👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Halve and scoop avocados into a bowl. Mash to your preferred consistency — chunky works best here.
- 2Add lime juice, red onion, jalapeño, tomato, cilantro, cumin, salt and pepper. Fold together.
- 3Fold in smoked salmon gently — you want pieces, not mush.
- 4Taste and adjust seasoning.
- 5Serve with bell pepper strips for dipping. Budget tip: Swap smoked salmon for a pan seared center cut salmon fillet. More protein, less cost.
- 6Mix Greek yogurt, mayo, lime juice, salt and pepper in a bowl.
- 7Add shredded chicken and red onion. Fold to coat. Gently fold in chunky avocado — don’t mash it. Note: Keep cucumbers separate until ready to eat for maximum crunch.
- 8When ready, add cucumbers and toss briefly. Serve in keto tortillas or eat straight as a salad.
- 9Finely chop shrimp, roasted peppers, olives and capers — everything roughly the same size. Combine in a bowl with olive oil, lemon juice and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Toss well.
- 10Spoon into avocado halves or over cucumber rounds. Finish with Citrus Pepper seasoning right before serving.
- 11Dice turkey and roughly chop eggs. Add to a bowl. Mix kalamata olives, olive oil and garlic together. Add to bowl.
- 12Add labneh and fold together gently — keep the texture, don’t over mix. Then red onion, parsley, hemp hearts, red pepper flakes and Land seasoning. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
- 13Serve alongside romaine leaves and wrap like egg rolls.
- 14Preheat air fryer to 375°F.
- 15Mix ground chicken with baking powder, Land seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper until fully combined.
- 16Line air fryer basket with parchment. Spread chicken mixture as thin and even as possible — thinner means crispier. Air fry 18–22 minutes until edges are golden and center is crispy.
- 17Let cool 10 minutes — they crisp up more as they cool. Break into chips and serve.
