INGREDIENTS FOR Pasta with Neapolitan sauce, mozzarella cheese and basil:

250g spaghetti

6 ripe red tomatoes⁣

2 onions⁣

2 cloves of garlic

5 basil leaves

3 tablespoons of olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste⁣

100g mozzarella cheese

METHOD OF Pasta with Neapolitan sauce, mozzarella cheese and basil

To prepare the sauce, we put the pan on the fire with plenty of water, make a cross with the knife over the tomatoes and bring to a boil.

⁣In about 5 minutes they will be perfect. We put them in cold water so we can peel them more easily. They will go directly to the blender jar to form a perfect tomato sauce.

⁣In a frying pan with a little oil over low heat, we will continue with the rest of the ingredients. ⁣

We will peel and finely chop the onion, you can also grate it, so that it integrates better into the sauce. In the same way, we will peel and chop the garlic. ⁣⁣We add them to the frying pan. When they are very soft, we will add the tomatoes. It’s time to adjust the flavors with the necessary salt and pepper. The tomatoes will take about 20 minutes on low heat to create a perfect sauce.

⁣While the tomato cooks, prepare the pasta, for this type of sauces with Italian pasta they are very good, but they will be perfect with anyone.⁣

Depending on the type of pasta, it will take more or less to be ready, the average is around 7 minutes. We add plenty of water and salt and when it starts to boil we have the spaghetti.

We drain the spaghetti and add the Neapolitan sauce on top and the mozzarella cheese in pieces. We can decorate with some fresh basil leaves and plenty of grated parmesan or whatever you want.

Sausage Hash Brown Bites are the perfect hand held breakfast, snack or appetizer to serve to your family and friends. Bite size balls that are made with ground sausage, frozen hash brown potatoes, cheese and baking mix.

They are fantastic to make ahead of time for a quick and easy breakfast on the go or as an addition to a brunch spread. However, my favorite time to serve them is at a tailgate party.

Because they can be served warm or at room temperature they can be set out on the table with the other food items. Then whenever there is a commercial or another break in the action, these little sausage hash brown bites can be eaten quickly and without a mess.

Sausage Hash Brown BITES with Syrup 

Although the sausage hash brown bites are delicious on their own, you can also serve them with a dipping sauce such as syrup, barbecue sauce or Ranch dressing.

Best of all there are no utensils or plates required to enjoy these treats. Just like when you make Hash Brown Egg Nests, simply take a bite or pop the entire thing in your mouth.

They hold up well and won’t crumble apart when eaten. And you can even add a little dipping sauce to make them even more delicious.

You can use syrup as the dipping sauce if you are serving them for breakfast. Although, if you are serving them at a party, I would suggest dipping them in barbecue sauce or even Ranch dressing.

However, they are so good on their own that no dipping sauce is required!

Quick n Easy Crispy Chicken Fitters RECIPE 

Crispy Low in carbs Chicken Fritters are a tasty and healthful appetizer that the whole family will enjoy. These fritters are absolutely wonderful and great any time of day, ready in well than 30 minutes and super easy to make.

Prep Time: 5minutes 

Cook Time: 25minutes 

Total Time: 30minutes 

 Servings: 15 fritters

Ingredients for quick n easy crispy chicken fitters 

• 450 g chicken breast strips ( 1 lb)
• 3 eggs
• 2 spring onions
• 1 tablespoon sour cream
• 1 tablespoon plain flour
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions for quick n easy crispy chicken fitters:

1. Add the chicken strips to a basin and cut them into tiny cubes.
2. Finely chop the spring onions and combine them with the eggs, sour cream, and flour in the same mixing dish.
3. Season to taste, then thoroughly combine to make a soft, batter-like consistency.
4. Heat a frying pan, add a few drops of oil at a time, and drop batter into the pan, like miniature nests or pancakes, with a spoon.
5. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side till cooked through, then take from pan and place on a plate lined with kitchen towel.
6. Serve right away!

NOTES:

• To make the chicken fritters even more flavorful, use freshly chopped dill or parsley; however, I only used spring onions this time, and they were delicious as well.
• I did not include cheese in these chicken fritters, but grated hard cheese would work well.
• The chicken breast must be chopped into very small cubes to achieve speedy and equal cooking. They’ll be lovely and delicate and ready in just 2-3 minutes per this manner.
• Don’t overcrowd the pan; I never make more than 4 fritters at a time because it’s much easier to turn them on the other side this way, and they cook more evenly. I’ve discovered that the same is true for patties.

How to Store and Reheat Chicken Fritters.

⭐Refrigerate the chicken fritters in an airtight container for 3-5 days. I’ve never frozen fried chicken fritters since we never have any left:).

⭐To reheat, place the chicken fritters in an air fryer or oven on low heat in a skillet. You can, of course, use your microwave.
