These earthy baby mushrooms are tender, juicy, savory and the perfect bite size treat. These Air Fryer Mushrooms with Feta Cheese are so delicious and so easy to make.

Mushrooms are great for you and they are full of vitamins. I love them and I cook with mushrooms a lot. They’re very versatile and are perfect for stuffing. Portobello Mushrooms are one of the most commonly consumed mushrooms in the world and are a source of B vitamins, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, and copper.

Should I wash mushrooms to clean? Do no rinse mushrooms caps or stems with water! Mushrooms are like sponges and will absorb liquid quickly. Instead, just use a damp paper towel to remove excess dirt.

What is feta cheese?
Feta is a Greek white cheese made from sheep’s milk or from a mixture of sheep and goat’s milk. Feta is not cooked or pressed but is cured briefly in a brine solution that adds a salty flavor to the sharp tang of goat’s or sheep’s milk. Compared to other cheeses, it’s low in calories and fat.

If you can’t find feta cheese, then swap out for cheddar, mozzarella, or any other cheeses.  Please feel free to make changes and please share how it turned out.

What is an air fryer?
An air fryer is a miniature convection oven. It is a countertop cooking appliance that combines a heating element and a powerful fan to circulate hot air around your food so that it cooks more evenly and efficiently than in a normal oven. Air fryers produce foods that are crispy outside and moist and tender inside.

Fresh Spring Rolls

Fresh Spring Rolls

These Fresh Spring Rolls are a light and healthy appetizer or main dish. It is one of my all-time favorite recipes to make for a light lunch or dinner. I love everything about them – the freshness, the versatility, the healthful nature. And, I love how easy they are to make! This recipe is also vegan and gluten-free.

Ingredients & Substitutions
Vegetables. I have included my favorite combination of vegetables to use in this recipe. However, it is highly customizable and you can add any vegetables to your liking or use whatever you have on hand.
Maifun rice noodles. I love these rice noodles, but you can alternatively use white or brown rice noodles. The rice noodles are so tasty and make the spring rolls more hearty.
Spring roll wrappers or rice paper wrappers. These are thin, round, translucent sheets.

How to Make Fresh Spring Rolls

  • Begin by cooking the noodles according to package instructions. Then drain and rinse with cold water.
  • Then, prepare the filling ingredients and then thinly slice the carrot and cucumber. It’s important to have everything prepped and ready because you have to work quickly once you dip the spring roll wrappers in water.
  • Assemble spring rolls one at a time. Fill a shallow bowl or pan (wider than your wrappers) with warm water. Submerge spring roll wrapper until softened. Place wet spring roll wrapper on a clean and lightly wet cutting board.
  • Next, add lettuce, cilantro leaves and noodles on one half of the wrapper. Then, add avocado on the second half. Add carrots and cucumbers between lettuce and avocado.
  • Tightly roll up the lettuce side first, tuck in the sides then roll over the carrots, cucumbers, and avocado.
  • Repeat until all the ingredients have been used.
  • Finally, transfer finished rolls to a serving platter and keep finished spring rolls covered with a damp kitchen towel so they do not dry out.
  • Serve with sweet chili sauce and/or peanut sauce for dipping.

Healthy Ramen Bowl

Healthy Ramen Bowl

This Healthy Ramen Bowl recipe is an easy recipe that is full of flavor and vegetables. And, most importantly, it is ready in about 30 minutes! This ramen is not a traditional recipe, however is inspired by all of the delicious ramen I’ve enjoyed over the years.

Ramen is a Japanese noodle soup with a combination of a rich broth, noodles, a selection of meats or vegetables topped with a boiled egg. In Japan, ramen is considered a fast food. Many small restaurants and street vendors in Japan are offering a warming bowl of this delicious soup.

Ramen always consists of four elements: broth, sauce, ramen noodles and toppings. There is plenty of room for vegetables in this bowl. I love to use bok choy (Chinese cabbage) and kale to mix things up.

Healthy Ramen Bowl


Bok choy is a variety of Chinese white cabbage. And, it falls into the cruciferous vegetable category along with kale, Brussels sprouts, and broccoli. This vegetable is full of health-promoting nutrients, including a wide array of vitamins and minerals. Most importantly, it is low in both calories and carbs and a source of vitamins A, K, and C, as well as beta-carotene. It is a great vegetable to add to any diet. In addition, it has a delicate and slightly earthy taste similar to spinach with a crispy texture.

Healthy Ramen Bowl is one of the best dinner recipes ever. The delicious broth with all the toppings you love is just the comforting meal you need tonight.

While it is undeniably comfort food, it is in reality a wonderful dish easy to elevate with proper ingredients and customize to your own level of spiciness.
