. As always, I have tweaked it to my liking.
Ingredients:
¼ cup Precut Real Bacon Bits
6 oz Cream Cheese (room temp)
½ cup of Mexican Blend Shredded Cheese
6 Jalapeno Peppers
Recipe:
- Mix together the cream cheese, shredded cheese, and bacon in a bowl.
- Cut your jalapenos in half length-wise and remove all seeds.
- Preheat your airfryer to 370 degrees. Click on, then preheat, change the temperature.
- Stuff your mixture into each of your peppers. Place them cheese side up in your airfryer and cook for 8 minutes. Enjoy!

Savory Steamed Broccoli
Hi Everyone!
Today I am talking about a healthy snack that is quick and easy to make, steamed broccoli! I know a lot of us are working from home these days and I don’t know about you but I have been browsing my pantry and fridge for snacks all day long. It’s weird how when you aren’t home you don’t feel hungry as often. The hardest part for me is trying to snack on something healthy! I have a solution to this problem, at least for some of the time.
Ingredients
1-2 Broccoli Crowns (I like the crowns because they are cheaper, usually about $1 a crown)
4 Cups Water
Spray Butter (to liking)
Salt/Pepper for Taste
Instructions
- Start boiling your water in a medium saucepan.
- While you are waiting, cut your broccoli crowns into small pieces to your preference. Add these to your steamer basket.
- Once the water starts boiling and your broccoli is in your steamer basket, place the steamer basket into your saucepan and cover. Change heat to medium. Set a timer for 10 minutes.
- When the timer goes off, remove from heat and enjoy! I like to add I can’t believe it’s not butter spray butter and salt/pepper to taste!
I always try to keep a few crowns of broccoli in my fridge, along with other fruits and vegetables so that I can eat healthier snacks. I have even found that when I make too much broccoli for a snack you can just put it in the fridge and it heats up really well. Making it even easier to choose to eat something healthy. I have added a link below to a steamer basket that is similar to mine!

Perfect Summer Snack
Hey Everybody!
Today’s recipe is one for dried strawberries. They are super easy to make and make a great, healthy snack. Healthy snacks are often hard to find or they go bad very quickly. These are one of my favorite summer snacks. They also work very well to curb your sugar cravings!
Ingredient
2 lb. Strawberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
- Prepare a cookie sheet with tinfoil and parchment paper (the tinfoil underneath the parchment paper), using only one will make cleaning up difficult.
- Cut the strawberries into thin slices (about 1/8 inch) from the tip up to the stem.
- Place them on the parchment paper side by side, be careful not to push them together as you will be flipping them over halfway through baking them.
- Place the cookie sheet into the oven for two hours.
- Remove from the oven and let them sit for about fifteen minutes.
- Flip them all over and place back in the oven for an additional hour.
- Let them sit overnight to dry out a little bit more.
- Place them in a container or enjoy immediately.
I have a few tips about this recipe that I have learned through making them several times. The thinner you can slice the strawberries the better. If your strawberries are starting to go bad in your fridge, they will work perfectly with this recipe. Without the tin foil, the strawberries make the cookie sheet very sticky and difficult to clean. Without the parchment paper, the strawberries stick to the tin foil and you cannot flip them very easily.
